Get ready to streamline your SAFe journey with SAFe CoPilot’s innovative technology.
What Is SAFe CoPilot?
SAFe CoPilot is a large language model (LLM) custom-trained on the latest and exclusive SAFe guidance. It embeds generative artificial intelligence across the SAFe ecosystem, which includes training courses, SAFe Studio, and enterprise applications.
In the words of ChatGPT, “Imagine you have a super smart friend who knows a little bit about everything and can help you with anything you need. This friend is really good at understanding SAFe and generating human language. That’s what SAFe CoPilot is.”
Key SAFe CoPilot Benefits
Like other LLMs, SAFe CoPilot can generate content efficiently based on the information it ingests.
But what sets SAFe CoPilot apart from other LLMs like ChatGPT?
It’s simple: SAFe CoPilot was developed by the same people who bring you SAFe, so it knows SAFe better than any other LLM.
SAFe CoPilot has access to exclusive SAFe® content
SAFe CoPilot has unlimited access to the entire SAFe knowledge base, which ensures it’s providing answers based on the latest SAFe guidance.
The SAFe knowledge base includes:
- Informative blogs: insights from SAFe professionals and industry experts
- Expert-created articles: in-depth guides from renowned SAFe thought leaders
- Interactive courses: immersive learning experiences for hands-on understanding
- Engaging videos: visual explanations of complex SAFe concepts
- E-learning modules: bite-sized training for busy professionals
Plus, SAFe CoPilot’s citation feature provides direct links to the content each answer comes from, giving you the chance to verify the answers you receive and expand your SAFe learning.
SAFe CoPilot’s SAFe-specific prompt library
To ensure you receive quality outputs from LLMs, you have to provide quality inputs. This means your prompts make all the difference. And if you’ve used an LLM before, you probably know it takes trial and error to learn which prompts will produce the answers you’re looking for.
To mitigate time spent on creating quality prompts, SAFe CoPilot provides a library of prompts tailored to specific SAFe roles and scenarios. Whether you’re a Release Train Engineer, Scrum Master, Product Owner, or any other SAFe professional, SAFe CoPilot provides targeted guidance and solutions for your unique challenges.
We include examples of these prompts later in this blog.
