Text Generation: Prompt-to-Draft Workflow and Result Review

Run the text workflow with one concrete short-form task and inspect the generated draft inside the same widget.

This guide uses a fictional analytics feature and an illustrative recorded draft. It is not customer work or proof of factual accuracy. Verify every generated claim, number, name, and link before use.

What you’ll learn

  • What changes when the widget switches into Text mode
  • Which exact short-form request was used in this walkthrough
  • Which exact result actions appear after the draft is generated
  • Which kinds of short-form text requests fit this workflow best

Before you start

  • Open Generate. The public Playground is UI-only and does not submit text requests
  • Switch the widget to Text mode
  • Keep the first example narrow enough to judge in one quick read
01Switch to text

Open Text mode and point out what changes

Click Text in the mode selector. The most important thing to point out is what disappears: no aspect ratios, no image preview decisions, and no post-generation branding editor.

  • Use text mode for contained outputs like captions, short posts, announcements, and CTA drafts.
  • Note that the empty state now shows a Try a prompt row plus text-specific tabs like Product Description and LinkedIn Post.
  • Keep the first example practical and channel-specific.
  • Do not oversell it as a full long-form writing assistant if your customer only needs short copy.

Expected result

The user sees a compact copy-generation workflow instead of a visual composition workflow with preview and branding steps.

02Describe the copy task

Use one exact short-form request in General mode

Use one concrete request and keep this specific walkthrough on General. The other text tabs are useful later, but this first pass is easier to explain as one compact prompt.

Write a two-sentence fictional launch announcement under 180 characters about an analytics concept. Describe the campaign summary view without making speed or performance claims, and end with ‘See the concept.’
  • Keep General selected for this exact walkthrough.
  • Use the other text tabs later when you want a more structured content type.
  • Keep the first request narrow enough that the result can be judged in one quick read.
  • Click Generate.

Expected result

The request is specific enough to produce a usable first draft instead of broad brainstorming.

03Review the draft

Review the draft, then keep, retry, or refine it

When the result card appears, call out the exact UI labels. The title at the top is Generated Text, and the footer actions tell the user what they can do next.

  • Click Copy when the draft is ready to paste elsewhere.
  • Click Download if the customer wants a plain-text export.
  • Click Generate again if the framing is right but the wording is weak.
  • Click Edit prompt when the request itself was too vague.

Expected result

The operator can review, copy, retry, or refine the draft inside the same workspace.
