Napkin and Gamma
Napkin or Gamma?
Gamma turns a prompt into a polished deck, document or web page in minutes. Napkin builds your team's decks from the sketches, numbers and work already in your workspace, in your brand, and keeps them next to that work.

Where the two part ways.
- 1
Decks start from your team's work
Zero writes a deck from a Compass page, a Caliper eval's results or a Ledger metric's history, so the facts on the slides come from the source.
- 2
A sketch becomes the deck
Frames on a Napkin sketch are slides, so the whiteboard your team drew together turns into the deck without rebuilding it.
- 3
Your brand is checked as Zero writes
A brand kit holds your colors, fonts, logos and the words you use and avoid, and Zero checks each deck against it.
- 4
PowerPoint goes both ways
Export to PowerPoint, PDF, PDF with speaker notes or slide images, and bring an existing PowerPoint or PDF deck in to keep working on it.
- 5
Pages can do work
An interface can run a published Workbench flow, read and add records in a table, and start a Task, from a link people open with no account.
When Napkin is the right choice
- Your decks report on work your team tracks in ZeroWidth.
- Your team sketches first and presents second.
- Every deck needs to follow one brand kit.
- Your clients expect a PowerPoint file at the end.
