AI Image Generation

AI Image Generation creates custom visuals for your courses directly within the Slate editor. Describe what you need, and Slate generates an image you can use in any Image block.

  1. Add or select an Image block in your lesson
  2. Choose Generate with AI from the image source options
  3. Enter a text description of the image you want
  4. Select an aspect ratio
  5. Generate the image

The generated image is added to the block and saved to your media library for reuse.

Slate supports 7 aspect ratios for generated images:

RatioBest for
1:1Square graphics, icons, profile images
16:9Widescreen, hero images, presentations
9:16Vertical, mobile-oriented content
4:3Standard content images
3:4Portrait orientation
3:2Photography-style images
2:3Tall portrait images

Choose the ratio that best fits your layout before generating.

The quality of the generated image depends on your description. Be specific about:

  • Subject - what should be in the image
  • Style - illustration, photograph, diagram, flat design, etc.
  • Context - where the subject is, what’s happening
  • Mood - professional, friendly, technical, etc.

For example, “a diverse group of professionals collaborating around a whiteboard in a modern office, flat illustration style” produces better results than “people working.”

Each image generation costs 250 AI credits. Credits are deducted when the image is generated. If the result isn’t what you need, you can regenerate with a revised prompt (each generation costs credits).
