Use Chat to ask questions about your business system before changing it. Zite can inspect your app and workflows, explain how they work, and suggest improvements.

​
When to use Chat mode

  • Understand a process: What happens after a manager approves a request?
  • Investigate a problem: Why is a completed job still showing as overdue?
  • Compare options: Should clients update their details through a portal or a form?
Chat uses your selected model and AI credits. Asking questions still counts toward your usage limits.

How to use Chat mode

1

Choose Chat

Select the current mode below the chat box, then choose Chat. You can also press Shift + Tab to cycle to it.

Choose Chat to ask questions about your system.

2

Ask a focused question

Name the page, table, or workflow you mean. For a problem, explain what you did, what you expected, and what happened. For example:
In our job tracker, I marked a job Complete, but it still appears in the Overdue list. Explain how that list works and suggest what to check before changing anything.
Ask follow-up questions if the explanation is unclear.
3

Decide what to change

To apply an improvement, switch to Auto or Build and request the specific change. Choose Plan to work through a bigger change first.If Zite offers a Suggested prompt, review it before selecting Run prompt. This starts an editing turn using your saved Auto or Build preference.

What can change in Chat?

Chat is for discussing your app, rather than editing its screens or workflows. However, it can ask you to connect a tool or approve an action involving data. Review approval requests carefully: accepting one can save a connection, change records, or perform an action in a connected tool. Chat isn’t a blanket read-only lock on your workspace.
