Most AI presentation makers can make slides. Fewer understand an investor pitch.

A pitch deck has to answer harder questions: who pays, why now, what changed, how big this gets, why this team wins, and what the money buys. That is why Pitches.ai ranks first here. GenPPT ranks second because it is the stronger general presentation generator from the same product family.

1. Pitches.ai

Best for: seed and pre-seed pitch decks from a company URL, memo, PDF, spreadsheet, or famous deck structure.

Pitches.ai reads the source, drafts the 12-slide story, and lets you remix slides in the studio. It is built around the questions investors ask, not around generic template filling.

How you actually use it

• Input: Company URL, memo, PDF, spreadsheet, or famous startup pitch-deck structure.
• What you get: A focused investor deck covering problem, why now, product, market, traction, business model, team, and ask.
• Edit/export: Remix the slides in the studio, tighten the story, then export PowerPoint or PDF after subscription.

The default story is practical: cover, problem, why now, product, market, traction, business model, team, and ask. If a metric is in the source, put it on the slide. If it is not there, do not pretend.

Pricing: $29/month or $249/year. No free generated deck and no $1 trial.

Use it when: the deck is going to a partner, accelerator, demo day, or data room.
