Examples of Context-Aware Responses

Form Completion Context

When browsing templates:User: “I need help choosing a template.”Context-Aware Response: “I can see you’re in the template selection area. Based on your previous reports, you often work with business analysis. For your current needs, I’d recommend the ‘Quarterly Business Review’ template, which includes sections for financial metrics, project updates, and strategic planning. Would you like me to show you how to customize it?”

Report Generation Context

During AI report generation:User: “How long will this take?”Context-Aware Response: “Your report is currently in the analysis phase (step 2 of 4). Based on the complexity of your financial data and the 3 PDF files you uploaded, I estimate another 45-60 seconds. The AI is currently processing your uploaded spreadsheets and integrating the data with your form responses.”
When reviewing generated content:User: “This section doesn’t look right.”Context-Aware Response: “I can see you’re reviewing the ‘Financial Projections’ section of your generated report. This section was based on the Q3 data you uploaded and your growth assumptions. If it seems inaccurate, you can edit it directly or regenerate this section with different parameters. Would you like me to show you how to adjust the AI analysis settings for better results?”
