  • Review your current allowance in Usage & limits.

Check that the source uploaded successfully and belongs to the intended project. Your project access and available usage allowance affect the actions you can perform.

  1. Open Projects and the project containing the source video.
  2. Choose Generate on the source row. In the dialog, set Source language and choose the output language versions you need. The source version remains selected.
  3. If an existing guide warning appears, review the overwrite warning. Choose Duplicate first if you need to retain a separate copy before running again.
  4. Confirm Generate or Run AI, matching the button shown. Submit once and watch the source’s progress.
  5. When the generated guide is ready, choose Open editor and review its instructions and screenshots.

Important

Generating again can replace the guide content. Review the warning and preserve any copy you need before confirming.

Processing time depends on the recording and current workload. A waiting or processing state is not a completed guide. Avoid submitting duplicate jobs; check the existing item's status and any error message first.
