Project Context & Prompt Settings

Your project settings directly shape how Axon's AI analyzes documents and extracts intelligence. Getting scope, purpose, and framework right up front means better summaries, more relevant findings, and sharper synthesis — so it's worth spending a moment on these.

How Scope & Purpose Drive AI Behavior

Every time Axon processes an artifact, answers a chat question, or generates a synthesis, it reads your project's scope and purpose to understand what matters to you. These fields are not just labels — they are woven into every AI prompt behind the scenes.

Strategic Scope

The scope tells the AI the boundaries of your initiative — the domain, market, technology area, or organizational context you care about.

When the AI summarizes an artifact, it emphasizes content that falls within your scope and de-prioritizes tangential material. When extracting findings, it filters for relevance within those boundaries.

Example

"EU Green Energy Market, focusing on offshore wind and hydrogen storage."

Purpose / Goal

The purpose tells the AI what you're trying to achieve — the questions you want answered or the outcomes you're working toward.

This shapes which findings the AI prioritizes (risks, opportunities, recommendations), how it frames summaries, and what the Strategic Advisor chat focuses on when answering your questions. During synthesis, it's used to rank and filter the most decision-relevant findings.

Example

"Identify 2nd order risks of new regulations and competitive landscape vulnerabilities."

Where Scope & Purpose Are Used

  • Artifact ingestion — the AI reads your scope and purpose before summarizing each document and extracting findings, so output is grounded in your strategic context.
  • Project Chat — the Strategic Advisor uses scope and purpose to frame answers and prioritize relevant evidence from your knowledge base.
  • Synthesis generation — scope and purpose drive which findings are selected and how the narrative is structured.
  • Findings ranking — during synthesis, findings are semantically ranked against your project context so the most decision-relevant ones surface first.

Tip: If your findings feel too generic, try making your scope narrower or your purpose more specific. You can update these at any time and reprocess existing artifacts.

Frameworks & Prompt Overrides

  • Choose a strategic framework to apply a specific analytical lens (e.g., Three Horizons) to both ingestion and synthesis.
  • Use summary and findings prompt overrides when a project needs custom output beyond what scope, purpose, and framework provide.
  • Reset project prompts to fall back to framework defaults (or system defaults if no framework is selected).

Framework Changes

When a project framework changes, you can reprocess existing artifacts so summaries and findings are regenerated under the new framework lens.

User Settings Tab

Manage Google Drive connection, account actions (password reset, MFA, account deletion), and AI model settings.

Deletion Behavior

Deleting a project removes its artifacts, live docs, and findings. Deleting your account permanently removes all projects and associated data.
