+##### Remote OCR {#workflow-action-remote-ocr}
+
+"Remote OCR" actions send the document to the configured remote OCR engine instead of processing it
+locally. To use remote OCR selectively, set the [remote OCR mode](configuration.md#PAPERLESS_REMOTE_OCR_MODE)
+to `workflow_only` then add this action to a workflow that matches only the documents you
+want sent to the remote engine. See [Remote OCR](#remote-ocr) for the engine setup. The action only works with
+a **Consumption Started** trigger.
+
+The action takes no options, its presence is what enables remote OCR for a matching document.
+
+If the remote engine is not configured, or does not support the document's file type, the document is
+processed locally instead and a warning is written to the log.
+
+##### Apply AI Suggestions {#workflow-action-apply-ai-suggestions}
+
+"Apply AI Suggestions" actions ask the configured AI service for title and metadata suggestions,
+the same as the AI suggestions shown on the document detail page, except applied automatically and in bulk.
+It requires [AI features](configuration.md#ai) to be enabled. You can specify:
+
+- Which suggestions to apply: title, tags, correspondent, document type, storage path and / or created
+  date. Suggestions for fields you did not select are discarded.
+- Whether to create missing items. By default only tags, correspondents and document types that
+  already exist are assigned and any other suggestion is dropped. With this enabled, suggested items
+  that do not exist are created. Storage paths are never created.
+- Whether to overwrite existing values. By default a field is only filled in if it is currently empty.
+  Note that documents almost always already have a title and created date, so if you select those you
+  will usually want to enable this too. Tags are an exception: suggested tags are always added and
+  never replace the document's existing tags.
+
+The action works with every trigger **except Consumption Started**, because suggestions are made from
+the document's text, which does not exist until after the document has been processed.
+
+Because the query to the AI service is slow, the action is queued and runs in the background rather
+than as part of the workflow run itself. The document is updated once the suggestions come back.
+
+!!! warning
+
+    Every matching document results in a query to the AI service, which may incur costs and have privacy
+    implications. Queries can be slow, so a workflow matching a large number of documents can occupy the
+    task queue, and delay consumption of new documents, etc. Consider narrowing the trigger filters,
+    running in small batches and / or increasing workers.
