Who it is forA writer, analyst or manager who has a Word document to update and wants AI help without losing control of the original file.
The problemAsking a chatbot to rewrite a document means copying text back and forth, and the original formatting often breaks.
The outcomeThe Word file is revised in place, the edits appear as tracked changes, and the file still opens in Word.
What you need first
- A computer running macOS, Windows or Linux, with the GenOffice app downloaded from the releases page
- Either a Genspark sign-in or an API key from a supported provider such as Claude, OpenAI or Gemini, or a local OpenAI-compatible server
- For the agent use cases: Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI or another supported coding agent installed on the same computer
Steps
- Download GenOffice for your system from the releases page and install it.
- Open your .docx file in the Docs editor, or open it from the home screen.
- Turn on Track changes if you want edits shown as Word-style revisions.
- Ask the AI panel for the change, for example to rewrite a section or add a bulleted part.
- Review each AI turn, then keep the result or roll back to the snapshot taken before that turn.
- Save the file and open it in Word to confirm the formatting and revisions read correctly.
Prompt for your agent
Using the GenOffice app on this machine, open <path to .docx> in the Docs editor, ask the AI to tighten the Overview section, and keep edits as tracked changes. Expected output: the saved .docx with revisions visible. Verify that the file opens in Word with the original styles and comments intact.
Caveat. Only the AI calls leave the machine, to the provider you choose, so the content you send to the AI is shared with that provider.
