Gamma Expands Into AI Image Generation With New “Gamma Imagine” Tool

Gamma is expanding its platform beyond presentations with the launch of Gamma Imagine, a new AI-powered image generation tool designed to create marketing and visual assets, as the company looks to compete more directly with Canva and Adobe.

The product allows users to generate visuals from text prompts, including charts, infographics, social media graphics and other branded materials. Gamma is positioning the feature as an extension of its existing presentation and website creation tools, giving users a way to produce a wider range of content within the same platform.

The company said the new tool is built to support data-driven visuals by integrating with services such as ChatGPT, Claude, Make, Zapier, Atlassian, n8n and Superhuman Go. These connections are intended to help users pull in information and turn it into visual outputs without switching between multiple apps.

Gamma developed the feature based on how its users were already working across different formats. “As we started working with a lot of our early users, we realized that in the presentations they want to create, there was a variety of graphical design use cases that they all also had,” CEO and co-founder Grant Lee told TechCrunch. “So we worked alongside them to develop basically a new set of tools that allows them to go far beyond just the traditional presentation format.”

The company is targeting a segment of users that sits between advanced design software and basic productivity tools. Lee said Gamma aims to serve professionals who need to communicate visually but lack access to dedicated design resources. “We think we can serve the very long tail of knowledge workers and business professionals whose demand for their job is to communicate visually, but they just don’t have the tools,” he said.

Gamma currently offers more than 100 templates that can be combined with its AI features to create presentations and other materials. With the addition of Gamma Imagine, the company is broadening its product to include standalone visual assets, not just presentation-based outputs.

The launch comes as Gamma continues to scale its business. The company raised $68 million in a Series B round led by a16z last November at a $2.1 billion valuation. At the time, it reported $100 million in annual recurring revenue and 70 million users, and it now says it is nearing 100 million users.

By adding image generation and expanding its integrations, Gamma is moving toward a more comprehensive creative toolset aimed at users who want to produce visual content without relying on traditional design software.
