# Create With AI

The **Create with AI** feature uses AI-driven prompts to help you build structured learning materials quickly. By answering a series of targeted questions, you can generate a complete content draft that aligns with your specific goals and audience.

## Getting Started

1. In the Thrive menu, go to **Create**. ![User interface for creating content with options for various content types and tools.](https://cdn.document360.io/3a0609fb-d96c-4ce1-aabe-d9338fb1e858/Images/Documentation/image(794).png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-11-05T15%3A10%3A00Z&se=2026-11-05T16%3A10%3A00Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=iAsXp4X5%2FsEMqyzh2JQk6ULI7kXKsCBCErlsBWcYEqE%3D)
2. In the **Content Creator** area, click **Create with AI**.

## Create With AI Flow

The AI will guide you through a conversational workflow to understand your requirements. You can click **Start over** at any time to begin the process again, or **Back** to return to the previous step.

1. **Topic and materials:** Describe what you would like to teach, or paste any existing reference material into the text box.
2. **Learning goals:** Enter the key skills or knowledge learners should walk away with. Leave this blank to let the AI craft versatile goals.
3. **Audience:** Describe your learners – for example, whether they are beginners or already have experience in the area. Leave this blank to generate content suitable for a wide range of audiences.
4. **Content length:** Choose how much depth you need:
  - **Quick Overview:** Perfect for basic intros.
  - **Core Concepts:** Covers main principles.
  - **Comprehensive:** Deep dive with examples.
5. **Tone:** Select the delivery style that works best for your learners:
  - **Casual:** Friendly and relaxed, perfect for beginners.
  - **Balanced:** Professional yet warm, great for most audiences (selected by default).
  - **Formal:** Structured and academic, ideal for technical topics.

Once you click **Next**, the AI will generate a structured outline based on your inputs.

## Reviewing the Outline

Once your inputs are processed, the AI generates a structured outline for you to review and customise:

- **Edit:** Click the pencil icon to rename a section.
- **Delete:** Click the bin icon to remove a section.
- **Reorder:** Drag the six-dot icon to reorder sections.
- **Expand:** Click **+ Add section** to manually add more content areas.
- **Refine:** Click **Try again** to go back and adjust your inputs.
- **Generate:** Click **Create my content!** to build the full draft.

## Reviewing the Draft

After the content is generated, you will be taken to a preview of the draft. From here you can:

- Click **Accept and edit** to open the draft in the Content Creator for further editing.
- Click **Back to outline** to return to the outline and make changes before proceeding.

Once in the Content Creator, you can edit the draft directly.

## Publishing

When you are ready to publish, click **Publish…** in the top right corner of the Content Creator. You will be taken through the following configuration steps before your content goes live:

1. **Thumbnail:** Upload a custom image or click **Create with AI** to generate one. Required before publishing.
2. **Visibility & Share:** Set the content to **Public** or **Limited Access**, and configure sharing options.
3. **Skills & Topics:** Search for and apply **Skills** and **Topics** so your content appears in relevant sections across the platform.
4. **Endorsement & CPD:** Toggle **Endorse this content** to mark it as officially approved. When enabled, you can also select a **CPD Category**.
5. **Configuration:** Choose a completion criteria (**Complete on view** or **Confirm accept and understand**), set an estimated completion time, and optionally toggle **Enable comments**.
6. Click **Publish** to make the content available on your Thrive platform.

Your content is now active and accessible to learners based on the visibility settings you configured.
