The In-Editor AI Assistant
What it does: Two editing superpowers inside the editor itself: highlight any text and transform it (free in Lite), or tell the AI what to do with the whole post (Publisher).
Applies to Antradus AI Lite, Publisher & Studio v2.20.1 · Last updated 2026-10-15
Tool 1: Highlight & transform ("AI ✨")
Select any text while writing, then:
- Classic editor: open the AI ✨ dropdown in the toolbar.
- Block editor: the option appears in the block’s text toolbar.
Pick a transform; the highlighted text is replaced with the result (Ctrl+Z brings the original back):
| Menu item | What it does |
|---|---|
| 🖊 Rewrite | Says the same thing differently |
| 💎 Enhance / Improve | Better wording, stronger flow |
| ➕ Expand (more detail) | Grows the selection with added substance |
| ➖ Shorten | Tightens it without losing the point |
| 🩹 Fix Grammar & Spelling | Corrections only; your voice stays |
| 🌍 Translate to… | Any of the 17 supported languages |
| ⭐ My instruction | One-click runs your saved custom instruction (see below) |
| ✏️ Custom instruction… | Type any one-off instruction: "make this a bulleted list", "add a statistic", "write like a pirate" |
Your saved instruction
If you find yourself typing the same custom instruction repeatedly ("simplify to 8th-grade reading level"), save it once under Antradus AI → 🪄 Editor AI Assistant → My Custom Instruction. It then appears as the ⭐ one-click item in the menu.
Tool 2: Whole-post assistant (Publisher)
At the bottom of the Antradus AI panel there’s a pill labelled 💬 Tell Antradus AI what to do with this post (in Lite it shows as a 🔒 locked row). Type an instruction that applies to the entire article:
- "Add a comparison table after the second heading"
- "Make the intro punchier and end with a question"
- "Translate the whole post to Spanish"
The AI rewrites the whole body accordingly. Undo restores the previous version.
Your media is safe (v2.0.3): images, figures/captions, galleries, embeds, and shortcodes in the post are preserved exactly through an edit (an image stays an image with the same file) unless your instruction explicitly asks to remove or replace them.
Long posts (v2.15.0): posts over roughly 2,000 words are handled one section at a time. The status line counts the sections as they go (Working on section 3 of 6…). Nothing in the editor changes until every section is back. If one fails, the post stays exactly as it was. Each section is told where it sits in the post, so it does not grow its own introduction or conclusion. An instruction that needs the whole post at once, such as "summarise this in 200 words", is spotted first and sent in one go, because its answer is short. Posts over ~25,000 words are still refused.
Tips & gotchas
- Transforms work on any text, including content you wrote yourself or imported; the post doesn’t need to be AI-generated.
- Selection size matters: transforms are for sentences-to-sections. For the whole article, use the whole-post assistant instead.
- Both tools use your configured provider/model; quality follows the model you picked.
