The Rock Suggester is an AI-powered feature that helps you generate creative and relevant rock ideas for your team based on your business context, personal preferences, and organizational goals. This intelligent tool provides personalized suggestions to give you that extra creative boost when planning your team's rocks.

Here's a short demo to see Strety's AI Rock Generator in action

What is Rock Suggester?

Rock Suggester uses artificial intelligence to analyze your business context and generate tailored rock suggestions that align with your team's objectives and priorities. Instead of starting from scratch, you can leverage AI to spark creative ideas that are relevant to your specific situation.


How Rock Suggester Works

The Rock Suggester analyzes various data points you have access to within Strety to generate contextually relevant suggestions based on your business context, personal preferences, and organizational goals.

What Context Is Used?

Rock Suggester can use the following context to generate personalized suggestions:

  • Company V/TO™ & Annual Goals: Your organization's vision, traction objectives, and yearly goals (available only if you have access to the V/TO)

  • Company Rocks: Existing rocks from across your organization

  • Short Term Issues (last 60 days): Recent issues and challenges from your team

  • Open Long Term Issues (last 365 days): Ongoing strategic issues and opportunities from your team

  • Your Company Seats & Responsibilities: Your specific role, accountabilities, and seat responsibilities

  • Instructions: Optional open-ended text (maximum 300 characters) that you can use to add your preferences, focus, or specific guidance for the AI suggestions

You can control which of these context types the AI uses when generating suggestions, allowing you to customize the relevance and focus of the recommendations.


Enabling Rock Suggestor for Your Organization

Note: Only Account Owners have access to AI Settings to enable (or disable) Strety AI

  1. Navigate to Adminland

  2. Select AI Settings

  3. Toggle AI Enabled to On

  4. Click Save Changes

Once enabled, all users in your organization will have access to Rock Suggester when creating new rocks.

Using Rock Suggester

  1. Create a New Rock: Start the rock creation process as usual

  2. Access AI Rock Suggestions: Look for the "Get AI Rock Suggestions" button in the dropdown.

  3. Review Context: The AI will use your available business context to generate relevant suggestions

    1. We highly recommend inputting specific instructions for your prompt. The more specific detail the better

  4. Select: Choose from the generated suggestions to generate a new rock using the suggestion title & description.

  5. Refine: Edit and customize the suggested rocks to fit your specific needs.

Tips for Better Suggestions

  • Provide Clear Context: The more context available in your Strety workspace, the better the suggestions

  • Use Specific Goals: Having well-defined objectives helps generate more targeted rock ideas

  • Iterate: Don't hesitate to generate multiple suggestions to find the best fit. Add and remove context to see what fits. Less context could help the AI focus a bit more!

  • Customize: Use suggestions as starting points and adapt them to your unique situation

Security & Privacy

What AI service are you using?

We use OpenRouter (https://openrouter.ai/) to connect to GPT-4o-mini provided by OpenAI to generate rock suggestions. This service processes your prompts to deliver intelligent suggestions tailored to your context.

Can I use my own AI service?

No, you cannot use your own AI service at this time. Rock Suggester is designed to work exclusively with our integrated AI solution to ensure consistent performance and security standards.

What data does the AI have access to?

The AI/LLM does not have any direct access to Strety data and cannot retrieve data on its own. Instead, the AI is provided specific data to generate suggestions via prompts. Our application generates prompts containing only the data points that:

  • You have access to within Strety

  • You have opted to use in suggestion generation

  • Are relevant to rock creation

Specific data is sent to the LLM model, which is then used to generate suggestions. The AI never receives raw database access or uncontrolled data access to your Strety workspace.

Can I turn this feature off to prevent users in my organization from using it?

Yes, you can completely disable all AI-powered features for your organization:

  1. Go to Adminland > AI Settings

  2. Toggle AI Enabled to Off

  3. Click Save Changes

Is my data secure?

Yes, your data security is our top priority:

  • Prompt-Only Access: AI only receives carefully curated prompts, not direct database access

  • Encryption: All data transmission is encrypted during the suggestion generation process

  • Access Control: Only data you have permission to view is included in suggestion prompts

  • Compliance: Our AI integration follows industry-standard security practices

Data Retention

OpenAI Data Retention OpenAI may securely retain API inputs and outputs for up to 30 days to provide services and identify abuse. After 30 days, API inputs and outputs are removed from OpenAI's systems, unless legally required to retain them. For more details, see OpenAI's Enterprise Privacy documentation.

Strety Internal Data Retention Strety stores the input prompts and AI-generated outputs for auditing purposes. This data is deleted upon request or when the user who requested the suggestions is deleted from the system.
