Unlike a blank AI chat interface, Home chat already knows about you, your company, and your connected tools. It's designed to be your go-to place for exploratory conversations, quick tasks, and discovering what elvex can do for you.

You might use Home chat when:

To access Home chat, click Home in the left sidebar. This takes you to the main chat interface where you can start a conversation immediately.

The AI provider you chat with in Home chat is determined by your company administrators, who select which AI provider (such as OpenAI, Anthropic, or others) your organization uses.

The specific model within that provider is selected by the elvex team to ensure you're using an up-to-date, high-capability model that provides the best experience.

Note: Company administrators can modify these default settings to align with organizational requirements.

Home chat automatically has access to your personal and company context, which means it understands information about your role, your organization, and relevant background that helps it provide more relevant responses. You don't need to re-explain who you are or what your company does in every conversation.

After you've connected integrations (like Google Sheets, Slack, or your CRM), Home chat can reference and interact with these systems during your conversations. This allows you to ask questions about data in connected systems or perform actions without leaving the chat.

One of Home chat's most powerful features is the ability to dynamically reference different resources as your conversation evolves:

At any point during a conversation, you can call out specific datasources you want elvex to reference. This is useful when you realize mid-conversation that you need information from a particular document, spreadsheet, or database.

You can reference other agents you've created during your Home chat conversation. This allows you to leverage specialized agent capabilities without switching contexts.

Similarly, you can call out specific projects to give Home chat context about ongoing work, decisions, or project-specific information that's relevant to your current conversation.

When you discover that a conversation in Home chat is something you'll want to repeat or refine, you can convert it into a specialized agent. This allows you to take an exploratory conversation and turn it into a reusable tool with its own configuration, datasources, and rules.

Home chat conversations can be shared with others in your organization, making it easy to collaborate or show colleagues how you approached a particular task or question.

Based on the names and descriptions of agents within your company's elvex account, Home chat intelligently suggests relevant agents that might help with your current task. These suggestions help you discover specialized agents you might not have known existed, making it easier to find the right tool for your needs.
