AI Studio: Guided Design Preferences for Websites

TL;DR

AI Studio now allows users to set design preferences for website generation. This is a standard update; no immediate action is required unless you use AI Studio for website creation.

Who this affects

This update affects users working within AI Studio. Specifically, those who use AI Studio for website generation will find this relevant. HighLevel has not confirmed who is affected, so it's not clear if this is for all users or specific plan levels. Those not using AI Studio for website creation can safely ignore this.

What changed

AI Studio has gained new functionality for guiding website design. Users can now specify their preferred design elements before the AI generates a website. The specific changes include:

• AI Studio now allows users to set design preferences for website generation.
• Users can set preferences for colors.
• Users can set preferences for fonts.
• Users can set preferences for layouts.

HighLevel has not confirmed any limits or plan gating for this feature. The rollout status is also unknown.

Where to find it

This new functionality is located within AI Studio. HighLevel has not published the exact navigation path. Based on the feature description, expect to find these preferences in the AI Studio interface when initiating or configuring website generation.

How agencies will use this

Agencies can use these guided design preferences to streamline website creation for clients. Imagine a new client, 'Local Cafe Inc.', requests a simple website. Instead of generating a site and then manually adjusting all design elements, an agency owner can now enter AI Studio, select the option to generate a website, and proactively set design preferences. They can input the client's brand colors, specify a modern sans-serif font, and choose a multi-section layout with a clear call-to-action at the top. This provides a better starting point, reducing the post-generation editing time for the agency and aligning the initial output closer to the client's brand guidelines from the outset. This pre-configuration saves iterations and allows the agency to deliver a more polished first draft.

Our take

This is a minor update. While it improves the initial output from AI Studio, it doesn't fundamentally change how agencies build websites or onboard clients. It's an incremental step towards a more refined AI generation process. For agencies already using AI Studio for website creation, this will be a welcome efficiency gain. For others, it's not a reason to start using AI Studio or change current workflows.
