The chat assistant

The chat is the heart of SupaNet. It looks like a normal AI chat, but it is connected to the rest of your workspace, so it can do things a plain chatbot cannot.

The basics

Type a message, get a reply. Replies stream in as they are written. Your conversation is saved and synced across your devices, so you can start something on your laptop and pick it up on your phone.

Everything you say is private to you unless you deliberately share it (for example by saving an artifact and setting it to public).

Attaching files

There is a paperclip in the message box. Use it to attach files to a message:

Images and PDFs are handed to the assistant so it can actually look at them and answer questions.
Text files are pulled into the message so the assistant can read them.

Anything you attach also shows up in Files, so you do not lose it.

If your team has uploaded PDFs, the assistant can search them and answer from their contents, and it will tell you which document an answer came from. You do not have to attach the PDF every time - once it is in the knowledge base, the assistant can find it. See Files & knowledge for how that works.

Tools the assistant can use

Depending on what your admin has turned on, the assistant can do more than chat. Common examples:

Search the web for current information.
Send or check email (once email is configured for the workspace).
Call a custom tool your team built for a specific job.

When the assistant uses a tool, that activity is logged so there is a clear record of what happened.

Saving what it makes

When the assistant produces something worth keeping - a document, a snippet of code, a small web page - it can save it as an artifact and give you a link you can share. You do not have to copy and paste it somewhere else.

Shortcuts and skills

Type / (or use the ⚡ button) to pull up skills - reusable prompts your team set up for common tasks. Instead of re-explaining what you want every time, you pick the skill and go. More on that in Skills & prompts.
