Working with Waxe

Waxe is the AI operations manager who plans, prices, drafts and designs your documents. This category shows you how to brief, steer and correct Waxe so every draft lands close to done.

Where to start

Waxe is the colleague at the centre of waxTable — describe a job and Waxe returns a finished, on-brand document with the right structure for its type. The better your brief, the closer the first draft, so most people start here.

  1. Meet Waxe

    Understand what your AI operations manager actually does before you brief it. See Who Waxe is.

  2. Brief well

    Learn what to tell Waxe — and what to paste in — for a strong first draft. See Brief Waxe for a great draft.

  3. Steer and correct

    Make single, surgical changes and recover gracefully when a draft misses. See Make surgical edits and When Waxe gets it wrong.

What you'll find here

  • Who Waxe is and where it fits in your workflow.
  • How to brief Waxe and feed it briefs, emails and notes.
  • Surgical edits that change one thing without a rewrite.
  • The slash palette for inserting blocks and triggering Waxe from the keyboard.
  • Citations and sources, so facts stay tied to where they came from.
  • What to do when a draft misses the mark.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to learn prompting to use Waxe?

No. You brief Waxe in plain language — describe the job or paste in your notes. A clearer brief gives a closer draft, but there is no special syntax to learn.

Does Waxe ever change my document without asking?

No. When Waxe proposes an edit you preview it first and then accept or reject. Nothing in your document changes until you approve it.

Is Waxe the same as a chatbot?

No. A chatbot returns text; Waxe returns a finished, paginated, on-brand document with the structure each document type needs. See What waxTable is.

What can I do if Waxe gets something wrong?

You can edit it yourself, ask Waxe to fix just that part, or regenerate. See When Waxe gets it wrong.
