Steps

  1. 1

    Open the AI chat

    On: /messages

    Open Messages and open the ItzSEO AI chat pinned at the top.

    You should see: A chat like any other.

  2. 2

    Ask a question

    On: /messages

    Type a question in plain words, for example "Show me my open tasks for Acme" or "What's my leave balance?".

    You should see: An answer drawn from your own workspace data.

  3. 3

    Ask it to do something

    On: /messages

    Ask for an action, for example "Remind me on Friday to call Acme about the renewal".

    You should see: The assistant confirms what it did.

  4. 4

    Handle an approval card

    On: /messages

    For anything that deletes, sends or changes several things, the assistant posts a card naming the action and the items affected, with Approve and Cancel. Read it before you press.

    You should see: After Approve the card shows a one-line summary of what was done. After Cancel it reads "Skipped".

  5. 5

    Know the daily budget

    On: /settings/ai-history

    Each workspace has a daily AI budget set by its plan. The owner can see today's spend and change the budget under Settings, AI history.

    You should see: You know where to look if the assistant says it has reached today's budget.

Tips

  • The assistant only sees what your role lets you see.
  • Be specific: name the project, the person and the date.

Troubleshooting

The assistant says it has reached today's budget.
The workspace's daily AI budget is used up. It resets tomorrow; the owner can raise it under Settings, AI history.
The assistant says it cannot see something.
It sees only what your role lets you see. Ask someone with access, or ask the owner to change your role.
