AI Chat Interface

Ask a question in plain language and watch Studio translate it into executed queries, segment definitions, and production-ready files — all streamed in real time so you can see every decision the AI makes.

Use the chat interface to send instructions, monitor AI execution in real time, and interact with responses through copy, edit, and stop actions.

• Signed in to Treasure AI Studio (Getting Started)
• At least one database accessible in your Treasure AI account (for query-related tasks)

Type your message in the input area at the bottom of the screen and press Enter (or tap the Send button) to send.

• Type in the message text area at the bottom of the screen
• Press Enter to send, or Shift+Enter for a new line
• The text area expands as you type, up to a maximum height

Before you type, the input shows a rotating example prompt (for instance, "e.g. build a segment of high-value shoppers who haven't purchased in 30 days") to suggest the kinds of requests Studio handles.

• Tap the text area labeled "Ask anything..."
• Tap the Send button (arrow icon) to send
• Use the microphone button to dictate your message instead of typing (see Voice Input)

Click the New Chat button (message-square-plus icon) in the sidebar under Chats.

A new chat opens to a welcome screen with the prompt "Welcome in. Every journey starts with a first step — where's yours?" and category suggestions to help you get started:

• Analyze data — Explore and compare data across your account
• Identify segments — Find and target an audience
• Plan email campaign — Design an email send
• Map journey — Design a customer journey

Selecting a category offers example prompts you can send as-is or edit.

Tap the floating action button (message-square-plus icon) at the bottom right of the chat list.

When you send a message, Studio shows the AI's response as it generates in real time.

Before responding, the AI may spend time reasoning about your request. While it does, a "Thinking" indicator appears. When the reasoning is relevant, it is shown in a collapsible block you can expand to follow how the AI planned its response — which tools to call, in what order, and how to structure a complex answer.

The AI's text appears word by word as it generates. If the AI needs to execute actions (run a query, read a file, call an API), you see each tool call displayed inline as it happens.

Tool calls display:

• Tool name and status (running, completed, or failed)
• Expandable details showing the tool's input and output
• Real-time progress — you can watch queries execute and results return

If you want to interrupt the AI mid-response:

• Web & Desktop: Click the Stop button (square icon) that replaces the Send button during generation
• Mobile: Tap the Stop button (square icon)

Studio's built-in agents can search the web in real time during a chat, automatically bringing current, real-world information into your conversation.

Studio's built-in agents decide on their own whether a web search is needed based on your prompt — there is no setting to turn on and no special command to type. If your question implies a need for recent or time-sensitive information, the agent recognizes this and searches the web before answering. Typical examples include:

• Recent market trends or industry news
• Competitor activity and announcements
• Any topic where up-to-date, real-world context matters

For requests that can be answered from your Treasure AI data or the AI's existing knowledge, no web search runs.

When a web search runs, it appears inline in the chat stream as a tool call, just like a query or API request. You can expand the tool call to see the search activity, and the AI incorporates the results into its response. This keeps every action transparent — you can always verify when and why the AI reached out to the web.

Hover over any assistant message to reveal a Copy button. Click it to copy the full response text to your clipboard. A checkmark icon confirms the copy.

Hover over any of your messages to reveal a pencil icon. Click it to edit your message:

1. The message text becomes editable in a text area
2. Modify your message
3. Click Submit to resend, or Cancel to discard changes

Sometimes the AI needs more information before proceeding. When this happens, a question card appears in the chat with the AI's question and an input field for your answer.

• Type your answer and click Submit
• The regular chat input is disabled with the placeholder "Answer the question above..." until you respond

To free resources, Studio releases a chat's working session after a period of inactivity (or if it was interrupted). When this happens:

• A banner explains why the session ended — for example, "Session ended due to inactivity."
• The full conversation history stays visible
• You can pick up where you left off: send a message, or click Resume to restart the session with its prior context

This ends the working session, not the chat. The conversation itself remains in your history until it is deleted (see Chat Persistence & History).

All AI actions execute in a server-side sandbox — not on your local machine. If the sandbox encounters an issue, you see:

"The sandbox environment crashed unexpectedly and is restarting. Please wait a moment and try again. If the problem persists, contact support."

The sandbox restarts automatically. See Security & Permissions for details on the execution environment.

Adding a file is really an upload plus a reference: Studio uploads the file to the chat's workspace and appends its path to your message. The AI then opens the file from that path — so the file isn't attached to the message so much as placed where the AI can read it.

• Click the plus button (+) in the chat input toolbar to pick a file
• Selected files appear as chips below the text area, each showing a file-type icon and name
• Click the X on a chip to remove one before sending
• When you send, each uploaded file's path is added to the end of your message

Tap the plus button (+) to open the file menu with options:

• File — Browse and select documents
• Camera — Take a photo
• Photos — Select from your photo library

Selected files appear as pills below the text area. Tap the X on a pill to remove one.

For details on supported file types and viewers, see File Upload & Download and File Viewers.
