## Create Templates by Describing Them

No more dragging and dropping. Just tell your AI assistant what you want:

\> *“Create a template for Instagram posts with a background image, a bold title at the top, and a subtitle at the bottom”*

The AI will create the template with all the layers, positioning, and styling - ready to use.

## Edit Templates Through Conversation

Need to make changes? Just ask:

\> *“Make the title bigger and move it to the center”*

\> *“Add a logo layer in the top-right corner”*

\> *“Change the background color to dark blue”*

The AI understands your template structure and makes the changes for you.

## Full Templated Control

Beyond template creation, you get access to all Templated features:

- **Generate renders** - Create images, videos, and PDFs from your templates
- **Clone & organize** - Duplicate templates, create folders, manage your library
- **Upload assets** - Add images and custom fonts through conversation
- **Inspect & debug** - Ask “What layers does this template have?” to understand any template

### Example Prompts

| What You Say | What Happens |
| - | - |
| *”Create a certificate template with a name, date, and decorative border”* | Creates a new template with text layers and styling |
| *”Update my Instagram template - make the title font larger”* | Modifies the existing template |
| *”Generate a PNG from my pricing template with the price set to $99”* | Creates a render with custom values |
| *”Clone my business card template and rename it to ‘Premium Card‘“* | Duplicates the template |
| *”Show me all my templates that have ‘social’ in the name”* | Searches your template library |
