AI Analysis
How accurate is the AI analysis?+−
Our AI is trained on industry-standard 8D, A3, and VDA methodologies. However, AI analysis is an assistive tool - always review and validate results using your engineering expertise. The AI helps identify gaps and suggests improvements, but final decisions should be made by qualified quality engineers.
What data does the AI use for analysis?+−
The AI analyzes only the content you upload in your reports. We do not use your reports to train general-purpose models. All analysis is performed on-demand and your data remains private. See our Privacy Policy for details.
Reports & Data
How do I export reports?+−
Open any report and click the 'Export' button in the top toolbar. You can export as PDF (for printing/sharing) or as a Word document (.docx). Word export includes all 8D sections, attachments, and the fishbone diagram. Word export requires the Starter plan or above.
Can I import existing 8D reports?+−
Yes. When creating a new report, use the multi-document upload to attach source documents. Supported formats: PDF, Word (.docx), Excel (.xlsx, .xls), plain text (.txt), and JSON (.json). The AI will extract content from the uploaded files to populate your 8D report.
What happens if I delete a report?+−
Report deletion is permanent and cannot be undone. Make sure you've exported any reports you want to keep before deleting them.
