Why Teams Are Switching from PowerPoint

PowerPoint is powerful, but the manual workflow costs teams hours every week. AI presentation software eliminates the bottleneck.

Hours to Minutes

Stop spending half a day on slides. Enter your topic and get a complete, themed presentation generated in under five minutes.

No Design Expertise

PowerPoint requires layout, typography, and color knowledge. Gixo handles all design decisions automatically with professional themes.

AI Content Structuring

Gixo structures your topic into logical sections with title slides, content slides, data layouts, and conclusions. No blank-slide anxiety.

Built-in AI Images

Generate custom visuals for any slide without leaving the app. No more searching stock photo sites or paying for image licenses.

Consistent Branding

Every slide in your deck follows the same theme. No mismatched fonts, inconsistent spacing, or off-brand color choices.

Full Edit Control

AI generates the first draft, then you refine. Edit text, swap layouts, regenerate slides, or add new ones. You stay in control.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I import my existing PowerPoint files into Gixo?
Gixo generates presentations from topics and content rather than importing PPTX files. You can paste your existing text content and Gixo will restructure it into a new, professionally themed deck. This often produces better results than converting old slides.
Can I export Gixo presentations to PowerPoint format?
Gixo exports to PDF format, which is universally viewable and preserves all design elements perfectly. PDF is the standard for sharing finalized presentations in business contexts.
When is PowerPoint still the better choice?
PowerPoint is better when you need complex animations, embedded macros, or offline editing on a desktop app. It is also preferred in organizations that require PPTX as a deliverable format for internal template systems.
How hard is it to switch from PowerPoint to AI presentations?
There is almost no learning curve. You type a topic, choose a theme, and Gixo generates the deck. The editing interface is intuitive. Most users create their first complete presentation within five minutes of signing up.
Does Gixo work for the same use cases as PowerPoint?
Yes. Gixo handles business presentations, pitch decks, sales decks, training materials, educational lectures, and conference talks. With 20+ professional themes covering corporate, startup, creative, and academic styles, it covers the same use cases as PowerPoint.
