How do I enable the AI copilot in OptiTech?

Quick answer

An admin enables the copilot under Settings > AI. It's available on the Professional and Enterprise plans, is off by default, and activation shows you the processing terms first: inference runs on EU-hosted models, your data is not used to train anyone's models, and every answer cites its sources. Once enabled, the copilot appears throughout the workspace.

What the copilot does

Answers questions with citations: "Does NIS2 apply to our subsidiary?", "What's missing for ISO 27001 certification?" Answers are grounded in legal texts, MSB regulations, and your own workspace data through retrieval-augmented generation.
Drafts policies adapted to your actual environment, using facts from your integrations rather than generic boilerplate.
Drafts questionnaire answers. Feed it a customer's security questionnaire and it proposes answers from your live control data; see can AI answer security questionnaires.
Summarizes for audiences: an incident timeline into a management summary, or a quarter of findings into a board paragraph.

Everything it produces is a draft pending human review. Nothing the copilot writes auto-publishes, signs, or submits.

The governance answers your DPO will ask for

Enabling an AI feature in a compliance tool rightly triggers scrutiny, so the answers are documented in the activation flow:

Hosting: EU-hosted LLMs; prompts and retrieved context don't leave the EU.
Training: your data is never used for model training.
Scope control: admins can restrict which data the copilot may retrieve from (for example, excluding incident records).
Logging: copilot usage is logged like any other workspace activity.

Add the copilot to your own AI system inventory if you maintain one under the AI Act workflow; it's a limited-risk transparency case, and the platform pre-fills the entry.

If you leave it disabled

Everything else works without it. The copilot accelerates drafting and Q&A, but scoping, monitoring, evidence collection, and reporting are deterministic platform features, not AI features. Enable it when your governance review is done, not before.
