Step 1: Create an Account on Gamma AI

First, let’s click the link in the description… just kidding! Since you’re reading this blog post, just head over to Gamma AI’s website. This is the tool we’re going to use to create our AI presentations.

Once you’re on the page, we need to create an account on Gamma AI. Look for the “Sign up for free” button and click it. Then sign up with your Google account (it’s the easiest way), click “Create workspace,” and you’ll be all set up!

Step 2: Choose Your Method for Creating the Presentation

Now you’ll see that we have three different methods to create the presentation:

When it comes to making a professional, engaging presentation with AI, the good news is—you’ve got options. Whether you’re a student working on a class project, a marketer pitching a campaign, or a business owner creating a deck for clients, there are several ways to kickstart your presentation. Let’s walk through the three main methods you can choose from when using AI-powered tools, based on my own experience as a digital content creator and blogger who uses AI daily for blogging, marketing, and designing impactful content.

1. Paste in Text (Outline to Slides)

This method is ideal if you already have some form of content ready. Maybe you’ve jotted down talking points, a structured outline, or even detailed notes in a document. By pasting that text into an AI presentation tool, you can quickly turn those raw ideas into a clean, professional-looking slide deck.

In my experience, this is a great time-saver when repurposing blog posts or webinar notes into visual content. Many tools intelligently break your text into separate slides and even add relevant icons, images, or layout suggestions. If you’re someone who prefers planning everything before visualizing it, this method will feel natural and gives you more control over the final output.

✅ Perfect for: Thought leaders, bloggers, educators, or anyone who has a script or outline ready.

2. Generate with AI (One-Line Magic)

This is the most exciting and futuristic option—and probably my favorite! With just a single sentence like “Create a pitch deck for an AI pet health app”, the AI can generate the entire presentation for you, including headlines, bullet points, images, and sometimes even graphs.

I often use this feature when I’m short on time or looking for a creative boost. The AI doesn’t just save time—it gives you fresh angles and ideas you might not have thought of. Of course, I always recommend reviewing and customizing the output to match your tone, branding, or target audience. But the creative head-start is huge.

✅ Perfect for: Busy professionals, startup founders, content creators, or anyone starting from scratch.

3. Import a File (Enhance Existing Slides)

Already have a PowerPoint, PDF, or Google Slides file? Don’t start over. You can import your existing file into AI tools that analyze and upgrade your presentation. They might suggest slide redesigns, improve your wording, or even rewrite entire sections with more persuasive language.

Personally, I’ve used this method while updating old webinar decks and investor presentations. AI helps bring a fresh perspective—plus modern visuals and better formatting—without redoing everything manually.

✅ Perfect for: Teams with legacy content, anyone refreshing a pitch, or updating slide decks with new data.

My Takeaway

Choosing the right method depends on where you are in the content creation process. I’ve tested all three methods across different tools like Beautiful.ai, Gamma, and Tome, and I’ve found that mixing them often works best. Start with an outline, let AI generate a first draft, and then import and polish in your favorite editor.

As someone who blogs daily about AI tools and productivity, I’ve seen firsthand how these features can 10x your speed and creativity. Whether you’re presenting to one person or a hundred, AI can help you create something that connects, informs, and inspires—without the overwhelm.

OK so these are the three methods which you can use to create the presentation. Just choose the method that best suits your needs! I’ve already prepared some notes for my presentation, and I want AI to generate the content and create the presentation, so I’m going to use the “paste in text” method. Let’s click “Continue.”

Step 3: Create Your Presentation with AI

To create the presentation, we need to paste the notes or outline that we prepared. I’ve got my notes ready, so I’ll just copy them and paste them into the text field.

Once you’ve pasted your content, scroll down and make sure “Presentation” is selected, and click “Continue.”

Now, before we ask Gamma AI to start creating the presentation, we need to change a few settings:

• Content Generation: Choose “Generate” if you want AI to create content based on your notes, “Condense” if you want AI to shorten your content, or “Preserve” if you want AI to reformat without changing the original information. I’m selecting “Generate” since I want AI to flesh out my notes.
• Content Amount: Select how much content you want on each slide – “Brief” (bullet points), “Medium” (concise content), or “Detail” (in-depth content). I’ll go with “Medium” for my presentation.
• Target Audience: Specify your audience (students, professionals, etc.). I’ll leave this as default.
• Tone: Choose the tone of your presentation. I’ll stick with the default tone.
• Language: Select from over 20 languages. I’ll choose English.

You also need to choose how you want Gamma AI to get images for your presentation. You can either collect images from the internet or generate unique images using AI. I find the web image search works great most of the time, so I’ll go with that option.

Next, select the size of the slide (I usually leave this default), and then select the number of slides you want. With Gamma AI, you can create presentations with up to 9 slides for free. If you need more slides, you’d need to upgrade to the pro version. For my presentation, I’m setting it to 8 slides.

Pro tip: You get 400 credits for free, and creating an 8-slide presentation only costs 40 credits, so you can make quite a few presentations before needing to upgrade!

Once everything is set, click “Continue.” On the next page, select a design for your presentation (I’m picking one that matches my brand colors), and click “Generate.”

What’s really cool is that using the notes we gave, Gamma AI has generated the complete content for my presentation! It included a brief introduction, broke down all the content and explained it in points, and even added relevant images to enhance each slide. Amazing, right?

Step 4: Edit Your Presentation

Once you’ve created your presentation, you might want to make some changes to it. That’s super easy with Gamma AI.

To change text on a slide, just select the text, enter the text you want, and it will be changed. Simple as that!

Changing images is just as easy. Let’s say you want to change an image on a slide. Just click on it, then click the remove button, and it will be removed. Once you’ve removed the image, you can replace it with a new one either from your computer or by searching online.

To create an image using GravityWrite:

1. Visit GravityWrite’s website
2. Look for their image generation tool
3. Enter a description of the image you want (be specific!)
4. Set the quality to HD
5. Choose the style (Vivid or Natural – I usually go with Natural for professional presentations)
6. Click “Generate Image”
7. Download the image to your computer

If you’re still not happy with the revised content, you can easily regenerate it by clicking the refresh button. Once you’re satisfied, just click to apply the changes.
