Working with the assistant

The assistant works on your CRM from the chat. Ask in your own words: “Who in the DACH campaign went quiet this month?”, “Log a call with Jana and create a follow-up ticket.”

Click the attach button to add files to a message.

Limit
Types Images (PNG, JPG), TXT, CSV, MD, JSON, XML, PDF, DOCX
Size 10 MB per file
Per message 5 files, of which at most 3 images

Attached files are checked for hidden instructions (prompt injection) before the assistant reads them.

The Agent menu next to the chat input turns on a special mode for your next request. Only one mode can be on at a time. Picking another switches the first one off, and picking the active one again turns it off.

Mode What it does
Deck Builds a slide deck
Deep search Searches deeper across all sources and writes a cited research report
Discovery Creates an ICP and suggests prospects for a campaign

Deep search switches itself off after one request. Deck and Discovery stay on until you turn them off.

Use it for questions that need real research: an account before a call, a market, a competitor.

  • Say how deep you want to go in your message. The assistant may ask a few questions first.
  • It takes minutes, not seconds, and stops after 30 minutes at most.
  • You can run one deep search at a time.
  • The result is a report with numbered citations and a Sources section, shown in the Generate tab.

Reports from the web app are not saved to the Knowledge Hub automatically. Click Save to Knowledge Hub to keep one. It goes to the Deep Research Reports folder by default, which everyone in the workspace can read.

Deep search uses your workspace’s AI credits. See Plans & usage.

Reports, drafts and other documents the assistant writes appear in the Generate tab. For each one you can:

  • export it as a Markdown file or PDF document, or Copy as text;
  • Save to Knowledge Hub;
  • Delete artifact. Deleted documents are removed for good after 30 days.

The assistant can do work later, or on a schedule: “Every Monday at 9:00, list engaged contacts I haven’t touched in two weeks.”

  1. Ask for it in the chat. The assistant proposes the job.
  2. Check the proposal and click Schedule (or Start batch for a job that works through a list). Until then it shows Awaiting confirmation. A proposal you never confirm expires after 72 hours.
  3. Manage your jobs in Library → Jobs: Pause selected, Resume selected, Delete selected or Delete job.
Limit Value
Shortest interval for a recurring job 5 minutes
One-time job Up to 365 days ahead
Active jobs 100 per person, 1,000 per workspace
Batch jobs Up to 5,000 items each, 5 active per workspace

A job that fails three times in a row is paused. When the workspace’s AI credits run out, runs are skipped until the next period. Results can also be sent to you on Telegram.

kōdlo can remember useful facts across chats.

  • Workspace switch: Settings → General → Long-term memory → Remember across chats. Only the Owner can change it. It is available on some plans only. Memory updates overnight and is deleted when the switch is turned off.
  • Your own memory: Settings → Assistant → Memory. Turn Learn from my chats on or off, or clear what was learned. Memory is rebuilt nightly from your chat history, so to remove something for good, also delete the chats it came from.

Teach the assistant how you write, so its drafts sound like you. Open Settings → Assistant → Tone of voice and click New tone of voice.

  • Give it a Name and describe the Style.
  • Paste some Your real messages, for example LinkedIn messages or connection notes you sent.
  • Choose Use it by default for the tone the assistant should use unless you say otherwise.

Tones of voice are personal. Your teammates do not see yours.
