I’ve been on the Pitch beta for the last couple weeks. Previously I spent a couple years making presentations using Keynote, and then recently dabbled in Google Slides. In my experience the #1 advantage Pitch has over Slides is that it is easy to make beautiful decks, and easy to work with non-designers collaboratively because I can pre-define all the document styles and just tell them not to customise any font or colour settings. The ability to upload custom fonts is also super useful.

There are a couple of things I wish Pitch supported, like vector image uploads and better looking diagrams and charts.

Overall I’m a big fan, and can’t see myself ever opening Google Slides again.

If you’d like to see an example of a presentation created in Pitch, check out these two. The first is the Supercast deck, and the second one of many delightful “What’s new“ presentations from Pitch themselves:
