AI Administration & Usage Controls

The AI Administration & Usage Controls feature allows administrators to manage the AI engines available within SurveyTester or add a custom AI Engine. AI engines power AI-driven capabilities, such as generating Test Cases from questionnaires. Before any AI features can be used, at least one AI engine must be configured and enabled.

Administrators can control which AI engines are available, set a default engine, assign engines to users, groups, or projects, and monitor AI consumption across the organization.

Use this feature when you need to:

• Control & assign which AI models are available to your organization.

• Monitor AI usage and consumption.

• Establish governance and cost controls for AI-enabled functionality.

Ensure the following permissions are enabled for the appropriate administrative roles:

• Manage Company AI Engines: Allows administrators to create, configure, and maintain AI engines available to the organization.
• View AI Usage: Allows users to review AI usage and consumption statistics.
• Assign AI Engines: Allows users to assign AI engines to projects, users, or groups.

Once enabled, these options can be accessed from:

Administration & Settings → AI Engines

Administration & Settings → AI Usage
