# Assistant

ShieldLlama Assistant is Protege's enterprise copilot for searching, analyzing, and synthesizing information across your compliance environment.

It is designed to help legal, compliance, brand, and operations teams move faster without switching across multiple systems. Assistant can answer questions using the data already available in your Protege workspace, including document reviews, monitoring results, policies, claims, and related workflow context.

Use the pages in this section to understand:

* common enterprise use cases
* what data the assistant can access
* how to frame questions for better results

For customers evaluating deeper workflow automation or external agent integrations, see the enterprise [Integrations & API](/review/enterprise-features/integrations-and-api.md) guide.
