Your First Interaction
What to say first, how conversations work, tips for getting the best results, and understanding conversation style.
What to Say First
There is no special syntax or format required. Just talk to your AI employee the way you would talk to a human assistant. Start with something simple like asking it to check your calendar, draft an email, or look something up. The AI employee understands natural language and can handle casual, conversational requests as well as detailed, specific instructions. The more specific you are, the better the result — but you do not need to be perfect.
A simple first task
Start with something straightforward to get a feel for how it works.
How Conversations Work
Conversations with your AI employee are contextual. The AI remembers what you have discussed within a session and can reference earlier messages. If you ask it to draft an email and then say "make it more formal," it knows which email you are referring to. For complex tasks, you can have back-and-forth exchanges to refine the output. The AI also has access to your stored knowledge, CRM data, calendar, and other connected systems, so it can pull in relevant context automatically.
Use the /new command to start a fresh conversation when switching to a completely different topic. This helps the AI focus on the new task without confusion from previous context.
Tips for Getting the Best Results
Here are some practical tips for working effectively with your AI employee. Be specific about what you want — instead of "send an email," say "draft a follow-up email to Sarah about the Q2 proposal." Provide context when it helps — mention relevant background information the AI might need. Give feedback on outputs — if something is not quite right, tell the AI what to change rather than starting over. Build on conversations — you can refine and iterate in the same session. And do not hesitate to ask the AI what it can do — it will tell you about its capabilities.
Being specific gets better results
Compare a vague request with a specific one.
Understanding the Conversation Style
Your AI employee adapts to your communication style over time. Initially, responses may be somewhat formal and thorough. As it learns your preferences, it adjusts — shorter responses if you prefer brevity, more detail if you like comprehensive updates. You can also explicitly tell your AI employee how you want it to communicate. For example, you can say "keep responses short" or "always include next steps" and it will remember these preferences going forward.
Tell your AI employee about your communication preferences early on. Say something like "I prefer bullet points over paragraphs" or "Always confirm before sending anything" to shape the experience.
