✓ What carries over
- Deck outlines/text export cleanly (PPTX/PDF)
- Brand kits re-create in Canva
- Sharing/link workflows similar
Migration guide · Updated 2026-09-11
Switching from Gamma to Canva AI.
Gamma generates decks fast from prompts; Canva AI wraps generation inside a full design suite your team may already use. Switch when design assets beyond slides matter more than deck-generation speed.
✗ What doesn't transfer
- Gamma's card-based deck structure converts imperfectly to Canva layouts
- Auto-generated layouts need manual touch-up
- Analytics on deck views stay behind
Do the math before cancelling anything
Canva Pro often already exists in your stack (check!) — adding Gamma on top duplicates spend. Verify whether Canva Magic Design covers your needs before paying for both.
Migrate one task, not your whole workflow
- Regenerate one recent Gamma deck with Canva Magic Design.
- Time the cleanup edits honestly — this is where Gamma usually wins.
- Cancel only the one that loses the two-week trial.
