Jack.SQ: How are you using AI❓
Are you considering broader use of AI in your solution?
This sounds great. Allow AI usage with possibility for BYOK .. like create docx/xlsx templates from scratch using AI.
🤔
Maybe a place to connect your own model, e.g. OpenAI API?
Yeah, support for OpenAI compatible API - using Base URI would be cool! This would allow us to use OpenRouter/Ollama/LM Studio proxy 🔥
For document creation, it would be more impactful if Documentero offers solid remote MCP servers to users. Then you can use any UI Framework Client with MCP and BYOK to generate documents via Workflow (agents) or Chat interface (prompt and context).
if you do add AI again I would want a toggle to switch off, personally I dont want to share my business or client data with AI and would prefer privacy over AI that reads all my data.
@Sandyltd You could opt for your own local instance via Base URI. Nowadays, you can download LLMs locally. No need to opt for analytics/telemetry at all ✌
I totally agree with Martin. There are plenty of open-source UI Frameworks that work with local LLMs for 100% privacy control. By the way, MCP server is not AI, it is only a gate (allowing a Chat Client or Agent to use a tool, API in this case).
With all due respect, I don't see the point of using Documentero without levering the productivity power of the API and it goes the same about MCP server.
+1 dont want to share business + client data with AI in this tool
Documentero works without AI and without transmitting operational data. AI can be optionally used as a helper for data preparation, but only if you consciously choose to use it within the app interface
