Yesterday, information saying, “If you’re making a presentation, use gamma.app,” reached me from 2 independent directions.
So I started by trying the free version.
To give you the conclusion first, it is quite impressive.
It also supports output in Japanese. That is the best thing about it. I have subscribed to beautiful.ai since before the pandemic, but it supports only English.
Another good feature, although still in beta, is its ability to import content from a URL and turn it into slides. It is ideal for someone like me who writes large amounts of text for blogs and elsewhere. To start with, I used the free version to import my recent blog post about deepfakes and identity, and this is what it created. Note that this is the quality before I made any adjustments at all. In practice, I would then edit anything that looked odd.
What Is Gamma.app?
Gamma.app is an online tool that makes it easy to create presentations, websites, and documents.
Key Features
- Multiple output formats: Gamma.app can create not only presentations but also websites and documents.
- Automatic image and layout generation: It automatically generates images suited to the content. (However, text within the generated images and similar details are unreliable, so it appears necessary to recreate them in a similar style.)
- Import source content from a URL: In addition to pasting text or having AI create content from a prompt, you can paste the URL of a blog post or other material and import its content.
- Template import: You can import an existing PowerPoint file and adjust such elements as the color scheme to match it.
- PowerPoint compatibility: You can export a presentation you created to PowerPoint and apply an existing template.
- Multilingual support: It can produce output in a variety of languages, including Japanese.
Tips for Using It
After researching with Genspark or Perplexity, turn the results into a blog post with Claude. Import that blog URL into Gamma.app 1, create the presentation, export it to PowerPoint, and apply your favorite template 2. This lets you combine Gamma.app’s innovative features with the brand image of an existing PowerPoint template.
Pricing Plans
Gamma.app has 3 pricing plans:
- Free plan: Ideal for trying the basic features.
- Plus plan: ¥1,200 per month when billed annually.

Summary
Gamma.app is a tool with considerable potential that creates good-looking presentations even in Japanese. It has many appealing features, including AI-powered capabilities, multiple output formats, and compatibility with existing tools.
Anyone who wants to create content efficiently, including presentations, should give this tool a try. The availability of a free plan also makes it easy to get started.

Footnotes
- The article that reached me included an intermediate process: importing the report into Mapify to create and revise a mind map, then exporting the logic tree in Markdown.
- Perhaps this step will eventually become unnecessary.
