Understanding the preview and regeneration

Learn how to review, regenerate, and refine your Landing page in the Preview screen before importing it to your theme.

Written by Atlas Team

After generating a Landing page, Atlas takes you to the Preview sales page screen. This is where you review the AI-generated content, regenerate it with new instructions if needed, and import it into your Shopify theme when you're happy with it.

In this article:


The Preview screen layout

The Preview screen is divided into two main sections:

  • Left panel. Content information, product details, and the regeneration controls.

  • Right panel. A live scrollable preview of how your Landing page will look once published.

At the top right of the screen, you'll also see a standalone Import to theme button, which is available at all times so you can import your Landing page the moment you're satisfied with it.


Selected product

At the top of the left panel, you'll see:

  • Page title. The name of the Landing page (typically the product name).

  • Instruction text. "Review your listicle below. Import when you're ready." (Or "advertorial" if you selected Advertorial.)

  • Selected product card. Product thumbnail, name, and price.

This confirms the Landing page is being built for the correct product before you make any changes.


Edit AI context and regenerate

Below the selected product, you'll find the Edit AI context & regenerate section. This is where you refine the Landing page by giving the AI new instructions.

The section includes:

  • Description. "Regenerating will create new content based on the updated context. The preview will update after regeneration is complete."

  • Custom context field. A text area where you can enter new or modified instructions for the AI. The placeholder reads: "E.g., Use a confident tone, focus on benefits, keep paragraphs short, highlight the guarantee..."

  • Helper text. "This replaces the current context and regenerates the entire content."

⚠️ Regenerating is destructive. Anything you write in the Custom context field completely replaces the original context used during the first generation, and the entire Landing page is regenerated from scratch. There's no undo, so if you have a version you like, import it first before regenerating.

Action buttons

At the bottom of the left panel, you'll see two buttons:

  • Regenerate. Uses the Custom context you've provided and generates entirely new content.

  • Import to theme. Imports the current preview content into your selected Shopify theme as a new page.


The live preview

The right panel shows a real-time preview of how your Landing page will look when published.

Header elements

  • Promotional banner. A colored banner at the top with offer text (for example, "BEAUTY WAND Up to 30% Off") and a countdown timer.

  • Trust badge. Star rating and customer count (for example, "★★★★★ Trusted by 50,000+ Customers").

  • Author byline. Auto-generated author name and publication date (for example, "By Sarah Mitchell | December 5th, 2025 | 10:35 am EST").

Content elements

For Listicles:

  • Numbered headline in the format "[Number] Reasons Why [Product] Could Be the Secret to [Benefit]"

  • Product summary section

  • Numbered list items with bold benefit statements and supporting descriptive text

  • Product images interspersed throughout

For Advertorials:

  • Editorial-style headline

  • Story-driven introduction

  • Narrative content sections

  • Product feature highlights woven into the story

  • Call-to-action elements

Preview interaction

The preview is fully scrollable, so you can see the entire Landing page before importing. What you see in the preview is what will be imported to your theme, so use this time to review everything carefully.


When to regenerate

Consider regenerating your Landing page when:

  • The tone doesn't match your brand voice

  • Important features or benefits are missing

  • The content is too long or too short

  • You want to try a different angle or approach

  • The AI missed key information from your original research context

  • You received customer feedback about what resonates


How to regenerate

  • In the left panel, find the Custom context text area under Edit AI context & regenerate.

  • Enter your new instructions or modifications.

  • Click Regenerate.

  • Wait for the new content to generate (most Landing pages regenerate within 1-3 minutes).

  • Review the updated preview.

💡 Regeneration uses the same four-stage process as the original generation (fetching product data, AI analyzing, creating content, preparing for preview). You can close the tab and come back, the regeneration continues in the background.


Example regeneration prompts

Here are common regeneration goals and the Custom context prompts that achieve them:

Shorten content. "Keep paragraphs to 2-3 sentences maximum. Make it scannable."

Add urgency. "Include urgency elements like limited stock, ending sale, exclusive offer."

Change tone. "More casual and fun, less corporate. Use contractions."

Add specifics. "Include the 30-day guarantee more prominently. Mention free returns."

Improve structure. "Lead with the strongest benefit first. End with a clear call-to-action."


Regeneration tips

  • Be specific. Instead of "make it better," try "Use shorter sentences, add more urgency, mention the free shipping offer."

  • Iterate gradually. Make one or two changes at a time so you can understand what works best.

  • Save good versions. If you generate content you like, import it before regenerating again. Once you regenerate, the previous version is gone.


Quality control checklist before importing

Before clicking Import to theme, take a minute to verify:

  • Product name and price are correct

  • Benefits mentioned are accurate

  • No competitor names used inappropriately

  • Tone matches your brand

  • No spelling or grammar errors

  • Images display correctly in the preview

  • Call-to-action is clear

💡 Spending two minutes on this checklist now saves you from having to delete and regenerate the page later, or from pushing poor-quality content to your live theme.
