Document Assembly

Create professional documents from templates using Muin's AI-powered interview workflow, section-by-section generation, and collaborative review.

Document Assembly turns document creation from a blank-page struggle into a guided, AI-assisted process. Choose a document type, answer interview questions, and Muin generates polished sections that you review and refine before exporting the final result.

How Document Assembly Works

Every assembly project follows a structured pipeline:

Choose Type → Interview → Generate Sections → Review & Feedback → Approve → Export
PhaseWhat Happens
Choose TypePick from available document types (e.g., policy, proposal, report)
InterviewAnswer guided questions so the AI understands your needs
GenerateAI drafts each section based on your answers and the template
ReviewRead generated content, request changes, provide feedback
ApproveMark each section as approved when it meets your standards
ExportDownload the finished document in your preferred format

Getting Started

Creating a New Project

  1. Navigate to Document Assembly in the main navigation
  2. Click New Project
  3. Select a document type from the available templates
  4. Enter a project name and any initial notes
  5. The interview phase begins automatically

Choosing the Right Document Type

Muin provides multiple document types, each with pre-defined sections and interview questions tailored to that format. Browse the type catalog to see:

  • Display name and description for each type
  • Section list showing what the final document will contain
  • Required vs. optional sections so you know the minimum scope
  • Dependencies between sections (some sections need others completed first)

The Interview Phase

The interview is a structured Q&A that collects the information the AI needs to generate high-quality content.

How Interviews Work

  1. Muin presents questions one at a time or in logical groups
  2. Answer each question with the relevant details
  3. Progress is tracked so you can pause and resume at any time
  4. Once all required questions are answered, the interview is complete

Interview Tips

  • Be specific: “Reduce operational costs by 15% through automation” is better than “save money”
  • Provide context: Mention your industry, audience, or regulatory requirements
  • Use examples: If the question asks about goals, list concrete outcomes
  • Review progress: Check the progress indicator to see how far along you are

Generating Sections

Once the interview is complete, you can generate sections individually or in batch.

Single Section Generation

  1. Open a section from the project detail view
  2. Click Generate to create AI-drafted content
  3. The section status updates as generation completes

Batch Generation

For efficiency, generate multiple sections at once:

  1. Select the sections you want to generate
  2. Click Generate Selected or Generate All
  3. Muin processes each section using your interview answers and template structure
  4. Monitor status as each section completes

Section Dependencies

Some sections depend on others. For example, an executive summary might need the body sections generated first. Muin respects these dependencies and prompts you to generate prerequisite sections before dependent ones.

Reviewing and Refining Content

Providing Feedback

After a section is generated, review the content and provide feedback:

  1. Read through the generated text carefully
  2. If changes are needed, click Give Feedback
  3. Describe what should change: tone, length, missing details, corrections
  4. Muin regenerates the section incorporating your feedback
  5. Repeat until the content meets your requirements

Approving Sections

When a section is ready:

  1. Click Approve on the section
  2. Approved sections are locked from further generation (but can be unlocked if needed)
  3. Once all required sections are approved, the project is ready for export

Exporting Your Document

Export Options

When all sections are approved:

  1. Click Export on the project
  2. Choose your preferred format (PDF, DOCX, or other supported formats)
  3. The export is generated and available for download

Export History

Every export is saved in the project’s export history so you can:

  • Download previous versions of the document
  • Track when exports were created and by whom
  • Compare different versions if the document was revised

Additional Workflows

Collaborative Review

Multiple team members can work on the same project:

  • One person completes the interview while another reviews generated sections
  • Feedback from different reviewers is consolidated
  • Section approval can be restricted to specific roles

Iterative Refinement

Document Assembly supports multiple rounds of feedback on each section. If the first generation is not quite right, provide targeted feedback and regenerate. The AI improves with each iteration based on your corrections.

Resuming Work

Projects save automatically. Return to any in-progress project from the Document Assembly list to pick up where you left off. Interview answers, generated sections, and feedback are all preserved.

Tips

  1. Complete the interview thoroughly before generating sections. Better answers produce better first drafts.
  2. Generate sections in order when dependencies exist. The AI uses earlier sections as context for later ones.
  3. Use specific feedback instead of vague requests. “Add a paragraph about data privacy compliance” is more effective than “make it longer.”
  4. Batch generate when possible to save time, then review all sections together for consistency.
  5. Export early, export often. Use the export history to compare versions as you refine.
