Editing AI-generated content

Last updated: April 26, 2026

Every Product Pages optimization is editable. The AI gives you a draft; you decide what ships. This page covers the editor workflow — what’s editable, what isn’t, and when to regenerate vs. tweak by hand.

Open the editor

From the products table, click any product → click Edit in the preview. The editor shows four sections:

  1. AI summary — short paragraph
  2. FAQs — Q&A pairs
  3. “Best for” labels — use-case tags
  4. SEO description — long-form product description rewritten in customer language

Each section has its own edit, regenerate, and discard controls.

Edit by hand

Click Edit on any section to switch into an inline text editor. Save your changes locally, then Publish when you’re ready. Edits don’t trigger another AI call — what you see is what gets written to your Shopify metafield.

Regenerate a single block

If a particular block isn’t right (e.g., the FAQs are too generic but the summary is fine), click Regenerate on just that block. The AI takes a fresh pass with the same review input. The other blocks stay untouched.

Regenerate the whole product

Open the Regenerate menu at the top of the editor and pick Regenerate all to redo every block at once. Useful when:

  • You’ve imported a large batch of new reviews and want the content refreshed
  • The original generation happened with too few reviews
  • You want a different tone or angle (the same menu has a feedback field — add notes for the AI before running the regeneration)

Discard a draft

If a draft is unrecoverable, click Discard. The product returns to “not started” — no metafield writes happen. You can generate again from scratch when ready.

Publish vs. unpublish

Publish writes the current content to your Shopify product metafields. Your storefront blocks pick it up immediately (or within ~30s if your theme caches).

Unpublish clears the metafields but keeps the draft in BetterReviews. Useful for pulling content while you fix something. Shopper-facing storefront blocks fall back to no content until you republish.

Tips

  • Edit one section at a time. AI drafts are usually 80% right; bulk regeneration overwrites your edits.
  • Use feedback for tone shifts. If the summary reads too marketing-speak, open the Regenerate menu, type “use plainer language” or “lead with the most-mentioned use case” into the feedback field, and run regeneration. The AI uses your feedback as a system prompt for the next run.
  • Watch your weekly digest. Each Sunday the digest shows products with new reviews since their last optimization. Those are your regeneration candidates.
