Feature comparison matrix

| Visual system | Two visual systems: Style A editorial magazine and Style B Swiss grid | Centered on Google Slides templates and theme styles |
| Sharing | Saved decks get a /show share link, open fast on mobile, and keep a small native brand mark | Google Slides links, permissions, and exported files |

FAQ
SlidesAI is a Google Slides tool — is AiCanvasly one too?
No. SlidesAI is closer to a Google Slides add-in and Workspace collaboration; AiCanvasly is a standalone web tool that generates HTML Decks by default.
Can both SlidesAI and AiCanvasly generate a presentation from text?
Both address text-to-presentation needs, but the deliverable differs: SlidesAI lands in Google Slides, AiCanvasly lands in a web-presentation link.
What if I must hand the result off to Google Slides?
Prefer SlidesAI or the native Google Slides workflow. AiCanvasly is better for first making a web-presentation version, then running an HTML-to-PPT conversion path as needed.
Which is better for quickly previewing to a client?
When you would rather not deal with Google permissions and file access, the AiCanvasly web link is lighter; when the client also collaborates inside Google Workspace, SlidesAI is smoother.
