What the AI assistant asks first and never does
The assistant acts only within your permissions, asks before anything significant, and leaves every signature and sign-off to people.
In a regulated lab, people stay accountable for decisions. The assistant is built around that: it works within your own permissions, checks with you before anything significant, and leaves signatures to people.
Things it simply does
The assistant goes ahead with looking things up and with small, easily undone changes:
- your profile, notes and tasks
- plan updates and assignments
- template text and draft SOP edits
- adding a document to the knowledge base
Things it asks you to confirm
The assistant asks before:
- archiving, restoring or deleting anything
- sending email, invitations or reminders
- generating a report or PDF
- creating two or more records at once (one confirmation covers the batch)
- saving manufacturer claims
- changing who signs an SOP, which also needs your reason
- replacing data that is already saved
- changing inventory stock
Data entry follows the same rules as the "Submit" button: the assistant will not save an incomplete study design or a partly filled data grid, even if asked.
Things it never does
A person always does these in the app, never the assistant:
- signing anything: plans, reports, SOPs, training authorizations, or any "Finalize & Sign"
- finalizing or revoking a module or composite report
- marking an analyte live for patient testing
- importing, submitting, approving, rejecting, withdrawing, archiving or revising SOPs
- archiving or revising training modules, or completing a trainee's steps
- changing seats, your name or email, or drawing your signature
When work is already finalized, the assistant tells you to revoke it in the app first rather than working around it.
Inside your permissions
The assistant never does more than you could do yourself. Your organization can narrow it further, area by area; see AI access and credits. It does not claim that anything meets CAP or other accreditation requirements; people review and approve the evidence.
