The AI Front Door

The AI Front Door is the assistant built into Unifuse. Open it from the chat bubble in the header or the ask bar on the Orchestration Hub. It answers from your institution’s knowledge base and the Expert Nodes configured for your institution, and it says when it does not know.

The left panel, What this front door knows, lists the live knowledge-base sources and the Expert Nodes that are online. The assistant only answers from those; it does not guess. Student questions return only students in your scope.

Suggested starting points include “How many students are at risk this week?”, “Show me pending document reviews”, “Where do this cycle’s applications come from, by state?” and “Summarize recent campaign performance”. Start a campaign (for roles with manage campaigns) runs a three-question intake that creates a real campaign draft and opens the builder.

An answer can include the steps the assistant took, result cards (a student you can open, or a chart with its source and record count), numbered citations that link to the source, a confidence percentage, and an Abstained badge when the assistant found nothing it could answer from. Anything that looks like code, configuration or credentials is replaced with a refusal.

Your thread is kept on the server per user, survives navigation and reloads, and is cleared when you sign out. New conversation starts afresh.

If your institution has turned on the Voice input module, a microphone appears in the input. The transcription is done by your browser vendor.

Some requests ask the assistant to do something, such as send a nudge to a student. Those actions are governed by trust tiers: the assistant shows what it wants to run and does not run it until the right person says yes. See Approvals and trust tiers.
