AI Support in Workpages

Some AI-powered capabilities available in SAP Build Work Zone can support content creation and maintenance activities within Workpages. Depending on the system configuration and enabled AI features, these capabilities can be used to assist content creators when creating, updating, and managing Workpage content.

The following example demonstrates how AI-powered capabilities can be used to generate, summarize, and refine content directly within SAP Build Work Zone.

Key AI Capabilities for Workpages

Within Workpages, AI directly improves common content-related tasks:

AI Text Generation: Users can generate content based on simple prompts, such as drafting page sections, creating descriptions, preparing announcements, writing feed posts, or drafting blog content. This helps accelerate content creation and reduces the effort required to start from a blank page.
AI Summarization: AI can generate concise summaries of documents and other content available within workspaces and content areas. This helps users quickly identify important information and key takeaways without reviewing all details.
AI Content Refinement and Enhancement: AI can help improve existing content by suggesting refinements, restructuring text, adjusting wording, or modifying tone. This can support the creation of clear, consistent, and user-friendly content across different Workpages.

These capabilities complement the visual page editor and existing Workpage management features by providing additional support throughout the content creation process. As a result, content creators can focus more on the quality and relevance of information while reducing the effort required to create and maintain engaging Workpage content.
