Is the AI slide generator market growing or shrinking?

The answer▼ Shrinking
- Visits, year on year, without Canva
- -3.6%
- Visits, last six months
- -13%
- Name searches vs October 2025
- -1.3%
Every month I add up the Google visits to the 19 AI slide generator sites I track (DataForSEO estimates) and how often people in the US search for them by name (Google Ads). In October 2026 they got about 238 million visits. Much of the year’s change is one site, Canva; without it, visits are down 4% on a year ago.
The total hides very different stories: one site grew 949% in a year while another lost 89% of its visits. See who grew and who shrank, the visits month by month and the name searches, plus what I expect for November 2026.

Miles explains
Visits are lower than a year ago, but the fall looks like it has stopped: October 2026 was up on September 2026. Google Trends interest in the term fell (-60%), but name searches did not, so some interest has cooled.
2.Are people searching for AI slide generator sites by name?
About level with October 2025 (-1%); 31M name searches a month in the US
About as many as before. People in the US searched Google for the names of the counted AI slide generator sites 31,250,400 times in September 2026, about the same as in October 2025. Someone who searches a site’s name already knows it, so this is the clearest sign of people coming back on purpose. The term “ai slide generator” itself gets about 4,400 US searches a month (Google Ads, 12-month average).

Name searches are level, so the regular users are still there.
3.Which AI slide generator sites grew, and which shrank?
The five most-visited sites hold 98.6% of all visits; the ten most-visited hold 99.8%
The five most-visited AI slide generator sites get 98.6% of all visits, so one of them winning or losing a big Google ranking moves the whole total. Fastest grower over the year: Presenti, from 9,492 to 99,521 visits (+949%). Steepest fall: SlidesGPT, from 249,681 to 26,706 visits (-89%).
