Tell It, Show It, Paste It: Choose The Way You Work


One of the first things you'll notice about ShortPoint AI Designer is how flexible it is when it comes to how you interact with it. You're not stuck with one way of working. You can choose the way that feels most natural to you:


  • Text prompts - Just type out what you want in plain language. Super simple! "Create a hero section with a welcome message and 3 quick link cards" is all it takes. Learn More
  • Voice input - Or you could just talk to it. You can literally say out loud your design ideas and let the AI agent do the heavy lifting. Learn More
  • Image attachments - Got a design reference image? Attach it, and the AI will pick up visual cues from it to enhance your intranet. Learn More
  • Copy and paste - Need more options? Well, just grab an image from anywhere and paste it into the prompt area. Easy as can be. Learn More



  • Select and Edit - Have an existing design? You can select any element in your page and ask ShortPoint AI Designer to modify it. Learn More

This multi-faceted approach lets you work with the AI in the same way as you'd brief a designer: using words, visuals, or a bit of both. This provides quick access and multiple entry points to create stunning SharePoint sites.


Start with a ShortPoint Template, Then Make It Yours

Dynamic Content Made Simple


Static intranet pages are a thing of the past. With ShortPoint Connect integrated into ShortPoint AI Designer, you'll be able to pull data from your organization's internal and external sources (including Microsoft Graph API and REST APIs) and generate pages that reflect real, up-to-date information.


Imagine an AI-powered employee directory that pulls from your HR system, a news feed that surfaces content from your CMS, or a dynamic dashboard that displays live KPIs. You don't just get an intranet that's pretty to look at. You get one that actually matters to your team, delivering relevant content and supporting better collaboration and decision making.

NOTECurrently, you can only use the Microsoft Graph API and REST API connection when interacting with the ShortPoint AI Designer.

Interactive by Default with the ShortPoint Search & Filter Toolbar


A nice-looking SharePoint intranet is just the starting point; what really matters is how people use it. That's why the ShortPoint AI Designer comes with built-in smart interactivity powered by our Search & Filter Toolbar.


Pages generated with this AI-powered tool can include features like:

  • Search - so your users can find what they need quickly with context-aware results
  • Filter and Sort - for keeping content-heavy pages tidy and improving productivity
  • Pagination - to keep long lists of documents and files from getting out of hand
  • Tabs - for breaking up content into neat, easy-to-browse chunks
  • Date filtering - perfect for organizing events or date-related content with dynamic controls.

A Design Partner That Remembers


Working with artificial intelligence tools can be a bit of a challenge at times. Especially when you have to start over from scratch every time you use it. ShortPoint AI Designer fixes that.


Our platform supports multi-turn conversations, which means that the AI Designer remembers what you were talking about across all the prompts you have. You can say "make the header bolder" after a generation, and it knows exactly what you're referring to. Even better:


  • Version history - Every generation is saved, so you can browse, preview, and revert to any previous design at any time. Learn More
  • Persistent conversations - Your conversation is stored directly in SharePoint, so you can shut the browser down, come back tomorrow, and pick up right where you left off. This ensures seamless collaboration and knowledge continuity. Learn More

Queue Your Prompts

Got a list of things you want to generate? Don't wait. With the Prompt Queue feature, you can fire off multiple prompts while one is still in progress. ShortPoint AI Designer will work its way through them in order, keeping your workflow smooth and efficient. This AI-powered capability ensures a smoother workflow and enhances your productivity when creating content and designing pages for your SharePoint sites. No more wasted time here!
