Projects have been replaced by the Studio. They’re gone from the sidebar, and new writing happens in the Studio. Your old project chats are still here: find them under Recent chats in the sidebar. This page is for picking one back up.
Getting back into a chat
Open any old project chat from Recent chats in the sidebar and pick up exactly where you left it. Starting something new? Head to the Studio.Choices
Some projects have choices, different “modes” you can pick before starting a session. For example, a content project might have choices for “Twitter post,” “LinkedIn post,” “Long-form article.” Each choice is its own version of the assistant with its own instructions and its own knowledge files. If a project has choices, you’ll see them as separate buttons on the project page. Pick the one that fits what you want to do. The conversation is scoped to that choice for the entire session.Sessions
Every conversation is a session. Sessions save automatically and the AI titles them after the first reply (so no more “Untitled chat (3)” graveyard giving you cortisol every time you open the app). You can:- Find any chat in the Recent chats section of the sidebar. Your 5 newest sessions live there (hit Show all for the rest), each with a little icon showing which project it belongs to. Nothing ever disappears, it’s all right there.
- Open an old session and keep going where you left off. The sidebar list gets you back in.
- Rename a session (right-click in the sidebar)
- Delete a session you don’t need
What the AI sees
Each project chat sends the AI:- The project’s instructions (set by the team)
- Knowledge files the team uploaded for that project
- Generated documents from any prerequisite tasks you’ve completed
- Documents you explicitly attached via the document picker
- The conversation history
Prerequisites
Just like tasks, projects can require certain tasks to be done first. If you see a lock screen when you open a project, that’s why. Finish the listed prereqs and the project unlocks. The reason: the project genuinely needs those documents to do good work. Skipping them isn’t a hack, it just means worse output. Trust the lock screens. We built them to protect you from yourself.Voice + files in chat
Every chat has:- Voice input: hit the mic, talk, it transcribes via Whisper. Useful when you’d rather think out loud than type.
- File attach: drop in an image or document. The AI reads it as part of the current message (one-time, not persistent).
- Document picker: paperclip icon. Attach docs from your library to the conversation as persistent context for that session.
