# Create next

> Automatically generate the next version of a document, with new content highlighted

Use **Create next** to start the next version of an existing document: dates, numbering, and recurring content are updated automatically, and any additions are visually flagged.

<Info>
  This feature is available starting from the [**Pro** plan](/billing/plans/index).

## Difference from duplication

**Duplicate** copies a document as-is. It's useful for reusing a structure — similar to starting from a previous Word or Excel file to write a new weekly report. But it makes no distinction between old content and new.

**Create next** goes further:

* recurring elements (dates, numbering, titles) are updated automatically by AI
* added or modified content is highlighted with a margin marker
* the previous document remains untouched and accessible

This is particularly suited to documents produced on a regular cycle: meeting minutes, progress reports, weekly summaries.

## Creating the next version

1. Open an existing document.
2. Click <Icon icon="ellipsis" /> (document menu) and choose **Create next**.
3. Configure the options in the dialog that appears.
4. Click **Create**.

## Available options

| Option                      | Description                                                                                                                                                                                                         |
| --------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Auto-update**             | AI detects and updates dates, numbering, and recurring content. *Example: MR-12 Haussmann facade restoration – 14/02/26 → MR-13 Haussmann facade restoration – 21/02/26.*                                           |
| **Highlight changes**       | A marker is added in the margin next to each piece of content that was added or changed. Lets readers immediately spot what has changed.                                                                            |
| **Archive completed items** | [Tasks](/features/document/blocks/tasks) marked as complete are archived and removed from the new document. [Progress tracking](/features/document/blocks/progress) categories that reached 100% are also archived. |
| **Update reminders**        | The number and date of [reminders](/features/document/mentions) can be updated automatically.                                                                                                                       |
| **Keep files**              | Files attached to the previous document are included in the new one.                                                                                                                                                |
