Good to know
Questions, answered.
Will the work instructions match our format?
Yes. It writes into your Google Docs template using your process notes and photos, and flags any step where the source material was unclear so you can fill the gap before release.
Does it push ECNs through approval itself?
No. It assembles the change-notice packet from your part and drawing data, but routing and approval stay with you and your change board.
Is my data safe?
Sauna reads only what you connect, and acts only after you approve. Your workspace and its memory are yours, not training data.
