The workspace is the first screen you see after signing in. It combines AI-powered document creation with project and document management.
AI document generation
At the top of the workspace, you’ll find the AI input field — describe the document you want to create and Autype generates it for you.
How to generate a document
- Select a project — choose the target project from the folder dropdown (bottom-left of the input)
- Describe your document — type a prompt like “Create a business proposal with executive summary, problem statement, solution, and pricing”
- Choose a writing style — select from Professional, Academic, Casual, or Technical
- (Optional) Attach files — attach up to 3 files (PDF, DOCX, images, CSV, etc. — max 20 MB each) as reference material
- Click the send button — Autype generates the document and opens it in the editor
Document generation consumes credits. See Pricing for credit costs. Quick prompts
Below the input field, four prompt cards offer ready-made starting points:
- Business Proposal — executive summary, problem statement, solution, pricing
- Technical Documentation — API overview, authentication, endpoints, examples
- Project Report — introduction, methodology, findings, conclusion
- Project Plan — timeline, milestones, risks, resources
Click any card to fill the input with the prompt text, then customize it before generating.
