Your AI Assistant

Meet your personal AI companion — always available, always learning, and deeply connected to your workspace.

Your AI assistant is the heart of Opisense. It's not a chatbot bolted onto the side of a productivity tool — it's a personal companion that understands your work, remembers your conversations, and can take real action across your entire workspace.

What the assistant can do

Here's what makes it powerful:

  • Chat about anything — Writing, research, analysis, brainstorming, problem-solving. Ask it whatever you need, and it responds with context-aware answers.
  • Remember your conversations — It carries forward what you've discussed across sessions. You don't have to re-explain context every time you come back.
  • Search your knowledge base — Connect documents and files so the assistant can pull accurate answers from your team's actual content.
  • Manage files — Upload documents, reference them in conversation, and let the assistant work with your files directly.
  • Run on a schedule — Set up recurring tasks (cron jobs) so the assistant handles routine work automatically, even when you're not around.

How it works

The assistant combines three sources of intelligence to give you relevant, grounded responses:

  1. Your conversation history — What you've discussed before, your preferences, your decisions
  2. Your knowledge base — Documents and files you've uploaded that the AI can search through
  3. Your workspace context — What you're working on right now, your projects, your schedule

This is what makes the assistant feel like it actually knows you. It's not starting from scratch — it's building on everything it's learned. For a deeper look at the AI architecture, see AI-Powered Workspace.

Quick start

Go to your assistant

Click Assistant in the sidebar, or use the keyboard shortcut to open a new chat. You'll land in a clean conversation ready to go.

Send your first message

Try something like "What can you help me with?" or "Help me brainstorm ideas for my next project." The assistant responds in real time.

Explore what it can do

Ask follow-up questions, upload a file, or try a more complex request like "Summarize the key points from my uploaded document." The more you use it, the better it gets.

Customize your experience

Head to Settings to configure the assistant's personality, connect knowledge sources, and set up integrations.
