Slides AI

What is Slides AI?

Slides AI is a Google Slides add-on that uses artificial intelligence to automatically generate presentation slides from text prompts, outlines, or topics. Instead of being a standalone presentation tool, it works directly within Google Slides, leveraging GPT models to create slide content, layouts, and suggested designs based on your input. You simply describe what you want to present, and Slides AI generates a complete slide deck with titles, body text, bullet points, and suggested layouts—all editable in the familiar Google Slides interface. It's designed for anyone who needs to create presentations quickly but prefers working in Google Workspace rather than learning new platforms.

Best For

Slides AI is ideal for Google Workspace users who want AI presentation assistance without leaving their familiar tools, students and educators creating class presentations quickly, and business professionals turning reports, briefs, or meeting notes into visual presentations. It excels when you have written content (an outline, document, or topic) that needs to become a presentation but don't want to manually format slides. For teams already invested in Google Workspace who want AI capabilities without adopting new platforms like Gamma or Tome, Slides AI brings AI slide generation directly into Google Slides.

Key Features

How does Slides AI generate presentations?
You install Slides AI as a Google Slides add-on, then use it from the extensions menu within any Google Slides presentation. Enter a topic, paste an outline, or describe what you want to present, and Slides AI generates a complete deck with suggested sections, content for each slide, and layouts. The AI understands presentation structure, creating title slides, agenda slides, content slides with bullet points, and summary slides in logical order.

Can Slides AI work from existing documents or notes?
Yes—you can paste text from Google Docs, meeting notes, reports, or any written content, and Slides AI will structure it into slides. This is particularly useful for turning written briefs into visual presentations, or transforming research notes into lecture slides. The AI identifies key points and organizes them into slide-appropriate chunks.

What customization options does Slides AI offer?
After AI generation, you have full Google Slides editing capabilities—change layouts, adjust fonts and colors, add images, reorganize slides, or rewrite content. Slides AI provides the foundation and structure; you refine it to match your brand and message. The output is a standard Google Slides file, so all native features (collaboration, commenting, presenting, exporting) work normally.

How does pricing work for Slides AI?
Slides AI uses a credit system where each presentation generation consumes credits. You purchase credit packs based on usage needs rather than subscribing to monthly plans. This can be more cost-effective for occasional users compared to subscription-based AI presentation tools.

Pricing & Plans

• Free Plan: 3 presentation generations per month (approximately 30 slides total), basic features
• Pay As You Go: $10 for 10 presentations, $20 for 25 presentations (credits don't expire)
• Pro: $15/month - Unlimited presentations, premium features, priority support
• Team: Custom pricing - Centralized billing, team management, priority support

The free tier lets you test functionality. Pay-as-you-go is cost-effective for occasional users. Pro makes sense if you create presentations frequently (more than 3-5 per month).

Getting Started

Open Google Slides and install the Slides AI add-on from the Google Workspace Marketplace. Create a new blank presentation in Google Slides, then open Slides AI from the Extensions menu. Describe your presentation topic or paste in your outline/text. Choose the number of slides you want and any style preferences. Click generate and Slides AI will populate the presentation with content and layouts. Review the output, edit content as needed, adjust designs to match your branding, and add any additional media or formatting before presenting.

Limitations

• Google Slides only: Only works within Google Slides, not PowerPoint, Keynote, or standalone presentation tools
• Credit limits on free tier: 3 presentations per month is restrictive for regular users
• Quality variation: AI-generated content requires editing; not all outputs are presentation-ready without refinement
• Limited design sophistication: Layouts are functional but less polished than platforms like Gamma or Tome that are built specifically for AI presentation generation
• Requires Google account: Must use Google Workspace; not accessible to users on other platforms
• No built-in image generation: Focuses on text and layout; you must add images manually from Google Slides' image search or your own uploads
