# Edit your Blueprint manually or request an AI proposal

Once you have a Product Blueprint, edit its name and descriptions manually, or ask AI to propose changes across related pages and workflows.

This article covers the Blueprint review page before generating an app in Builder. To update an app that has already been generated, see [Request changes to your app](https://ideamade.ai/help/request-changes).

## Edit manually and save

1. Select **Edit Blueprint** at the top of the Blueprint.
2. Update **Product name** and **What problem should this app solve?** as needed. This example clarifies that the app is for the designer to record and follow up with clients.

[![The manual editor initially shows the product name and problem statement, with optional sections below.](https://ideamade.ai/help/en/blueprint-manual-form.jpg)](https://ideamade.ai/help/en/blueprint-manual-form.jpg)

_Start with the overview. Expand users and responsibilities, page arrangement, or core workflows when needed._

3. For more specific changes, expand **Users and responsibilities (optional)**, **Page arrangement (optional)**, or **Core workflows (optional)**.
4. Select **Save version**. To leave your current input unsaved, select **Cancel**.
5. Back in the Blueprint, check the name, overview, and edited sections. The version number at the top should increase.

[![The saved Blueprint displays the updated product overview and version number.](https://ideamade.ai/help/en/blueprint-manual-saved.jpg)](https://ideamade.ai/help/en/blueprint-manual-saved.jpg)

_Saving the overview creates version 2 in this example. Your number depends on earlier edits._

Manual editing saves what you enter. If the change affects other sections, check the related pages and workflows or use an AI proposal as described below.

## Describe the change you want AI to propose

Find **Propose a change with AI** near the bottom of the Blueprint. Explain what to add or change, where it belongs, which existing behavior to keep, and what remains out of scope.

This example uses:

> Add an optional next contact date to client information. Let me enter it in client details and show it in the client list. Keep the existing fields, statuses, search, and filters. Do not send reminders yet.

[![The AI request specifies an optional next contact date, its pages, preserved behavior, and no reminders.](https://ideamade.ai/help/en/blueprint-ai-request.jpg)](https://ideamade.ai/help/en/blueprint-ai-request.jpg)

_Describe a specific change together with what to preserve and what to exclude._

Select **Review proposal** and wait for the proposal, then follow the steps below to review and confirm it.

## Review and confirm the changes

1. Read the summary to check that the proposal understands your request.
2. Under **What will change**, expand relevant items and compare before and after values.
3. Read **What to consider**. In this example, check that the date is optional, appears in client details and the list, preserves search and filters, and does not send reminders.

_Review the affected pages, workflows, and data requirements against the goal of this change._

4. Select **Confirm change** if it matches your intent. Otherwise, select **Not now**, refine the request, and submit it again.
5. Back in the Blueprint, check the affected content and version history. The page descriptions in this example now include the next contact date.

[![After confirmation, the edit-client workflow includes the next contact date and the page structure remains in place.](https://ideamade.ai/help/en/blueprint-ai-saved.jpg)](https://ideamade.ai/help/en/blueprint-ai-saved.jpg)

_The Blueprint now includes the next contact date requirement, ready for the rest of your review._

## Common questions

### What remains after canceling a manual edit?

The saved Blueprint and revision history stay as they are. The current unsaved input is discarded.
