Nextcloud Assistant
The Nextcloud Assistant is the AI assistant in Nextcloud Workspace, enabled in every new workspace. It runs on the IONOS CLOUD AI Model Hub, so inference stays on IONOS CLOUD infrastructure rather than reaching a third-party provider.
What the Assistant does
The Nextcloud Assistant groups its core capabilities as follows:
Chat with AI: Hold a conversation with the Assistant.
Work with text: Generate text, write from context, summarize, generate headlines, extract topics, reformulate, change tone, and proofread.
Translate: Translate text between languages, with the source language detected automatically.
Work with images: Generate an image from a description.
What the subscription includes
Use of the Assistant is included in the per-seat price, and carries no separate charge. For how seats are billed, see Nextcloud Workspace Billing.
How the models are selected
IONOS CLOUD provides the models behind the Assistant and maintains them as part of the managed service. For most tasks you can choose which of the available models generates the result, and set a limit on the length of that result. Chat with AI runs on a fixed model. The models on offer may change over time as more capable ones become available.
Integrating your own or a third-party model is unavailable.
Further AI capabilities are planned.
Data handling
Workspace content is never used to train AI models. Because the Assistant runs on the AI Model Hub, the data-handling terms of that service apply to Assistant requests, including processing locations, sub-processors, and security measures. For more information, see AI Model Hub Data Handling.
Turning the Assistant off
A workspace administrator can disable the Nextcloud Assistant, which removes it from the workspace for all users.
