What You Can Now Do
Context Memo now streams Copilot edits onto a locked canvas preview in real time as the Page Builder Copilot generates content, so you no longer wait for the full generation to complete before seeing the result. The canvas becomes the progress indicator: headings resolve, then body copy fills in, then the rest of the section settles. What changes for you is the point at which you make a judgment call. Instead of reading a finished draft and deciding whether to rerun it, you can tell within the first few seconds whether the Copilot understood the instruction, and reissue a sharper one if it didn't.
Where It Is in Context Memo
This lives in Page Builder. Open any memo or page in the builder, open the Copilot panel, and the canvas to the left of it is now a live preview surface. While the model writes, the canvas locks and renders each edit as it arrives. When generation ends, the lock releases and the canvas returns to normal editing. There's no setting to switch on and no separate preview mode to enter.
How to Use It
- Open Page Builder and load the memo or page you want to change. The canvas renders the current state of the page.
- Open the Copilot panel and give it an instruction, for example rewriting a section for a specific persona or tightening a positioning paragraph. The canvas locks as generation begins.
- Watch the edits land on the canvas while the model writes. You see the actual content in position on the page, not a loading state or a side-panel text stream.
- If the direction is wrong, let the generation finish and reissue the instruction with the correction. You already know what to fix because you watched it happen.
- When generation completes, the canvas unlocks. Edit directly, adjust schema blocks, and publish to your own domain as you normally would.
Why We Built It
Customers kept telling us the same thing: they had no idea what the Copilot was building on their page until the entire generation finished. That meant waiting through a full generation to find out the Copilot had misread a one-line instruction, then running it again. On a memo with several sections, those blind waits add up, and they push people toward generating less and editing more by hand, which is the slower path to a publishable memo. Streaming the edits onto the canvas removes the wait and puts the feedback where the work is.
What It Does Not Do Yet
The canvas is locked while the Copilot is writing. You can't edit a different section of the page mid-generation, and you can't steer the generation while it runs. Both happen after the lock releases.
A few other boundaries worth being clear about:
- The preview is the page, not a separate render. What you watch arriving on the canvas is the content being written to the page. There's no second rendering path to reconcile, so what you see is what the editor holds when the lock lifts.
- Nothing is published by streaming. Live preview is a view of the draft state in Page Builder. Publishing to your domain remains a separate, explicit action.
- Page Builder is not a CMS replacement. It's built to produce and publish citation-grade memos on your domain, with schema markup and the structure AI models read well. For broader site management, keep your existing CMS as the system of record and use Page Builder for the memo layer.
One more practical note for teams running memo production at volume. Because you can now see the first lines of a generation immediately, the fastest workflow is usually to write a tighter instruction up front rather than a long one. Short, specific prompts resolve on the canvas quickly enough that you can judge fit in seconds, which makes iteration cheap. Long multi-part instructions still work, but you lose some of the benefit of early visual feedback because the first section on screen tells you less about the rest.
If your team reviews memos before publishing, the locked preview also gives reviewers something concrete to look at during generation instead of a blank panel, which tends to shorten the review conversation.
