What is Contextual AI Assistance?

Contextual AI Assistance is WalkMe’s suite of AI capabilities, available inside the flow of work: Pinned AI, Proactive AI, and On-Demand AI. Together, they cover every way users need AI, attached to a step, surfaced automatically, or available the moment they need to ask, all grounded in your own knowledge.

What’s the difference between Pinned AI, Proactive AI, and On-Demand AI?

Pinned AI attaches AI directly to a workflow step, so guidance appears exactly where an issue starts. Proactive AI is surfaced through the Action Bar, reading context across the whole screen to suggest the next best action automatically. On-Demand AI is initiated by your team in the WalkMe Menu: they ask a question in any application and get a grounded answer, with an action ready to run.

Do I need to set up knowledge sources separately for Pinned, Proactive, and On-Demand AI?

No, one setup covers all three. WalkMe AI draws on the same underlying knowledge layer, so you configure your sources once, rescan on a schedule you control, and every capability stays current. That knowledge layer runs on Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG): WalkMe retrieves the most relevant information from your own documentation and policies first, then grounds its answer in that.
