Motion Animations
Every object on the canvas can be animated. Text, images, shapes, charts, diagrams. Select an element, open the motion panel, and choose an animation.
Animations are organized in beats. Logical groups that play together. Each presentation supports up to 20 beats, reorderable by dragging in the sidebar.
What makes this powerful:
- Stagger animations: group objects and have them animate one by one with a delay
- Drag-and-drop ordering: rearrange animation sequences visually
- In-editor preview: see animations without entering presentation mode
- Auto-play after generation: AI picks sensible animations and plays them automatically
- Keyboard navigation: arrow keys to advance, spacebar to play, escape to exit
Use cases:
- Pitch decks: reveal key numbers one at a time for dramatic effect
- Lecture slides: step through formulas and diagrams progressively
- Sales presentations: build visual stories that guide attention
- Conference talks: control pacing so the audience focuses on what you are saying
- --
Video Export
Create animated content and export the full sequence as an MP4 file. No external video editing software needed.
What you can create:
- Short explainer videos for social media
- Animated infographics for reports
- Product walkthroughs and demos
- Educational video content for courses
The AI generates motion-ready slides designed for video output. The export pipeline handles concurrent frame capture and produces a clean MP4 you can share directly.

Page Transitions
Presentations now support smooth fade and slide transitions between pages. Combined with motion animations, your slides flow naturally from one to the next.

AI-powered content creation, minus the hassle.Dan Dascalescu🙏 75 karmaNov 11, 2024@GammaMakes it easy to get started with a presentation if you have an outline, but as soon as you want more control, you're better off using Google Slides. Gamma's feature that I used the most was image generation - you can select among a variety of models (Ideogram, Flux, DALL-E, but not Midjourney), and it shows 3 variations to choose from. Performance is slow and a little janky, even in Chrome. Prompts and settings are often not respected - e.g. you set it to "preserve text" and just generate slides, and it goes onto dumping an entire 3 paragraphs of text in one slide. You can't overlay text over images (e.g. for image attribution), and there's no precise positioning control, or grouping elements. No way to control table layout, e.g. to have two images slide-by-side in full bleed mode. I tried Gamma for a new presentation, but next time I need to make a presentation, I'll go back to Google Slides and generate images independently.
