AI CTRL quick start
Use AI CTRL to get an answer, work with a file, or draft something you can reuse. The models and tools you see depend on what your organization has enabled for you.
1. Sign in
Open the workspace URL your organization gave you, select Sign in, and follow the prompts to use your work account. You can check your organization or sign out from the account menu at the bottom of the sidebar.
2. Send your first message
- Select New chat in the sidebar.
- Check the model name below the message box. Keep the suggested choice, turn on Auto to let AI CTRL choose a model, or open All models to pick a model or agent.
- Type a request and select the Send arrow. Try: “Draft a short email asking my team for their project updates by Friday. Include three questions they can answer.”
- Read the reply and ask a follow-up, such as “Make it shorter and friendlier.” If you need to interrupt a reply, select Stop.
3. Add a file or some context
Select Add to chat (+) to attach a file. Wait for it to finish uploading, then tell AI CTRL what to do with it. For example: “Summarize this PDF in five bullets and flag any decisions I need to make.”
If you have a group of documents you want to reuse, upload them to Collections, wait for them to be indexed, then use Add to chat → Collections to bring them into the chat. Open citations in the answer to check the original documents.
If a tool asks for permission, review the proposed action and choose Approve or Decline.
4. Keep or share the result
- To come back to the chat, Pin it from its ⋮ menu in the sidebar. Use Search chats to find it later, or Move to project to group it with related chats.
- If AI CTRL creates a file, open it in the side panel and use Download to save a copy.
- To share a finished reply and its conversation, open Share at the top of the chat. Choose Private for specific people or groups, or Public for everyone in your organization. The link shows a read-only snapshot. Use Update shared chat if you want the same link to show newer replies.
Open Help beside the account menu for features and release notes. See the full user guide for more on Projects, Collections, agents, skills, settings, and troubleshooting.
