In short
Gamma makes presentations, documents and simple websites from a prompt or an outline. Its cards flow like a document, it hosts and shares what you make, and its plans run on AI credits.
vDesign is a free-form design canvas for any model. A slide deck is one of the things it makes, alongside posters, brochures, social posts, brand guidelines and video, and every element on every slide stays a layer you can move by hand.
Where each one wins
Choose Gamma for the fastest route from an outline to a shareable deck or document, with hosting, link sharing and viewer analytics built in.
Choose vDesign for designs laid out exactly, not only decks; for a deck you keep as a file that any model can revise; for your own choice of model; and for no credits.
