AI explanations | Insights

AI explanations translate any privilege path or finding into a plain-language breakdown. No prompt writing required. Select a node or open a finding, click a button, and get an explanation that covers what the path or detection means, the risk it represents, and what to do about it.

Explanations persist for the session and can be copied at any time after they finish generating.
