✨Revel Digital AI Features
Revel Digital includes a suite of AI-powered tools to help you create content, build schedules, and manage your digital signage network using natural language. All AI tools use a conversational chat interface. Describe what you want, review the result, and refine iteratively.
1. Template Generator
Generate complete template layouts from a text description. The generator produces a full layout with zones, background imagery, and content modules that you can accept and further customize in the template editor.
How to Use
- Open the Template Generator from the Templates section.
- Enter a prompt describing your layout (e.g., "design a menu board for my coffee shop").
- Review the generated preview and explanation.
- Refine by typing follow-up instructions, or click a suggested hint chip.
- Click Accept This to save the template.
Generative Options
Click the sliders (?) icon to configure the following options before generating:
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Brand Theme | Apply one of your saved brand themes (colors, fonts, logo). Only visible if themes exist on the account. |
| Styles | Image style applied to background artwork. Multiple can be selected. |
| Color Schemes | Overall color palette direction. Multiple can be selected. |
| Primary Color | Pick a specific primary color via the color picker. Disabled when a brand theme is selected. |
| Resolution | Target screen size and orientation. |
| Reference Image | Upload an image to use as visual inspiration for the generated layout. |
Available Styles
Photo Realistic · Illustration · Cartoon · Line Art · Pixel Art · 3D Render · Abstract · Minimalist · Gradient / Modern · Geometric · Surreal · Vintage · Pop Art · Graffiti · Collage · Conceptual · Fantasy · Cyberpunk · Steampunk · Art Deco · Art Nouveau
Available Color Schemes
Warm · Cool · Monochrome · Pastel · Vibrant · Muted · Neon · Earthy · Metallic · Black and White · Sepia · Rainbow · Gradient · Duotone · Triadic · Analogous · Complementary · Split Complementary · Tetradic
Available Resolutions
| Name | Orientation |
|---|---|
| HD Landscape | Landscape |
| 4K Landscape | Landscape |
| HD Portrait | Portrait |
| 4K Portrait | Portrait |
Tips:
- Upload a Reference Image of an existing design and the generator will analyze its layout and recreate a similar structure.
- Apply a Brand Theme to ensure generated templates match your brand colors, fonts, and logo.
- The more detail you provide in your prompt (purpose, content areas, style), the better the result. Follow-up prompts refine the current design rather than starting over.
2. Image Generator
Generate standalone images from a text description. Useful for creating background art, promotional graphics, or any visual asset for your media library.
How to Use
- Open the Image Generator from the Media section.
- Enter a prompt (e.g., "moon made of cheese hanging by a string in a night sky full of stars").
- Review the generated images and click one to select it.
- Refine with follow-up prompts or click hint chips for variations.
Generative Options
| Option | Description |
|---|---|
| Image Styles | Same style list as the Template Generator. Multiple can be selected. |
| Color Schemes | Same color scheme list as the Template Generator. Multiple can be selected. |
| Aspect Ratio | Landscape 16:9 (default) · Portrait 9:16 · Square 1:1 · Standard 4:3 · Portrait Standard 3:4 |
| Format | JPG (default) or PNG |
Tips:
- Use PNG format when you need transparency in the generated image.
- Combine multiple Styles and Color Schemes for more specific results (e.g., Minimalist + Pastel).
- The AI may revise your prompt to improve results, the revised prompt is shown below the generated images.
3. Schedule Generator
Create schedules using natural language. Describe which content should play on which devices and when, and the AI will build the schedule rules for you.
How to Use
- Open the Schedule Generator from the Schedules section.
- Describe your scheduling requirements (e.g., "Schedule the Menu Board template on all devices in the Cafe group for Mondays from 10AM to 8PM").
- Review the generated schedule and explanation.
- Refine with follow-up instructions or click a hint chip.
- Click Accept This to save the schedule.
4. Account Assistant
A conversational AI assistant with direct access to your account data via the Revel Digital API. Ask questions, run queries, and get actionable insights about your digital signage network.
Capabilities
- Device Management: query online/offline status, sync state, ping data, location, and group assignments.
- Content Queries: look up media, playlists, templates, and schedules across your account.
- Analytics & Monitoring: retrieve play statistics, device metrics, audience data, and trend analysis.
- Alerts: view active and resolved system alerts for device issues and connectivity problems.
- Audit Trail: review API activity, logins, and user actions (account owner only).
- Data Visualization: the assistant can render inline SVG charts for metrics and trends directly in the chat.
Example Prompts
- "Show me all offline devices"
- "What templates are assigned to the Lobby group?"
- "Graph play statistics for the past week"
- "List all alerts from today"
Tips:
- Ask the assistant to graph or chart data and it will render interactive SVG visualizations directly in the chat.
- Use specific names when referring to devices, groups, or templates for more accurate results.
- Audit Trail queries require account owner permissions.
5. AI Agents & Automated Tasks
AI Agents are the autonomous counterpart to the Account Assistant. Instead of answering you live in a chat, an agent runs a plain-language prompt automatically when something triggers it — on a schedule, in response to an account event, or when an external system calls a webhook. The same capabilities the Account Assistant has (device management, content queries, analytics, and actions) are available to agents, executed on your behalf without you in the loop.
Trigger Types
An agent task can be fired three ways:
| Trigger | Description |
|---|---|
| ⏰ Schedule | Runs on a recurring cadence — every morning, hourly, nightly — for monitoring and routine maintenance. |
| ⚡ Event | Fires automatically when something happens in your account, such as new media being uploaded or a new device registering. |
| 🪝 Webhook | Fires when an external system posts data to the task's webhook URL. The posted payload becomes context the agent can act on, enabling integrations with tools like Zapier, Make, n8n, and Power Automate. |
What Agents Can Do
- Autonomous content review: analyze newly uploaded media for offensive or off-brand content before it reaches your screens.
- Media preparation: generate fleet-appropriate size or format variants of uploaded media automatically.
- Device onboarding: apply default content, groups, or settings when a new device registers.
- Performance monitoring: run scheduled network- and media-performance checks and surface issues or trends.
- Cross-system automation: turn webhook payloads from third-party workflow tools into signage actions.
Example Prompts
- "Review newly uploaded media for offensive or off-brand content and hold anything questionable for approval"
- "When a new device registers, add it to the Lobby group and assign the default playlist"
- "Every morning, summarize offline devices and any alerts from the past 24 hours"
Tips:
- Use Run Now to test an agent against a sample payload before enabling its trigger.
- Describe the outcome you want in plain language rather than scripting each step — the agent reasons about the trigger context and decides what to do.
- Start agents with least-privilege access and enable Media Approval so generated or modified media is held for review before it can be scheduled.
Agents run as Tasks using the AI Analysis task type, and their access to account data is governed by the AgenticAI role. For full setup, trigger configuration, permissions, and the Media Approval workflow, see AI Analytics & Agents and Scheduled Tasks.
