New Features: AI Event Creation

New Features: AI Event Creation

We're excited to announce that our AI capability within the tool has been expanded, with an ever growing list of features.
We continue to make AI a focus of our roadmap, seeking to make your day-to-day activities easier to manage, improving adoption and adding dynamic analysis.

The Current Functionality

The AI Assistant can be found within the header bar of any Sourcing page:


On click a chat window will appear where you can ask the embedded AI (Gemini) any question you like!



Our latest iteration adds the ability for the assistant to create events for you.
Should you prompt it to, the event structure can be completely customised, and then it is possible to go on and define contained simple lot data for RFQ and auction type events.
The assistant will guide you through this process step-by-step, or use it's own recommendation based on how you wish to interact with it.

Additionally, the assistant is capable of digesting documents, providing information on the contents, before then going on to create events with this should you wish.

The AI assistant is powered by the Gemini AI interface and tailored with knowledge of the Market Dojo Sourcing environment.
It can also draw on the wider internet to provide context and insights.

At this stage, the assistant does not have access to your data; but we will explore this in the future to aid with single event and tool data meta-analysis.
As such, we’ve updated our Terms to reflect new and upcoming AI-powered features. These enhancements follow our commitment to responsible AI use — ensuring transparency, accuracy, and control for users.

What's Next?

We continue to build additional functionality into the AI Assistant so that it can provide the most value possible.
Our roadmap includes a range of features designed to bring innovative AI features into everyday use for procurement professionals.
Below are some of the practical applications we’re prioritising to improve productivity, actionable insights and performance:
  1. Access to our Knowledge Base article repository
  2. Further event creation elements; advanced lot structures, questionnaires
  3. Updating of existing events, recommendations before go-live
  4. Analysis of an individual completed event
  5. Analysis of trends and statistics across multiple events
  6. Suggesting tender approaches based on line items and supplier count
  7. Identifying anomalous bids and prompting review
  8. Tracking trends for products and adjusting qualification prices
But we are also keen to hear your suggestions; so please reach out to your account manager or our product team with your ideas!
