Free vs Premium — a straight comparison
We sell Premium because heavy users cost real compute — not because we hid export behind a paywall.
Same on both plans
- Editable 16:9 canvas
- Standard and Smart generation
- Speaker notes
- Present in browser
- Native PPTX export
What Premium adds
- No daily generate cap for normal team use
- Higher queue priority at peak times
- Larger decks and advanced AI editing features
Who stays on Free
Solo operators who ship one important deck a day, students, and anyone proving the workflow before asking finance for a card.
Who should upgrade
Agencies, sales pods, and founders in active raise or launch windows where waiting in queue is not acceptable. If you hit the cap twice in a week, the math usually works.
