Tome Alternatives: AI Presentation Tools That Still Work

Short answer

Tome's AI slides product was reported shut down on 30 April 2025, when the team moved to an AI CRM called Lightfield. The closest replacements are Gamma, which builds a deck from a prompt, and Canva's AI tools, which give more design control. Pick Gamma for speed and Canva for brand control.

What happened to Tome

Evidence: Reported

Tome's founders concluded that a general consumer slide tool could not become a sustainable business and redirected the team to Lightfield, an AI-native CRM for sales teams. This is reported by a third party; we could not confirm it on tome.app. aixjo previously listed Tome as active and featured it on the home page; that has been corrected.

How to choose

  • Do you need a full deck from one prompt (Gamma), or help polishing slides you write yourself (PowerPoint, Slides, Canva)?
  • Do you need PowerPoint export? Check the export options on the plan you would buy.
  • Who owns your content if the company shuts down? Prefer tools that export to open formats. Tome's closure is the reason this check is here.
