AI Assistant

A chat pane inside Word that can answer questions about your document and make edits for you - inserting text, rewriting sections, building tables, generating images, fixing grammar, or translating - all in plain language.

When to use it

  • Drafting a new section, summary, or executive memo from a prompt.
  • Rewriting, shortening, or changing the tone of selected paragraphs.
  • Fixing grammar across a whole document or selected passage.
  • Translating the document - or just a section - into another language.
  • Generating an image and inserting it directly into the document.
  • Running multi-step formatting changes you'd rather not click through by hand.

What's inside

Grammar correction

Ask the assistant to fix grammar, smooth tone, or tighten wording. It opens a side-by-side comparison view so you can see the original next to the suggested edit before accepting. Apply with one click, or pick and choose individual changes.

  • Side-by-side before/after view.
  • Accept all changes or apply one at a time.
  • Works on selected text or the whole document.

Translation

Translate selected text or the entire document into any major language. Just like grammar, the assistant shows the original and the translation side by side so you can review before swapping it in. Useful for international leases, multilingual reports, or quick reference.

  • Any language - major Latin, Asian, and right-to-left scripts.
  • Selection-only or whole-document modes.
  • Preserves formatting, headings, and lists.

Image generation

Describe an image and the assistant generates it and inserts it where your cursor is. Good for cover slides, section dividers, or simple diagrams when you don't want to leave Word to find one. Pick the aspect ratio and style in the prompt.

  • Inserted at the cursor, sized to fit the page.
  • Specify aspect ratio and style in plain English.
  • Replace or delete like any other inline image.

How it works

  1. 1
    Click SkySuite on the ribbon to open the AI Assistant pane.
  2. 2
    Type your request in plain English (for example, *summarize the lease section in three bullets*).
  3. 3
    Optionally select text in the document first so the assistant focuses on that passage.
  4. 4
    Press Enter to send. The assistant inspects your document and proposes an action.
  5. 5
    Review the response in the pane - document edits happen in place and remain undoable.
  6. 6
    Continue the conversation to refine, or start a new chat with the + button.

Tips & shortcuts

  • Press Ctrl+Z to roll back any AI edit, just like any other Word change.
  • The AI works on the active document only - it doesn't read other open files unless you paste content in.
  • Use the Navigate tab in the same pane to jump between headings while you chat.
