How to Edit Content Using Agent

Step 1: Access Agent

  • Keyboard shortcut: CMD+E on Macs, CTRL+E on Windows.

  • Open your gamma and navigate to the card you want to edit.

    • Click on the sparkle icon in the top left corner of the card to open Agent.

  • Click on the agent button in the upper right corner of your gamma.

Step 2: Use Agent to Edit Your Card or Entire Gamma

Once the Agent chat window opens, Agent can do the following for you:

  • Search the web for real-time information

  • Read URLs. For example, "Take this article about company X and create a card about them."

  • Make edits across all cards at once for consistent updates

  • Change the theme of the presentation with a simple request

  • Extract info from images. For example, screenshot an Excel table and ask Agent to recreate it in Gamma so it looks on-brand instead of like an Excel screenshot

  • Add cards. For example, "Add an executive summary"

  • Fix spelling and grammar – AI will correct errors and improve readability

  • Translate text – AI can translate the entire card into another language

  • Summarize content – AI will generate a concise summary of the card

  • Use custom commands – Type specific instructions (e.g., "Make this more formal")

Step 3: Apply Changes

  1. Review the various outputs in the Agent chat.

  2. Select the one you like best.

  3. If needed, refine your command and regenerate the edit.

FAQs & Common Issues

Is Agent just Gamma's Chat with AI feature with a new name?

Why isn’t Agent editing my content?

  • Ensure you have an active internet connection.

  • AI does not function while content is being generated - wait for the process to finish.

  • There are limits to the length of a chat thread in Agent. You may need to start a new chat.

Can I edit Agent generated content manually?

  • Yes! After Agent makes edits, you can further refine them manually.

Can Agent format my text (bold, italics, lists, etc.)?

  • Absolutely! However, theme-level changes such as fonts can be only be changed if you change the entire theme. Yes, Agent can change the theme for you.
