How to use Studio card
Find the Studio card: Studio card is currently available only in self-paced courses. Access it via the card picker within the course editor.
Create and edit: start by entering a prompt for the type of card you want. You can attach images and PDFs as inspiration for the card, and you can edit text directly in the card using ⌥ (the Option key) or Alt on a non-Apple device. The edit agent works on the card with you, so you can make quick changes without prompting.
Iterate easily: ask Edit mode for changes in plain language and review what it proposes. You can keep working on other parts of the course while the agent works on the card, and you can go back to any earlier version and restore it.
Search and translate automatically: Studio cards published or republished after the release are searchable and translatable. Existing Studio cards need to be republished once to be indexed. A small edit and republish is enough; you don’t need to regenerate the card.
Important notes
Direct text editing: you can edit text directly in the card using ⌥ (the Option key) or Alt on a non-Apple device, so you can make small wording changes without prompting.
Inspiration files: you can attach images and PDFs for the agent to use as inspiration when it builds or updates the card.
Aware of your course: the agent can see your course outline and read other parts of the course as it works, so your card stays aligned with the rest of your content.
Version history: you can go back to any earlier version of the card and restore it.
Searchable content: Studio card content is indexed alongside standard cards, making it discoverable through course search and available to the AI Tutor. Existing Studio cards need to be republished once before they are indexed.

Suggestions powered by content: suggestions you receive are based on your course’s content, helping you stay relevant and on-topic.
No analytics: analytics for Studio cards are not yet available.
Completion states: content in the card is not yet tied to any completion state, meaning the card will get marked as completed after viewing it.
Choosing the right card for the job
The Studio card is a powerful tool for creative content, but some learning experiences are better supported by other cards available in Sana. To ensure you get the most out of your content, consider these recommendations:
Quizzes and assessments: use dedicated question or assessment cards. The Studio card can’t save or track results in Insights. Read more about question or assessment cards here.
Scenarios: for immersive scenario-based learning, the Scenario card is your best option. Read more about the Scenario card here.
Collaboration and tracking over time: for peer learning, live collaboration, or progress tracking, use Live sessions, Reflections, or Assessments for full functionality.
Complex coding practice: for technical assessments or production tests, specialized tools are more effective.
Selecting the right card in Sana helps you deliver the best learning experience and ensures you have access to all the features you need.
