Understand how AI indexing works

Inspire provides a way to add content to an AI index to create an AI-powered search. This search can be used to help authors develop content as well as provide quick answers for your customers if you are creating your own chatbot.

To access this premium feature, you must purchase it separately. Contact your Vasont customer representative to invest in efficiency and discover how AI can elevate your search experience today!

  • Unlock the Power of AI-Driven Search Experience.
  • Get smarter, faster, and more intuitive search with our advanced AI-powered technology.
  • Gain deeper insights, find exactly what you need, and streamline your workflow—all with precision and ease.

If you purchased the AI premium feature, you can open a component in the Oxygen editor provided by Inspire to use the AI Assistant pane.

Inspire's AI Assistant is an AI-powered search. The assistant takes the concept of traditional search engines and supercharges it with artificial intelligence. Instead of just matching keywords, it tries to understand what you mean—the context, intent, and nuance behind your query.

  • The AI assistant searches data and answers questions using content stored in an AI Index.
  • The index stores numerical representations of the data to empower the search to go beyond simple keyword matching and to understand the context and intent behind a search query.

To enable your AI Assistant to answer your questions:

  1. Setting up AI
    1. An administrator must purchase the premium AI feature.
    2. An administrator must create an index to store the AI data.
  2. Adding content to AI

    Currently, images are not supported in an AI index.

    1. Inspire automatically adds content for an approval or submittal index.
    2. Users can manually add data to an index.
    3. Data is updated in the index by Inspire automatically for an approval or submittal index.
    4. Users can manually remove data from an index.
  3. Using AI search
    1. Open a component in the Oxygen editor and ask a question in the AI Assistant pane. You can insert or copy the answers you get.
    2. Admins can copy the index's ID to access the content from a proprietary chat bot.

An administrator must enable the ability to create an index.

This requires the Administrator to use the Administration module to configure the Advanced settings for Features management.

Next, an administrator must use the Administration module to open the AI configuration management screen to create an index to store the AI data.

After an administrator creates an index, Inspire adds to it automatically.

  • For example, if an admin creates an Approve index, anytime an Inspire user approves a component, Inspire automatically adds that component's data to the Approve index.

You can also manually add content to the index. You can be an administrator, but also non-admin users can add to an index.

  • You can manually add the content in a component, but ONLY from the Selected Component's panel by selecting the Update AI index option.
  • You can only select from the indices that an Administrator has created. For example, if your admin only created an index for approvals, you only see Approve in the list of options.
  • Add content to an AI index from selected components

Maintaining data in the index is easy!

  • Whenever you update and submit a component, Inspire automatically updates the content in the index.
  • If you're using an index for approvals, when you unapprove a component, the content remains in the Approve index. However, after you make your changes and approve it again, the old content is replaced with the newly approved content.
  • Inspire users can manually Delete content from an AI Index.
  • If you want to remove all the content and start again, admins can Delete an AI index.

After adding data to the AI indices, authors can open a component in the Oxygen editor to ask the AI Assistant questions.

If you are creating your own chat bot and want to search the content you've added to the Inspire AI indices, you can use the ID numbers. Administrators can go to the Administration module to open the AI configuration management screen and copy the AI index identifier that developers would need to reference.
