Asking Questions

The AI assistant is designed to understand natural, everyday language. You don’t need special commands or keywords — just ask like you would ask a coworker.

How to Send a Message

• Voice (mobile) — Hold the “Hold To Talk” button and speak. Release to send. See the Voice Input guide for more.
• Type — Use the chat input box at the bottom of the screen.

What You Can Ask About

Here are some examples to get you started:

Products and Inventory

• “Do we have 1/2 inch copper fittings?”
• “What’s the price on SKU 12345?”
• “How many gallons of Behr exterior paint do we have in stock?”

Tasks

• “What tasks are assigned to me this week?”
• “Create a task to restock aisle 7.”

Team Activity

• “What has the team been working on today?”
• “Who posted last in the newsfeed?”

General Store Operations

• “What are our top sellers this month?”
• “Compare these two drill sets for me.”

Attaching Images

You can attach photos to your message for the AI to analyze. This is great when a customer brings in a part and you need to identify it. See the Image Recognition guide for details.

Scanning Barcodes

Use the barcode scanner to reference a specific product in your question. Scan the item and the AI will pull up the matching product so you can ask follow-up questions about it.

Conversation Context

The AI remembers what you’ve talked about within a conversation. You can ask follow-up questions without repeating yourself:

• “Do we have PVC cement?” … “How much does it cost?” … “Create a restock task for that.”

Starting a New Conversation

When you move on to a new topic, it’s a good idea to start a fresh conversation. Open the conversations list and tap the new conversation button. This keeps things organized and helps the AI give you more focused answers.
