The AI Assistant proposes, you decide. Everything it produces is presented as a suggestion for you to review, adjust, or reject. It does not change work items, sheet data, or configuration on your behalf.
Where to find it
The assistant shows up in two places in each product that offers it. In the configuration editor. A sparkle button in the editor toolbar opens a documentation-grounded chat, so an administrator can ask configuration questions without leaving the YAML they are editing. The window is titled after the product you are configuring — ✦ Powersheet AI in Powersheet, ✦ Risksheet AI in Risksheet — and answers are drawn from that product’s documentation, with links to the pages used. In the sheet. Configured actions let the assistant propose content against your Polarion data — for example, suggesting work items you can then apply into a Risksheet sheet. Which actions are offered is up to you: they are defined per project, or globally, under Administration → Nextedy AI → AI Assistant Actions.Use the Admin AI Assistant
Powersheet: open the assistant in the configuration editor, ask questions, and attach the file you are editing as context.

Licensing
The AI Assistant needs its own license, separate from the license for the product it appears in. It is a server-side license, installed once per Polarion server and managed at Administration → Nextedy AI → License. One license covers the assistant across every Nextedy product that offers it — there is no separate license per product. It is installed the same way as any other Nextedy license: drag the license file onto the License page, or place it on the server filesystem. See Installing a License for both routes, including Polarion cluster setups. Within the assistant, one part is not license-gated:
The documentation chat answers only from published documentation and carries no data about your Polarion instance, so it stays available to every installation of the Nextedy AI package. It needs just two things: the package installed on the server, and a signed-in Polarion user.
You do not need your own account with an AI provider, and you do not supply an API key: the assistant talks to the Nextedy AI service, which Nextedy operates.
Evaluation
Until a production license is installed, the License page offers an evaluation of the licensed features for 30 days. The upload procedure is identical for evaluation and production licenses. When an evaluation expires, the licensed AI features stop being offered; the rest of the product is unaffected. For current pricing, a quote, or a custom licensing arrangement, contact info@nextedy.com. For a product-level overview of what Nextedy builds with AI, see nextedy.com.Your data
Nothing about your instance is sent by default. The documentation chat sends your question only, and receives no configuration or work-item data unless you explicitly attach the file you are editing — attachments are opt-in, apply to the questions you ask after attaching them, and can be dismissed at any time. Your content is not used to train shared models. See Security and Privacy for how Nextedy handles product security and customer data generally.Related pages
