Google Rolls Out Gemini Canvas Presentations That Build Slides From Prompts

Paid accounts are getting the feature first as Google expands access in batches.

Overview

  • Gemini’s Canvas workspace can now turn a text prompt or uploaded files into a complete, themed slide deck with images.
  • Users generate drafts in a side-by-side Canvas view and export to Google Slides for editing and collaboration.
  • The rollout has begun for Gemini Advanced/Pro and Workspace users, with broader access for free accounts expected soon.
  • Presentations can be exported to Slides, downloaded as PDFs, shared via a public Canvas link, and converted to PowerPoint through Slides.
  • Early hands-on tests report quick results but inconsistent adherence to formatting or style requests, often requiring manual fixes.
