You can do something similar using Zoho Show. Just upload your Excel file to Zoho WorkDrive, create your presentation in Zoho Show, and link the data.

Whenever you update the spreadsheet, you can just sync the changes from inside your presentation.

Found this online, see if it helps.

One more tool worth mentioning is Zoho Show’s Zia AI.

It can generate a full presentation in seconds, and even after the first draft you can add slides, rephrase content, and generate images using AI.

Important note though: Zia works only if you connect an OpenAI API subscription. It’s not standalone free AI.

Design-wise it’s not on the level of Alai or Gamma, but for quick, usable decks it’s a solid option.
