The Basics

Writing Assistant

The Writing Assistant offers a little extra help when you're drafting content within the Platform.

With options like Check Spelling and Grammar, Make it Formal, Make it Friendly, Make it Inviting, and Write Content from Keywords, you can decide exactly how much this AI assistant provides.

Example

Picture this: It's the end of the day on Friday, you're tired and about to leave, when the pastor pops in. He asks if you've posted the Opportunity for people to be part of the cleanup crew for the community event next week. Oh no, you forgot! Don't worry, the Writing Assistant is here to save the day (and your time). Quickly draft the content you need with a little help... or a lot of help!

Configuration

By default, the Writing Assistant is available for two fields in the Platform: Group Description and Opportunity Description. An administrator can enable the Writing Assistant for any applicable field: Go to System Setup > Field Management, edit the field record for the relevant page, and set Writing Assistant Enabled to Yes. We recommend limiting this to larger text fields where additional writing assistance may be needed, like description fields.
