# AI Assistant

Dastra's AI Assistant lets you generate and enrich workspace elements from simple text descriptions. It relies on generative AI models hosted on Azure, in France and the European Economic Area, without any data from your organisation being used to train those models.

The AI Assistant is available on all Dastra workspaces. If you wish to disable it for your organisation, contact our support team.

### AI as a starting point, not a final answer

The AI Assistant is designed to **accelerate your compliance work**, not to replace human expertise. All content generated by the assistant — whether a processing description, a privacy notice, or a compliance analysis — is **a proposal that requires review and validation** by a qualified person before use.

In particular:

{% hint style="warning" %}
**AI-generated content does not constitute legal advice.** It cannot substitute for the judgement of a data protection professional or legal counsel.

**Compliance assessments are analytical aids.** Scores and recommendations produced by the AI are based solely on information recorded in your workspace. They reflect the quality of that documentation, not an independent legal opinion.

**You remain in control.** No AI-generated result is applied or communicated automatically. Every result requires a deliberate human action to be used.
{% endhint %}

### Data protection and confidentiality

Your organisation's data is never used to train AI models. The models used by Dastra are hosted on Microsoft Azure infrastructure in France, under contractual guarantees that exclude your data from any training or sharing with third parties. For full details, see [How it works](/en/features/generalites/ai-assistant/ai-assistant-how-it-works.md).

### What the AI Assistant can help you with

The assistant is available across several modules of the platform:

* **Processing activities**: generate descriptions, datasets, security measures, privacy notices, and compliance analyses
* **AI systems**: generate descriptions, notices, and risk analyses
* **Questionnaires**: generate AI-assisted responses to DPIAs and risk analyses
* **Data subject rights requests**: draft responses in multiple languages and registers
* **Assets and actors**: generate structured entries from a URL or free description
* **Contracts**: extract metadata from an imported document
* **Custom documents and reports**: generate content from your own instructions

For a step-by-step guide to each feature, see [Use cases](/en/features/generalites/ai-assistant/ai-assistant-use-cases.md).

### Beta features

Some AI features are released in beta: they are operational but continue to be refined based on user feedback. Beta features are clearly identified in the interface.

When using a beta feature:

* Results may be less consistent than in stable features and should be treated with extra care
* The underlying prompts and criteria are actively being improved — results may evolve between versions
* Feedback is welcome and helps Dastra improve the feature. Use the feedback option available in the interface

{% hint style="warning" %}
Beta features should never be the sole basis for a compliance decision. They are designed to support thorough human review, not replace it.
{% endhint %}

**Currently in beta**: processing activity compliance analysis and AI system compliance analysis.
