Reviewer scorecard
“Limited customization and no real API. For dev team presentations, Markdown-to-slides tools are more flexible.”
“The smart layout engine is genuinely impressive. Produces better slides than 90% of manual PowerPoint work.”
“The 3D capture from phone video is magic. Walk around an object, get a photorealistic 3D model. For product photography and real estate, this is transformative.”
“Locked into their template system. When you need a custom layout, you're fighting the tool instead of using it.”
“Dream Machine video quality has improved significantly. Not Runway level yet for cinematic work but the 3D capabilities are genuinely unique.”
“3D generation is the next frontier after image and video. Luma is ahead of everyone in making 3D accessible. Spatial computing needs this.”
