AI ASSISTANT FOR PROJECT DESIGN

Turn specs into project plans & documentation with AI

Use AI to move from messy requirements to architecture, assumptions, decisions, diagrams, and buildable units of work.

Large data integration projects rarely begin with a clean technical brief. They begin with emails, PDFs, sample files, partial requirements, legacy logic, and unanswered questions. The CloverDX AI Assistant helps organize that input into something your team can actually build from: a clear architecture, a decision trail, and a plan broken into reviewable pieces.

Before anyone builds the first graph, the Assistant can help make sense of the work. It reads the material you give it, separates scope from assumptions, and highlights the questions that need a human answer.

That gives architects and leads a better starting point — not a finished decision, but a structured proposal they can review.

Summarize project scope from specs, notes, and files
Identify sources, targets, interfaces, and boundaries
Surface assumptions and missing information
Ask focused clarification questions
Propose a CloverDX project architecture
Break the work into buildable, testable units

Architecture documents often go stale as soon as implementation starts. The Assistant helps keep the reasoning close to the work.

It can document existing projects, explain why parts of the solution are structured the way they are, and keep decisions, plans, and implementation context together.

Generate architecture notes and diagrams
Create a decision log with rationale
Document existing CloverDX projects after the fact
Link implementation units back to design decisions
Help new team members understand the project faster
Preserve context for handover, review, and audit

The Assistant proposes structure. Your team decides.

It can suggest an approach, but it should not silently make load-bearing decisions. Use it to accelerate discovery, planning, and documentation — then review the architecture before implementation moves forward.

Use AI Assistant as architect
when you need to…

Start a project from incomplete requirements
Convert business specs into technical structure
Plan a larger CloverDX implementation
Document a project that already exists
Capture decisions before they disappear into chat
Give developers a clearer build plan

Clover AI Assistant: Frequently asked questions

Here are some questions we've been asked about using the AI Assistant in CloverDX. If you have questions that aren't listed here, we're always happy to answer them - just get in touch.

Which AI providers does the CloverDX AI Assistant support?

The Assistant is bring-your-own-key. You configure your own AI provider account in Designer, with support for Anthropic, OpenAI, Azure OpenAI, and Google. CloverDX does not host the model or sell AI usage credits.

Does CloverDX see or store our prompts, data, or AI responses?

No. CloverDX does not host an AI service and is not in the path of your AI calls. The Assistant connects from the Designer machine to the provider you configure, and your data is shared only with that provider under your own contract and governance rules.

Can the Assistant change my CloverDX projects?

Yes, if you allow it. The Assistant can work in read-write mode to build, edit, test, and document jobs, but you can switch it to read-only mode at any time. Admins can also set the MCP Server to read-only globally, which prevents sandbox changes.

Is the AI Assistant for production use?

During the CloverDX 7.5 tech preview, it is recommended for test and development environments only. The Assistant can read, modify, and run jobs in connected Server projects, so all output should be reviewed before you rely on it.

What do we need to get started?

You need CloverDX Designer and Server 7.5, a CloverDX AI Assistant licence key, your own AI provider API key, outbound network access from Designer to that provider, and a CloverDX Server project. Local projects are not supported. Contact your Account Manager to obtain your license.
