MagicSlides alternative
The free MagicSlides alternative
MagicSlides runs as a Google Slides / browser add-on — handy, but tied to that host and its limits. EXdeck is a standalone AI presentation maker that writes and designs the whole deck and exports a genuine PowerPoint, free to start.
Where EXdeck differs from MagicSlides
MagicSlides plugs into Google Slides to generate slides from text. EXdeck is its own full editor — so you get per-element control, data charts, 45 themes, and per-slide AI regenerate — and it exports a real .pptx and PDF you can open in PowerPoint, Keynote, or Slides.
What you get instead
- Standalone app — no add-on or host account required
- A full slide editor with per-element control
- Real data charts and 200,000+ icons
- Real editable .pptx and PDF export
- Free plan; Pro from $1.99/mo
When MagicSlides is the better pick
If your whole workflow lives inside Google Slides and you just want a quick in-app generator, the add-on is convenient. EXdeck is for a fuller editor and real PowerPoint output outside any single host.
