Turn a chat answer into a real file

Ask your Talent to save its work as an artifact, then open the finished document, deck, spreadsheet or PDF from chat or the Artifacts page.

An artifact is a piece of work your Talent saved instead of just typing into the chat. It is a real, durable thing: it has a title, it keeps every version, it lives in your workspace, and you can download it as a file. Chat text scrolls away. An artifact does not.

Artifacts start owner-private. Nobody else in your workspace can open one until you decide to share it.

Ask for one

You do not need a special button. Say what you want and say you want it saved.

  1. Open Home and talk to your Talent, or send the same request from Slack, Telegram or iMessage.
  2. Ask for the work and name the shape you want. For example: "Pull the deals we closed last month from HubSpot, write a one page win/loss summary, and save it as a document."
  3. When the Talent finishes, a card appears under its message with the artifact's title and version.
  4. Choose Open on that card. The artifact opens beside your chat so you can read it without losing the conversation.

If you also want a downloadable file, say so in the same breath: "...save it as a document and render it as a PDF." You get one artifact with a PDF you can download, not two separate things.

A worked example

"Every Monday I have to tell the team what changed in the Notion roadmap."

Ask: "Read the Q3 Roadmap page in Notion, list what moved since last Monday, and save it as a document called Roadmap Changes. Render it as a DOCX so I can paste it into the deck."

You get one artifact named Roadmap Changes, version 1, with a DOCX in its Download menu. Next Monday, ask your Talent to update the same document. It writes version 2. Version 1 is still there.

Where artifacts show up

  • In chat, as a card under the message that produced them.
  • On the Artifacts page, under Workspace in the left navigation. That is the full list of everything you own.
  • In Activity, inside Settings, as a receipt. Every run leaves exactly one receipt, and the receipt links the exact version that run produced.

Editing

Open the artifact and choose Edit in the header. A document has two views: Preview, which is the deliverable itself, and Source, which is the exact text behind it. Save exists only while you are in Source. Every save creates a new version, so you can always go back.

You can also just ask. "Cut the last section and add a line about pricing" revises the same artifact and bumps the version.

What to check

  • No card appeared. The Talent answered in prose instead of saving. Say "save that as a document" and it will write one.
  • The card says queued or running. Rendering a file is real background work. It finishes on its own. Nothing is lost if you close the tab.
  • The card says failed. Choose Retry on the card. A retry starts a fresh attempt.
  • You cannot find it later. Artifacts are listed by title. If you did not name it, ask your Talent what it called the file, or sort the Artifacts page by Updated.
