AI That Thinks Out Loud: Introducing Configurable Reasoning in AI Workspace

The Problem

In today's workplace, AI is already handling substantial workloads – summarising documents, generating content, and responding to queries. But for many users, the process still feels opaque. You ask a question. You get an answer. But you're often left wondering how that answer was formed.

Our latest upgrade in AI Workspace solves that.

Why Transparency in AI Matters Now

Imagine you're a customer support agent drafting a troubleshooting email. As the AI generates the content, you see its reasoning unfold in real time – from retrieving past ticket history to referencing product documentation. You’re not just receiving an output – you're witnessing the AI's logic.

That's the power of reasoning-capable AI – now transparent and configurable in AI Workspace.

Previously, this lack of visibility created a trust gap. Now, with configurable reasoning steps, AI Workspace allows organisations to control how much of the AI's thought process is revealed – from high-level summaries to detailed, step-by-step reasoning. The result? AI that's more explainable, adaptable, and aligned to your team's context.

What’s New: Key Capabilities

  • Admin Control Over Reasoning Depth – AI admins can customise reasoning visibility across teams and scenarios.
  • Live Reasoning Display – Real-time updates during AI content generation (e.g. “Analysing customer issue”, “Referencing documentation”).
  • Reasoning Traceability – Every output includes a transparent logic chain, aiding audits, training, and debugging.
  • Future-Ready Architecture – Lays the foundation for further explainability and alignment tooling.

Real-World Scenario: Smarter Support Emails

Use case: A customer reports their fridge isn’t cooling. The agent asks AI Workspace to draft a response.

Here’s what unfolds:

  • “Getting customer issue” – Pulls context from historical tickets.
  • “Analysing customer issue” – Identifies root causes (e.g. compressor failure).
  • “Looking for product documentation” – Finds relevant manuals.
  • “Thinking about a response” – Structures a clear message.
  • “Drafting email content” – Outputs a send-ready response.

The result: A message the agent understands – and trusts.

Who It’s Built For

Why It Matters

This upgrade directly addresses three common pain points:

  • Limited Explainability – Previously, users couldn’t see how AI made decisions. Now, each step is visible.
  • Lack of Configurability – Teams need different levels of insight. Now, admins control that.
  • Underused Model Power – Advanced models already supported reasoning – now the platform surfaces it.

In short: you gain clarity, control, and confidence.

The Hidden Time Sink in Assessment Design: Theory vs. Practical Mismatch

Assessment mismatches between theory and practice create hours of rework for training providers. If your team spends hours rewriting assessments to fit the right level - conceptual vs. applied. You’re not alone. The problem? Most tools blur the line between theory and practice. Training providers handling unit and skills standards need clear mode control at the design stage to save time and stay compliant.

From Chaos to Clarity: How Smarter Standard Management Transforms Training Providers

“Where does this standard belong?” If your training organisation has ever lost time manually digging through hundreds or thousands of unit standards, you’re not alone. In high-compliance environments like RTOs and enterprise L&D departments, managing standards isn’t just administrative - it’s strategic. But without a clear way to group and oversee them, organisations face cluttered systems, risk of misaligned training, costly oversight errors and wasted hours on search and scroll. Fortunately, there’s a smarter way forward...
