Workspace

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

1. Select a project — choose the target project from the folder dropdown (bottom-left of the input)
2. Describe your document — type a prompt like “Create a business proposal with executive summary, problem statement, solution, and pricing”
3. Choose a writing style — select from Professional, Academic, Casual, or Technical
4. (Optional) Attach files — attach up to 3 files (PDF, DOCX, images, CSV, etc. — max 20 MB each) as reference material
5. Click the send button — Autype generates the document and opens it in the editor

​

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.

Organization switcher

If you belong to multiple organizations, use the organization switcher at the top of the workspace to switch between them. Each organization has its own projects, documents, settings, and subscription. Your role (Owner, Admin, Member) is displayed next to each organization name.
