# How to Edit Your Presentation with AI

The Edit with AI option lets you make changes to your slides using simple text instructions.

-   Click **Edit with AI** at the bottom of the screen
    
-   The AI Assistant panel opens on the right

-   Type your instruction in the prompt bar
    
-   AI optimizes your prompt and shows you what it plans to do — confirm to proceed
    
-   Click **Apply** to accept the change, or **Undo** to revert it

-   You can also use the quick-action buttons like **Make it concise**, **Simplify**, **Add more details**, or **Make it more minimal** for faster edits.
    
    **Cost:** Each AI edit costs 5 credits. The cost is always shown before you apply the change.
    
    **Example prompts**
    
    -   "Make the headline shorter"
        
    -   "Replace the background image"
        
    -   "Add a stat box"
        
    -   "Remove the timeline icons"
        
    -   "Rewrite this in a more formal tone"
        
    
    **Changing images with AI**
    
    There are three ways to work with images through Edit with AI:
    
    -   **Describe it:** Type what you want the image to look like, and AI generates or finds it
        
    -   **Upload from device:** Click the paperclip icon to attach a photo from your device, then tell AI where to place it or what to replace
        
    -   **Stock image search:** Search Unsplash or Freepik directly from the AI panel, select an image, and send it with an instruction
        
    
    **Tips**
    
    -   You can make multiple edits to the same slide, one at a time
        
    -   Every change is previewed before being applied
        
    -   Undo is available after each edit
        
    
    That's all!
