Important details
Access Guard ™️
ChartHop AI will only use information that you have access to based on your access role and permissions. This security feature is called Access Guard. Unlike AI capabilities on other platforms that use AI itself to determine what you have access to, ChartHop's Access Guard uses the users own access filter for the AI to retrieve answers and update data. If the user doesn't have access, the AI doesn't either. This removes the need for AI to determine what it should or shouldn't allow for each user and instead is limited or enabled on behalf of each user and their access role and permissions.
- For example, if you asked: "What is the average age of the employees?" but don't have access to anyone's birthday other than your own it will answer with something like: "I apologize, but it seems that the age data is not available for most employees in the system. Only one employee's age is shown in the results, which is not enough to calculate an accurate average age for the entire company."
Data Security & Training
Our AI model does not export any of your organization's data or any employee's data.
Your organizations data is not used to train or improve the AI model.
If you have questions about ChartHop's secure and mindful approach to AI see our AI Usage PolicyAI Usage Policy.
Accuracy and Hallucinations
AI models like the one used by Ask ChartHop can at times hallucinate and produce inaccurate information in responses.
We have put in guardrails and training to improve the accuracy and reduce any hallucination.
It's important for you to review and verify any responses that you receive. This is one of the reasons that Ask ChartHop will often pull up a data sheet so that you can verify the information.
There are a few steps that you can take to improve the accuracy of your responses:
- Ensure all of your Creating custom fieldsCreating custom fields are intuitively named and also include descriptive descriptions such as "Performance Rating 2024 - Contains the rating an employee received as part of their annual performance review process conducted in August of 2024."
- FieldsFields that are not in use at your organization.
Observability
Any questions you ask ChartHop AI can be reviewed by the ChartHop team for QA purposes. Admins at your organization can see the category / theme of the questions you ask.
Pricing
ChartHop AI is part of core ChartHop capabilities and can be enabled or disabled. AI Pro is an additional module that extends AI capabilities and is priced as an add-on.
