Tools/Gamma
Outline the deck. The agent drafts in Gamma. You share or export.
Agent: GET /api/catalog/tools/gamma
You need one deck this week — pitch, update, or workshop. Park the outline. The agent drafts cards in Gamma. You decide when the public link or export leaves the draft seat.
Canva stays the canvas. Notion stays the outline desk. Gamma is the AI deck builder. Do not blur them. Free is **400 one-time credits** that **do not refresh**. Pricing page: **no credit card required**. Plus starts around **$12/mo** (about **$9/mo** billed annually) with **1,000 monthly credits** and badge removal. Pro adds API and ~**4,000**/mo. Verify the live pricing toggle before quoting checkout dollars. Hosted MCP and Claude/ChatGPT connectors work on all plans — generations still spend credits. API keys are Pro+. Nothing shares or publishes without your yes.
- Free: 400 one-time credits — do not refresh; no card required (gamma.app/pricing)
- Plus ~$12/mo ($9/mo annual) · Pro ~$25/mo ($18/mo annual) · Ultra higher — verify toggle on pricing
- Hosted MCP on all plans (OAuth); API keys Pro+ only (developers.gamma.app)
- Agent drafts Gamma; you gate public share, export-to-client, and custom-domain publish
- Sibling blur: Canva = canvas; Notion = outline desk — not the deck builder
Use cases
You need one AI deck this week — not a Canva design empire
One pitch, update, or workshop deck. Canva owns canvas/templates. Gamma owns AI-generated cards from a prompt. Loud sibling blur.
The agent drafts the deck. Share and export stay gated
Outline → generate → leave draft. Soft slots: {{deck_job}} {{audience}} {{slide_count}} {{tone}} {{do_not_publish}}. Public link, client export, and site publish wait for yes.
Free credits are real — and they do not refresh
Free starts with 400 one-time credits (help.gamma.app credits article). Plus refreshes 1,000/mo and removes Made-with-Gamma branding. Never call Free Forever.
MCP on Free. API keys need Pro+
Hosted Gamma MCP + Claude/ChatGPT connectors work on all plans (credits still apply). REST API keys are Pro, Ultra, Teams, Business only — do not blur.
Draft one deck. Gate the share.
Free credits are real. MCP is real. Nothing goes public without your yes.
- Agent never silent-publishes the public link
- Free = 400 one-time credits (not Free Forever)
- Pay Plus+ when monthly credits / no-badge / API matter
