When to use the AI assistant
Reach for the AI assistant when you need:- Quick information about services, processes, eligibility, or paperwork.
- Help getting started on the platform — for example, where to find a particular blog post or how to join a meeting.
- Drafting help for an email, application, or message you want to send.
- A first answer before deciding whether you need to talk to a human caseworker.
Key capabilities
Multi-model AI
Choose from a range of leading AI providers — including OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Groq, and more. You can configure a default model or switch per request to match your needs.
Conversation memory
The assistant retains the full context of your conversation within a session, so you never have to repeat yourself. Follow-up questions are understood naturally.
Document retrieval
Ask questions about resources, policies, and support documents. The assistant searches connected knowledge bases and surfaces relevant information directly in the conversation.
Role-aware responses
The assistant adapts its responses based on whether you are a refugee user or an NGO admin, surfacing the most relevant information and actions for your role.
How to start a conversation
Log in to WeCareRemote
Sign in to your account at wcr.is/home. Your role is automatically detected at login.
Open the AI assistant
Navigate to the AI Assistant section from the main menu. The chat interface loads immediately — no additional setup is required.
Type your message
Enter your question or request in the text field and press Send. The assistant responds within seconds, drawing on your conversation history and any connected documents.
Your conversation history is saved after each session. When you return to the AI assistant, previous exchanges are available, so the assistant can provide context-aware responses based on your past interactions.
Tips for better results
- Be specific. “What housing support is available in Berlin for a family of four?” gets a more useful answer than “I need housing.”
- Share relevant context. Mention your role, location, language, or NGO when it might affect the answer.
- Ask follow-ups. The assistant remembers the conversation — you do not need to repeat earlier details.
- Ask in your own language. Most supported models handle multilingual conversation well; you do not need to switch to English.
- Tell the assistant when it is wrong. If a response is off, say so. The assistant adjusts based on your feedback within the conversation.
Limitations to be aware of
The AI assistant is a powerful tool, but it has limits:- It is not a lawyer, doctor, or caseworker. Treat its responses as a starting point, not as final advice on legal, medical, or administrative matters.
- It can make mistakes. Always verify critical information — deadlines, eligibility rules, contact details — with an NGO staff member or an official source.
- It only knows what is connected. The assistant draws on its training data plus any knowledge base your NGO has connected. It does not have live access to external systems unless explicitly integrated.
- Conversation history is stored. Anything you write is retained per your organization’s retention policy — see Memory and history.
