How to add images, videos, and files

Last updated September 28, 2026

You add images, videos, and files by uploading them in the chat and telling the AI where to put them. Repaint accepts most file types up to 16 MB each, including photos, videos, and PDFs.

How to add a file

Adding a file works like any other edit. You attach it to your message and tell the AI where it should go, and your preview updates once it's added.

If you don't have the right photo, Repaint can generate images with AI or edit the ones you have. You can also add other kinds of embeds, like maps or social feeds.

Example prompts

“Add the headshot I uploaded to the team section.”

“Add a Download our menu button on the Menu page that links to this PDF.”

“Add the short demo video I uploaded to the top of the homepage.”

Adding videos

Short video clips under 16 MB can be uploaded directly in the chat. Longer videos are usually bigger than that. For those, the best option is to host them on a platform like YouTube and embed them on your site.

To embed a video, you can paste the link into the chat and say where you want it. Embedding also keeps your site fast, since the video streams from the host rather than loading from your own site. It's also a good way to add longer lesson videos to an online course or membership.

“Embed this YouTube video on our About page: youtube.com/watch?v=abc123”
