  "markdown": "# AI capacity & control\n\nLast updated: 2026-08-24\n\nUnderstand the monthly AI capacity in AlefOS: analyses read and organize authorized work context; actions prepare supported changes that stay under the user’s control.\n\n## The simple model\n\nAlefOS is designed to help an AI understand the work before it helps someone act.\n\nFirst, AlefOS can read the authorized context around a customer, mission, appointment, call, message or group. It can then help find what matters, explain what happened or prepare the next step.\n\nThat first part is an AI analysis. On plan surfaces, this capacity is shown as AI reads. Internally, it is Loop1.\n\nAn analysis does not send anything, change a record or make a decision for the user.\n\n## AI actions: prepare first, confirm when needed\n\nAn AI action is used when AlefOS prepares a supported change or next step from the available context. Internally, this is Loop2.\n\nFor example, AlefOS may prepare a customer reply, a follow-up mission, an appointment or a booking link when the relevant tool, plan and permissions support it.\n\nThe important distinction is simple:\n\n- An analysis helps understand the work.\n- An action prepares something to happen in the work.\n\nProtected or engaging actions remain drafts until the responsible user reviews and confirms them.\n\n## From question to controlled action\n\nA customer has asked for a revised proposal and wants to meet on Tuesday.\n\n1. The user asks: “What did Marc ask for, and what is still open?”\n2. AlefOS uses the authorized customer context to prepare a readable answer. This is an AI analysis.\n3. The user asks AlefOS to prepare a follow-up or a booking link with the times they want to offer. This can be an AI action when the workflow is supported.\n4. The user reviews the draft and confirms only what should happen.\n\nThe value is not automatic execution. It is moving from the right context to a prepared next step without losing control.\n\n## What an AI action can prepare\n\nAvailable actions depend on the connected tools, plan, configuration and permissions. When supported, AlefOS can help prepare:\n\n- A customer message or follow-up for review.\n- A Mission linked to the customer and the reason behind it.\n- A personal appointment or calendar change for confirmation.\n- A booking link with the availability and supported questions needed for one appointment.\n- A supported ownership, assignment or workflow change in a Team workspace.\n\nAlefOS should never be presented as silently sending every message, changing every record or acting outside the user’s authorized scope.\n\n## What stays under your control\n\nAlefOS does not turn a question into an uncontrolled automation.\n\n- It works only with context that is available and authorized.\n- Permissions still limit what a person or assistant can access.\n- A prepared message, appointment or other engaging action can remain a draft.\n- The responsible user reviews protected actions before execution.\n- An analysis can explain what is missing; it does not invent the missing information.\n\nThe user remains responsible for the decision.

Then prepare. The user remains in control of what happens next.\n\n## Typical questions\n\n- What did this customer ask for on the last call?\n- Which follow-ups are still waiting for me?\n- What should I know before this appointment?\n- Prepare a customer reply for my review.\n- Create a booking link with the times I want to offer.\n- Which actions are ready for confirmation?\n\n## Important notes\n\n- AI analyses use only the AlefOS context available and authorized for the current user or workspace.\n- An AI analysis does not send a message, change a record or execute an external action.\n- Protected or engaging actions remain drafts until the user confirms them and the required permissions apply.\n- Available actions depend on the plan, connected tools, configuration and permissions.\n\n## FAQ\n\n### What is the difference between an AI analysis and an AI action?\n\nAn AI analysis helps AlefOS read, organize or explain authorized work context. An AI action prepares a supported next step, such as a draft message, Mission, appointment or booking link, when the workflow is available.\n\n### Are AI analyses and actions the same as Loop1 and Loop2?\n\nYes.
