The short version
- Each has a real cost: Gamma free plan limited to 400 non-renewable credits, requiring paid plan quickly; Supernormal credit consumption varies by task complexity and no rate card is published, so a team cannot forecast whether fifty credits covers a month of work until it has spent one, which makes the paid tiers hard to size.
- They diverge on capability: Gamma covers AI Slide Generation, Supernormal covers Bot-free desktop capture.

Where each one falls short
Documented limitations, not opinions. Every one is a constraint you would hit in normal use.
Gamma
- Free plan limited to 400 non-renewable credits, requiring paid plan quickly
- Credit rollover capped at 2x monthly allocation, forcing month-to-month spending
- Refund window limited to 3 days with usage thresholds restricting claims
- Per-seat pricing on team plans increases costs for large organizations
- Studio Mode limited to Ultra plan, restricting advanced editing to highest tier
Supernormal
- Credit consumption varies by task complexity and no rate card is published, so a team cannot forecast whether fifty credits covers a month of work until it has spent one, which makes the paid tiers hard to size.
- Team and Business include the same fifty credits, so the higher tier buys governance rather than capacity, and a heavy user hitting the ceiling gains nothing by upgrading.
- Capturing without a visible bot removes the prompt that reminds participants they are being recorded, but not the legal consent obligation in two-party consent jurisdictions, and the product makes that omission easy.
- Desktop capture depends on the application running on the meeting host's machine, so a participant joining from a phone, a locked-down corporate laptop or a browser without the extension gets nothing.
- The category is crowded with better-funded competitors bundled into Zoom, Microsoft and Google subscriptions customers already pay for, which puts sustained pressure on a small independent vendor and on the value of standardising a team on it.

Answered from the vendors’ own pages
Gamma: How do Gamma AI credits work?
Each plan includes a monthly AI credit allowance. Free users receive 400 one-time credits. Plus plan includes 1,000 monthly credits, Pro includes 4,000 monthly credits, and Ultra includes 20,000 monthly credits. Unused credits roll over up to 2x the monthly allowance.
SourceSupernormal: Does Supernormal join my meeting as a bot?
No. It captures from the desktop application, so no additional participant appears in the call. That is its main differentiator.
Gamma: What is included in the Free plan?
The Free plan includes 400 AI credits (one-time), up to 10 cards per prompt, basic AI, Gamma branding on output, and 7-day change history.
SourceSupernormal: How much does it cost?
Free gives 15 credits a month capped at 5 a day. Team is $20 a month and Business is $40 a month, both with 50 credits.
Gamma: What payment and refund options does Gamma offer?
Gamma offers a 3-day refund window for monthly plans if you have used less than 10-20 percent of your monthly credits depending on the plan.
SourceSupernormal: What does a credit buy?
Credits are consumed by tasks and usage varies with complexity. The vendor does not publish per-task rates, which is the weak point of the pricing model.
Gamma: How much do Team and Business plans cost?
Team plans cost $20 per seat per month with a minimum of 2 seats, including 6,000 AI credits per seat. Business plans cost $40 per seat per month with a minimum of 10 seats, including 10,000 AI credits per seat.
SourceSupernormal: Do I still need consent to record?
Yes. Removing the visible bot does not remove the legal requirement in jurisdictions that require all parties to consent. Treat the absence of a prompt as a compliance risk, not a feature.
