Document templates

Customize a document type's headings and per-section AI guidance, and create your own types, within your plan's caps.

Each document type in your workspace is a template: a set of sections, each with a heading and guidance that tells the AI what that section should contain. On paid plans you can edit these templates and create your own types.

Editing templates and creating types is available on paid plans (Pro, Team, and Consultant). On a Free workspace templates are read-only: you can still generate from the built-in types, but the editor controls are hidden. Open the templates editor from Templates in the sidebar.

What you can change

For any document type you can edit:

  • Section headings. Rename, reorder, add, or remove the sections a document is built from.
  • Per-section guidance. Each section carries a note telling the AI what to write there. Sharpen it to match how your team writes that document. Guidance can be up to 1,500 characters per section, and a type can have up to 50 sections.

When you generate a document of that type, ForceVue follows your edited structure and guidance.

Creating custom types

You can also create entirely new document types with their own sections and guidance, for document formats your team uses that are not in the built-in fourteen.

The Decision Log type

One of the built-in types is the Decision Log. It synthesises an initiative's recorded decisions into a single structured log: a summary, an index of every decision, the decisions themselves, and the triggers that would warrant reopening them. The date and owner of each decision come from when and who recorded it. Record decisions with the Decision context label, then generate a Decision Log to bring them together.

The Risk Register type

Another built-in type is the Risk Register. It synthesises an initiative's recorded risk and expectation entries, decisions, goals, and delivery signals into a single structured register: a summary, an index of every entry, the entries themselves with their impact and ask, the evidence behind them, and a watchlist of revisit triggers. The date and owner of each entry come from when and who recorded it. Record entries with the Risk context label, then generate a register to bring them together. See Risk Register.
