AI chat
Ask questions about your procurement analysis and get instant answers.
The AI chat lets you have a conversation about your procurement. It knows about your RFP, bid documents, and analysis results, so you can ask specific questions without digging through pages manually.
What you can ask
Anything related to your procurement data. Some examples:
- "Why was concern #5 about the ISO certification raised?"
- "What does Vendor A say about their delivery timeline?"
- "How do Vendor A and Vendor B compare on team experience?"
- "Summarize the strengths of each bid"
- "What evidence supports the 'missing financial guarantee' finding?"
- "Are there any contradictions in Vendor C's proposal?"
The AI draws on the same documents and analysis results you see in the interface. It's like having a colleague who read everything and can answer questions on the spot.
How to use it
Open the chat from your procurement page. Type your question in plain language. The AI responds with relevant information, citing specific documents and findings where applicable.
You can have a back-and-forth conversation - ask follow-up questions, dig deeper into a topic, or change subjects entirely.
What it can't do
The chat is read-only. It can explain, summarize, and compare, but it can't:
- Change analysis results - findings are fixed once the analysis completes
- Re-analyze documents - use the Analyze button for that
- Access other procurements - the chat's context is limited to the current procurement
- Make decisions for you - it presents information, you decide what it means
The chat works best when you're specific. "Tell me about Vendor A" is fine but broad. "Does Vendor A meet the staffing requirements in Section 4.2?" gets you a more useful answer.
When it's most useful
- After reviewing results - when a finding doesn't make sense and you want clarification
- Preparing for evaluation meetings - quickly gather talking points about each vendor
- Checking specific details - faster than searching through 200 pages manually
- Comparing vendor positions - "How does each vendor address requirement X?" across all bids
