cscope Enterprise AI User Information

Getting started with the secure AI solution for your business

 

Welcome to cscope Enterprise AI.
This guide has been designed specifically with beginners in mind, providing step-by-step instructions on how to use Cscope's artificial intelligence. Even if you have no prior experience with AI systems, don't worry – we'll walk you through all the key features.

Getting started: How to sign up

Access to the System

You can access cscope Enterprise AI through your web browser using the URL you received via email. You don't need any special software—a modern browser like Chrome, Firefox, or Safari is all you need.

To log in, use your email address and the password provided by cscope. You cannot register on your own at this time—you will receive your login credentials directly from the cscope team.

What can you expect?

The user interface resembles the well-known ChatGPT and is designed to be very intuitive. The system is based on royalty-free open-source software. A major advantage: All AI-generated responses are not subject to copyright and can be used freely—even for commercial purposes.

Understanding the User Interface

After logging in, you will see a clear and organised chat interface. In the centre of the main workspace, you can see your conversation with the AI, along with the input field for your questions and instructions. In the bottom right corner, you can choose from different AI models, each of which is optimised for specific tasks. The model you select significantly impacts the AI’s response time and the quality of its answers. Experiment to find out which model works best for your current task.

Unlike many other cloud-based AI solutions, you have the freedom to choose from the available AI models in your setup. You can also test multiple models simultaneously. To do this, select multiple models using the comparison icon to receive different responses simultaneously. You can disable the comparison feature by deselecting individual models.

Once you have submitted the prompt, the responses from the selected models will be displayed side by side. You can then click on one of the responses to select a model for follow-up questions, for example.
The 'Universal Assistant' model is a highly versatile model that is well-suited to most tasks. The other models offered, on the other hand, are specialised for specific tasks. Experiment to see which model works best for you.

An Overview of the Main Models

Universal-Assistent

The ideal model for high-quality, quick answers in everyday life. Perfect for:

  • Information Research and Analysis
  • Content Creation
  • Document Analysis
  • Calculations 

Response time: Very fast (seconds)

Superbrain

The premium model for complex tasks. Ideal for:

  • Detailed Text Analyses
  • Solutions to Complex Problems
  • High-quality voice transmission
  • Structured Arguments

Response time: Slightly slower than "Universal Assistant"

Universal-Assistent:deep-reasoning

The ideal model for particularly well-thought-out and well-researched answers. Perfect for:

  • Solving Difficult Problems
  • Comparison of Options
  • Problems to be Solved in Multiple Steps

Response time: Reasonable

deep-reasoning (slow)

Our experimental model for in-depth research and solving complex problems:

  • Researches assignments using anonymized internet searches
  • Verify any findings before formulating answers
  • Particularly precise execution of prompts

Response time: The process of generating an answer may take several minutes. Occasionally, the message "Thinking..." will appear during this process. Click on the triangle to follow the AI's thought process.

Additional models may be available for your setup. If you would like to use a specialised, pre-trained model for a particular task, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Using the 'Superbrain' model correctly

If you need high-quality language and well-thought-out, well-structured answers, the Superbrain model is your best choice. Unlike the Universal Assistant, the Superbrain deliberately takes time to 'think' – sometimes for several minutes – and considers various possible solutions before presenting the best answer.

What Superbrain does especially well:

  • Developing Complex Lines of Reasoning
  • Write high-quality, stylistically polished texts
  • Analyzing and Solving Logical Problems
  • Create detailed analyses
  • Addressing Multilayered Issues

Take advantage of the smart features of enterprise AI.

The cscope Enterprise AI provides fine-grained control over its functions. Customise the features to suit your specific needs.

Click the + icon to access the menu where you can add any external information related to your request, such as documents.

These documents will never leave the Enterprise AI server.

Training Enterprise AI using additional local knowledge.

You can customise the cscope Enterprise AI to suit your specific needs by leveraging its built-in knowledge, its ability to search the internet and the additional information that is permanently stored. This knowledge is stored on the server and can be used to inform all future queries. The data never leaves the Enterprise AI server!

To add information about Enterprise AI, select 'Workspace' in the left-hand sidebar, then select 'Knowledge'. Click the 'Create' button to create one or more collections containing your documents. Each collection must be given a name. You can upload Office files and PDFs, as well as files in other formats in some cases.

You can restrict access to this local knowledge to specific individuals or groups using finely tuned access permissions. Of course, individual documents or even entire knowledge collections can be deleted at any time.

When asking a question, you can incorporate or 'retrieve' knowledge by typing # in the prompt window and then selecting from the available collections or individual documents. Alternatively, click '+' and then 'Attach Knowledge'.

rEnterprise AI features for optimizing Responses

You can edit the Enterprise AI's responses before copying them, copy them, or rate them. You can also use the 'Regenerate Response' feature to request changes, ask the AI for a new response or shorter/longer versions of the response.

The suggested follow-up questions often offer interesting additional insights into your topic.

Communicating successfully with AI: The art of prompting

The quality of AI responses largely depends on how precisely and in detail you phrase your questions. A good 'prompt' – that's what the instruction to the AI is called – is the key to excellent results. Here are the most important basic rules:

One chat, one topic

Address only one issue per chat. Follow-up questions to explore a topic further or clarify details within the same subject are encouraged and lead to better results. The AI "remembers" the conversation so far.

C

New topic >> New chat

To switch to a completely new topic, click 'New Chat'. This is the only way to make the AI "forget" the previous context and focus entirely on the new task.

C

Create detailed prompts

The more detailed your instructions are, the better the answers you will receive. Describe exactly what you need and don't leave out any details!

The four pillars of a perfect prompt

1. Define the perspective

Specify the role from which the AI should respond:

  • "Answer as a specialist attorney in contract law"
  • "Write from the perspective of a marketing expert"
  • "Express this from a scientific perspective"

2. Determine the level of detail

Please specify how detailed you would like the answer to be:

  • "Write a text of about 500 words"
  • "Sum it up in three bullet points"
  • "Create a detailed table"

3. Specify the purpose of the use

Explain why you need the result:

  • "Compose a formal email response"
  • "Write a speech for a presentation"
  • "Write an informative blog post"

4. Describe the target audience

Who is this answer intended for?

  • "Explain it to a ten-year-old girl"
  • "Phrase it in a way that experts in the field can understand"
  • "Write for executives without a technical background"

"The more precise your instructions are, the better the AI can meet your expectations. Take the time to craft a well-thought-out prompt – it's worth it!"

Practical example:

Weniger guter Prompt

Write something about climate change

That's too vague; the AI doesn't know exactly what you need.

Ausgezeichneter Prompt

Write an informative essay about the effects of climate change on agriculture in Germany. Address the essay to farmers without a scientific background and write from the perspective of an environmental scientist. Use about 400 words. Explain complex concepts in an understandable way and provide practical examples.

It is clearly structured and contains all the important information about what is expected of the AI.

Here are some practical tips for getting the most out of it:

1

Start new chats more often

If your questions are not related, open a new chat for each one. This will prevent the AI from looking for non-existent connections between your questions.

2

Iteratively Improve Answers

If an answer isn't perfect, ask follow-up questions such as: "Can you elaborate on the second paragraph?" or "Please use more formal language." The AI learns from the feedback.

3

Using Documents Effectively

When uploading documents, provide specific instructions to the AI: For example, "Summarize the key points of the contract, paying special attention to notice periods," is better than simply saying, "Analyze this document."
