A Pitch alternative for decks that end up in PowerPoint
Pitch is a browser-based presentation editor with a Free plan and PowerPoint import, and it states that it is hosted in Ireland. If PowerPoint export has to work on your plan, the brand should guide the AI and you also need Word and Excel files, Slaide is worth testing next to it. This page sets the two side by side from vendor pages, with dated sources.

Why people look elsewhere
Three reasons to look beyond Pitch
Each point restates a line of the table below. The numbers link to the vendor pages behind it.
PowerPoint export on the plan you use
Pitch lists PowerPoint export as a premium feature, and its pricing page lists it inconsistently for Plus. Slaide's Free plan exports .pptx too, with a Slaide mark.
Word and Excel from the same brief
The Pitch pages do not state Word or Excel output. Slaide builds Word files for A4 pages and Excel workbooks from the same brief as the deck.
A brand that guides the AI
Pitch offers a slide style and uploaded custom fonts, and its pages do not state a brand kit. Slaide's brand holds colors, fonts, logo and tone, or is read from a website, for up to 5 brands.
