Overview

Tag categories are essential for helping the response engine find and use the most relevant content for each RFP. By properly configuring your tag categories, you ensure that responses are accurate, compliant, and tailored to each opportunity.

This guide walks you through configuring tag categories to match your organization's specific needs.

Getting Started

Step 1: Navigate to Settings

  1. Click on Settings in the main navigation

  2. Select Response Engine Settings from the menu

Step 2: Locate Tag Categories

  1. Scroll down to the Tag Categories section

  2. You'll see all your tag categories displayed in individual boxes

  3. Each box contains the current configuration for that category

Configuring Search Strategies

For each tag category, you'll need to configure how the response engine searches and prioritizes content.

Step 3: Choose Your Main Search Strategy

You have two primary approaches:

Option A: Filter by Tags (Stricter Approach)

  • What it does: Excludes content that doesn't meet your matching criteria

  • When to use: When you need strict boundaries between content areas

  • Result: Only content meeting your criteria will be considered

Option B: Prefer Tag Matches (Flexible Approach)

  • What it does: Considers all content but prioritizes better matches

  • When to use: When broader context is acceptable but preferences matter

  • Result: All content is available but ranked by relevance

Step 4: Configure Your Selected Strategy

If you chose "Filter by Tags":

Select a Filter Mode:

  1. Only matching tags

    • Requires content to match project tags exactly

    • No additional tags from this category allowed

    • Use for: Strict compliance requirements, fund-specific content

  2. At least one matching tag

    • Requires at least one tag to match the project scope

    • Content can have additional tags from this category

    • Use for: Product categories, regional content

If you chose "Prefer Tag Matches":

Select an Importance Level:

  1. High

    • Tag matches strongly influence content ranking

    • Mismatches are significantly deprioritized

    • Use for: Critical business categories

  2. Medium

    • Balanced approach to tag matching

    • Moderate impact on content ranking

    • Use for: Standard categories (recommended default)

  3. Low

    • Minimal impact on content ranking

    • Tags are suggestions rather than requirements

    • Use for: Metadata, supplementary categories

Configuring Tag Assignment for New Responses

Step 5: Select Tag Assignment Strategy

Choose how new responses should be tagged:

  1. From the content used

    • Inherits tags from source content that match project settings

    • Best for: Well-tagged content, strict category boundaries

    • Example: Compliance-critical categories

  2. Using AI Auto-tagging

    • AI analyzes response content to suggest appropriate tags

    • Best for: Flexible categories, overlapping content areas

    • Example: Product features that span multiple areas

  3. Manual

    • No automatic tag suggestions

    • Best for: Organizational metadata, internal-only categories

    • Example: Document type indicators

Auto Save

Your settings are automatically saved as you make changes. These configurations will be applied:

  • When creating new projects

  • When regenerating responses in existing projects

  • For all future response generation

Troubleshooting

Responses missing expected content?

  • Check if Filter by Tags is too restrictive

  • Consider switching to Prefer Tag Matches

Responses including irrelevant content?

  • Increase importance level for Prefer Tag Matches

  • Consider switching to Filter by Tags

Auto-tagging suggestions seem wrong?

  • Review your source content tagging

  • Try switching between AI and content-based strategies
