Questions about using natural language in Prokurio.

01

What can I ask Prokurio?

Ask about forecasts, budgets, portfolio costs, future obligations, jurisdictions, matters, and the assumptions behind the numbers. Start with the business question you need to answer rather than a report name or field list.

02

Do I need to know how the data is organized?

No. Describe what you need in your own words. Prokurio interprets the request against the financial and portfolio information available to you.

03

Can I ask follow-up questions?

Yes. Refine the question, change a time period, compare jurisdictions, or move from a portfolio-wide answer into the matters and assumptions driving it.

04

Can I see where an answer came from?

Yes. Prokurio keeps answers connected to the underlying matters, jurisdictions, timing, fees, and assumptions so you can investigate the detail behind a total.

05

Is this only for IP specialists?

No. Natural-language access helps IP, Finance, leadership, and client-facing teams ask questions without learning a reporting tool first. Existing access controls still determine what each person can see.

06

Can Prokurio turn an answer into a chart or report?

Yes. Use the same trusted intelligence to create the view the moment requires, from an executive summary to a detailed financial breakdown, without starting the analysis again.

07

How current are the cost assumptions?

Prokurio maintains its global cost data and refreshes fee information every Saturday. Organization-specific schedules and assumptions can also be reflected in the analysis.

08

How is this different from asking in our own AI?

Inside Prokurio, named assistants such as the portfolio assistant and maintenance assistant let you ask questions in natural language. Prokurio MCP is the standalone product that connects selected Prokurio capabilities to compatible AI assistants and workflows.
