Using AI Assist

AI Assist helps you find, review, and prepare for meetings by asking questions in plain language.

  1. Select the AI Assist or Ask about meeting & materials button to open the chat panel. 
  2. Ask any question about past, current, or upcoming meetings or materials.

AI Assist can see the page you are viewing. While a meeting book or document is open, you can ask questions like "Summarize this." 

To ask about a specific passage, highlight the text first and then ask your question.

From a meeting's agenda, select Help Me Prepare next to an agenda section to get a summary of that section's book materials.

At any time, try prompts like these:

  • "When is the next [committee name] meeting?"
  • "Summarize the book for the [committee name] meeting on [date]."
  • "Find documents about [topic] from the last 6 months."
  • "What was discussed about [topic] at recent [committee name] meetings?"

Select New Conversation to start a new topic. Earlier conversations are saved so you can return to them.

Note: AI Assist only shows content you already have permission to view. The content it can search depends on your organization's plan and settings. AI Assist cannot download, annotate, or share documents, and it cannot vote, sign, or take other actions for you.
For more information on AI Assist, review the AI Assist Article.
