When utilizing KAI, Katana's AI assistant, to create sales orders (SOs) or generate insights, it's essential to understand how your data is handled, the privacy measures in place, and the limitations of the AI.


Data handling and privacy

  • Powered by OpenAI: KAI leverages AI models developed by OpenAI to process and interpret natural language from emails, facilitating the generation of accurate SOs.

  • Data security: All data is processed securely within Katana's systems and is not shared with OpenAI or any third parties for model training purposes.

  • Data minimization: Only the data necessary to perform the requested task is utilized, and it isn't stored longer than needed.

  • Third-party tools for charts: When generating charts, KAI employs trusted third-party tools. Any data used is handled in compliance with Katana's data protection policies.


Data processing

  • Email content: When you paste email data into KAI, the content is processed in real-time to extract SO information. This content isn't stored after the processing activity.

  • Sales data: Sales summaries and charts are generated using existing sales data within Katana. This data remains within Katana's secure environment during processing.


AI limitations

  • Accuracy: While KAI is designed for accuracy, AI-generated outputs may not always be perfect. It's recommended to review all AI-generated SOs and summaries for accuracy before finalizing actions.

  • User responsibility: Users are responsible for verifying the information provided by KAI to ensure it meets specific needs and compliance requirements.

Feedback is crucial in helping improve KAI's functionality. Please share any issues or suggestions you have.
