# AI Recipient & Field Detection
|
||
|
||
Documenso can suggest recipients and place fields automatically using Google Vertex AI (Gemini). The feature is optional and only available when your organisation or team has **AI Features** enabled. Documents are processed securely and providers do not retain your data for training.
|
||
|
||
## Requirements
|
||
|
||
- AI Features must be enabled in **Document Preferences** for your organisation or team.
|
||
- The envelope must be in **Draft** status.
|
||
- Helpful rate limits are in place (up to 3 detection requests per minute per IP) to prevent abuse. If you see a “too many requests” message, wait a minute or two and try again.
|
||
|
||
### Enable AI features
|
||
|
||
1. **Organisation settings**:
|
||
|
||
Settings → Document Preferences → **AI Features** → Enabled.
|
||
|
||
_This applies to teams that inherit organisation defaults._
|
||
|
||
2. **Team settings**:
|
||
|
||
Team Settings → Document Preferences → **AI Features** → choose Enabled, Disabled, or Inherit.
|
||
|
||
## Detect recipients
|
||
|
||
Use this to identify who needs to sign or approve.
|
||
|
||
1. Open a draft document/template and go to the **Recipients** panel.
|
||
2. Select the **sparkle** button to start detection. If AI is enabled, uploads launched from the dashboard will open the detector automatically.
|
||
|
||

|
||
|
||
3. Wait for progress to finish, then review the suggested recipients.
|
||
4. Remove any incorrect entries, then **Add recipients** to apply them. Existing recipients and duplicates are preserved.
|
||
|
||
Notes:
|
||
|
||
- Detection is unavailable once an envelope is completed.
|
||
- You can re-run detection if you update the document; each run counts toward the rate limit.
|
||
|
||
## Detect fields
|
||
|
||
Use this to auto-place fields on the pages of a draft.
|
||
|
||
1. Open the envelope editor and switch to the **Fields** tab.
|
||
2. Select **Detect with AI**. Provide optional context (e.g., “Alice is the tenant, Bob is the landlord”) to improve recipient assignment.
|
||
|
||

|
||

|
||
|
||
3. Watch the progress indicators; they update per page and total fields found.
|
||
4. Review the summary and choose **Add fields** to place them in the editor.
|
||
|
||
Notes:
|
||
|
||
- Works only for draft envelopes and teams with AI features enabled.
|
||
- Existing fields are masked during detection to avoid duplicates.
|
||
- Fields are assigned to recipients based on nearby labels and your context message; you can edit them after adding.
|
||
|
||
## Best practices
|
||
|
||
- Keep labels near the intended fields (e.g., “Tenant signature”, “Buyer email”).
|
||
- Provide short context when roles are ambiguous.
|
||
- Always review suggestions before sending; AI assists but does not replace final checks.
