Free trial: 2 AI generations every week

A Canva alternative for AI presentations from your document to an editable PowerPoint

Short answer: Slidy is only an AI presentation generator: drop a PDF, Word, Excel or PowerPoint file (or type a topic), get 5 to 35 slides in about 15 to 25 seconds, and pay €2.99 for the editable .pptx only when you need it, with no subscription. If you need team features, Slidy is not the right tool; check Canva's own pricing page for its current plans.

Pay per export instead of a plan

Slidy does one job: it turns a topic, your notes or a file into a finished slide deck, then sells the editable PowerPoint file per deck. Nothing renews.

If you make decks every week, a subscription tool can spread its cost over many projects. If you need a proper .pptx a few times a year (a client proposal, a course, a pitch deck, a thesis defense), paying per export is often simpler. We could not read Canva's pricing page on 28 October 2026, so we do not quote its prices here: check canva.com/pricing directly before comparing.

From a document to slides in four steps

  1. Drop your file or type a topic in the single box: PDF, Word, Excel, PowerPoint or pasted notes.
  2. Pick a length between 5 and 35 slides. Generation takes about 15 to 25 seconds.
  3. Review and edit in the browser: change any text or figure, switch among 12 themes in one click.
  4. Export the editable .pptx for €2.99 and finish it in PowerPoint, Google Slides or Keynote.

Slides built for content, not decoration

Slidy chooses a layout for each slide from your content: key figures, step-by-step process, timeline, comparison table, 2x2 matrix, quote, statement or photo slide. Photos come from free photo libraries and are credited. Slides are written in the language of your topic or document.

Slidy never invents numbers. Figures come from your text; when a figure is needed but missing, the slide shows "XX" so you can fill it in rather than present a made-up statistic.

When Slidy is not the right choice

  • You need real-time co-editing, comments or a shared team workspace: Slidy has none.
  • You need a brand kit applied to every deck: Slidy has no brand kit.
  • You want a free PowerPoint download: Slidy charges for every .pptx export.
  • In those cases, check what Canva's current plans include on canva.com/pricing.

Stop staring at a blank slide.
