Start with a role
Create a researcher, a writing partner, or a teammate for a particular project.
Make the brief your own
Set their name, profile, and instructions. Refine those details as your work develops.
Keep the conversation going
Return to the same teammate with follow-ups, files, and the next piece of work.
Different strengths. One conversation.
Bring teammates into a group, share the brief once, and work through a question with their different perspectives in view.
Give everyone the same starting point
Use a group conversation to gather your teammates and the context for a piece of work.
Keep the discussion clear
Address a teammate and quote an earlier message when you want to focus the next reply.
Build on each contribution
Review the responses together, ask for a revision, and keep the outcome in the conversation.
From a conversation to something real.
Your teammates can use a hosted computer to browse, work with files, and carry out tasks. Open the viewer to follow along.
See the work happen
Open the computer alongside your conversation to watch the desktop and browser.
Bring the right files
Use teammate and shared workspace files to provide the materials a task needs.
Guide the next step
Take over when a task needs your input, then hand the computer back to your teammate.
Make the useful things repeat.
Turn a useful request into a routine. Give it a clear trigger, a focused brief, and a result you can come back to.
Choose when work starts
Create a schedule, or use an available event trigger for work that follows a change.
Carry the context forward
Give the routine the instructions, knowledge, and connected apps it needs.
Review and refine
Look at the results, adjust the brief, and pause a routine when your priorities change.
