Decks, docs and sites generated from a prompt
Gamma turns a prompt or a pasted document into a deck, a page or a small website, then lets you edit the result the way you would edit a document rather than by dragging boxes around a slide. Everything it makes is responsive, so the same file reads properly on a phone. Credits meter the generation and the free plan starts you with four hundred of them. Export goes out to PDF, PowerPoint and Google Slides.
Our note
Gamma is the fastest route from a rough idea to something presentable, and the credit system is the thing to watch rather than the seat price. Canva does more if you want to art-direct the result; this wins when the deck is a means to an end.

Short AI video clips from text or an image
Pika generates short video from a text prompt or a still image, with a set of effects that inflate, crush or otherwise deform whatever you feed it. Output is measured in seconds, so the honest use is a social post or a title card rather than a scene. A free tier exists and credits are what runs out.
Our note
Pika is the one to reach for when you want something to happen to an object, and the effects library is genuinely better than prompting for the same result elsewhere. For a coherent shot lasting more than a few seconds, Runway or Luma will disappoint you less.
