How it works
Newer AI features include Designer, which suggests layouts as you add content, and Copilot, which can draft a deck from a document or prompt. Real-time co-authoring, Presenter Coach, and cloud storage through OneDrive make it a complete tool for teams.
PowerPoint comes with Microsoft 365 Personal at $6.99 a month, or as a one-time purchase from $159.99. It is the safe, universal choice for presentations, though the subscription adds up and the app can feel heavy for simple decks.
