Review AI edits before they land

When the AI edits a document, nothing becomes final until you approve it: every change appears highlighted in the text, word by word — deletions in red, insertions in green. A bar at the top of the document counts the open changes, and you decide what stays.

Review a change

1. Ask for an edit — in the chat, or with an AI button above the document such as Simplify.
2. Wait for the AI to finish. A bar appears at the top of the document showing the number of changes to review.
3. To judge changes one by one: click a highlighted passage.
4. In the small popup, click Accept or Reject.
5. To settle the rest in one go: in the bar at the top, click Accept All or Reject All.
6. The highlights disappear and the document status shows Saved — the text you approved is now the document.

Good to know

• The review waits for you. If you close the document mid-review, the highlights are still there the next time you open it.
• Rejecting a change restores exactly the words that were there before. The rest of the document is untouched.
• Accepted too much? Open Version history in the document toolbar — a snapshot from just before the AI edit is kept there. See Version history.
