# About AI Assistant

This article describes the role of the AI Assistant and typical use cases. The AI Assistant carries out a wide range of tasks through conversation, drawing on the resources registered in the workspace.

## Ask questions about your workspace

The AI Assistant helps you understand your workspace in ways such as the following.

* Reviewing the contents of specifications and designs
* Asking about the structure and implementation of the codebase
* Pulling key points together across related documents

For details, see [Chat](/ai-assistant/chat.md).

## Draft documents

Through a conversation with the AI Assistant, you can draft and refine documents such as the following.

* Feature specifications
* Requirements summaries
* User stories
* Test cases
* Help pages

## When to use the AI Assistant vs. workflows

In addition to the AI Assistant, you can also use AI agents in Workflows. A common pattern is to first work with the AI Assistant in a conversational way to understand your workspace and explore tasks and deliverables, and then turn the tasks whose steps and direction have stabilized into a workflow.

For details, see [About Workflow](/workflow/workflow-overview.md).
