# Use AI Assistants to speed up your workflows

> Access pre-built AI Assistants for writing, project management, and more — or build your own — without leaving the app you're already working in.

AI tools are most useful when they're close to the work, not in a separate chat window you have to copy and paste into. Floutwork's **AI Hub** puts a library of purpose-built assistants directly alongside the apps you use every day — Jira, Slack, Gmail, Google Docs, and more. Pick the assistant that matches what you're doing, run it in context, and keep moving.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the AI Hub">
    Click **AI Hub** in the left sidebar. The hub opens as a panel next to your current browser view. Your open tabs stay in place — the assistant works alongside whatever app you have open, not instead of it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Browse the pre-built assistants">
    The **AI Hub** includes assistants organized by category. Some of the most commonly used ones:

    | Assistant                    | What it does                                                                    |
    | ---------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
    | **Jira Ticket Creator**      | Drafts a structured Jira issue from requirements, notes, or a brief description |
    | **UI Copy Writer**           | Generates clear, concise interface copy for buttons, labels, and error states   |
    | **Social Media Post Writer** | Turns notes or long-form content into ready-to-publish posts                    |
    | **Commit Message Helper**    | Writes conventional commit messages from a diff or change description           |

    Additional categories include Meetings & Agendas, Strategy & Planning, Writing & Editing, Marketing, Operations & Processes, and Real-time Collaboration.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select an assistant for your current task">
    Click an assistant to open it. The assistant is aware of your current context — the page you have open, the content visible in your browser — so its output is grounded in what you're actually working on rather than a blank prompt.

    <Note>
      Assistants use the context from your current tabs to make their output relevant. For example, if you have a requirements document open, the **Jira Ticket Creator** can read that page and draft a ticket directly from it.
    </Note>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Use the assistant from within your web app">
    You don't need to leave Jira, Slack, your email, or your doc to use an assistant. Run it from the panel, review the output, and paste or apply it directly in the app next to it.

    **Example — creating a Jira ticket from a requirements doc:**

    1. Open your requirements document in Floutwork.
    2. Open **AI Hub** and select **Jira Ticket Creator**.
    3. The assistant reads the page and drafts a ticket with a title, description, and acceptance criteria.
    4. Copy the output into Jira, or let the assistant create the ticket directly.

    **Example — writing a LinkedIn post from your notes:**

    1. Open your notes in Floutwork.
    2. Select **Social Media Post Writer** from the **AI Hub**.
    3. Paste or point to the notes you want to use.
    4. Review the drafted post and publish.

    <Tip>
      Pin the assistants you use every day to the top of the **AI Hub** for one-click access. You won't need to scroll through categories each time.
    </Tip>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create a custom assistant for your specific workflow">
    If none of the pre-built assistants match your workflow exactly, you can build your own:

    1. In the **AI Hub**, select **Create assistant**.
    2. Give it a name and describe what it should do.
    3. Optionally add instructions, context, or a prompt template.
    4. Save and use it alongside your other assistants.

    Custom assistants are useful for recurring tasks that are specific to your team, your tools, or your way of working — things a generic assistant won't handle well out of the box.
