Availability: all customers

Cover Page

Choose either a vertical image in 4:5 or 2:3, or a horizontal image with its most important content in the centre. On larger devices, the cover is cropped to fit the screen and always stays centred, so the left and right edges of a horizontal image may be cut off.

Generate an AI image

  1. Select any area where you can add an image (such as a card, lesson, content block, or existing image) and select Add image or Replace image.

  2. In the image picker modal that opens, Generate with AI is selected by default.

  3. In the text area, describe the image you want to generate.

  4. Select Portrait (2:3 ratio) or Landscape (3:2 ratio).

  5. Select Generate Image.

  6. Once generated, select Insert image to add it to your content, or select Regenerate if you want to try again with the same or different prompt.

Edit an image with AI

If a card or block already has an image, you can describe a change and have AI generate an edited version.

  1. Select the image, then select Add image or Replace image to open the image picker.

  2. Select the Edit with AI tab.

  3. Describe the change you want. The edited image appears in the picker.

  4. Select Portrait (2:3 ratio) or Landscape (3:2 ratio) if you want to change the shape.

  5. Select Insert image to use the edited image, or refine your description and generate again.

Note: Edit with AI appears only when an image is already in place.

Set the focal point

You can set the focal point for any generated image that is set to fill.

  1. Select Focal Point.

  2. Click and drag the marker that appears in the middle of the image to your preferred spot.

  3. Select Focal Point again to set it.

Tips for great AI image prompts

To get the best results from the AI image generator:

  • be precise, detailed, and direct in your descriptions

  • include specific details about style, lighting, and composition

  • for photorealistic images, mention camera details, such as "shot on iPhone 16"

Example: "A dancer in motion captured with an iPhone 16. The background is a dimly lit studio with a spotlight on the dancer. The motion blur conveys energy and fluidity."

Your AI-generated images are saved automatically and can be reused. Generated images are not yet available across other courses.

Other image options

If you prefer not to use AI, you can select one of the following options:

  • Upload image: upload your own images from your device

  • Free stock image: browse and use free stock images

  • From sources: reuse images from your project sources and uploads, if any

Usage limits: you can generate up to 30 images per hour. If you exceed this limit, wait before generating more images.
