What can I ask Copilot?
Background
Copilot is Procore's AI assistant tool. It can help you quickly find information from your project's Submittals, Specifications, and RFIs tools, and answer questions about how to use Procore.
Answer
Copilot leverages the latest generative AI technology, and as such its capabilities are always growing and changing.
Right now, Copilot can answer questions about your project's RFIs, Submittals, Specifications. It can also explain how to do something in Procore, like respond to a submittal, based on information from Procore's Support Site.
You can ask Copilot questions like:
- What is the RFI response for ceiling height?
- What are the installation instructions for external lighting?
- How do I edit a submittal?
- Is the submittal for paint color approved yet?
Copilot can't answer these types of questions yet:
- Quantities/Aggregation of information
Examples:- Can you show me a list of RFIs with something in common (like subject matter, status, or assignee)?
- How many open RFIs are there?
- Affect on other unsupported tool data
Examples:- Can you tell me how this item's status could affect the schedule?
- How does this item's schedule change impact the budget?
- Priority
Examples:- Can you tell me which RFIs are most important to address?
- Which outstanding submittals should I address first?
Copilot can't answer questions based on multimedia project information yet:
Copilot provides the best answers when the relevant information in Procore is explicitly stated in text, either within a field in Procore, or within an attached document.
For example, if the paint color choice that was approved on a submittal is noted in a markup on an image, but not explicitly stated in the submittal response in written text, Copilot won't be able to tell you which paint color was approved. It can't yet consider the text markup in the context of the image the same way we can as humans.
Copilot can answer questions based on the following information:
