- Once connected, you can determine how Groupthink interacts with your calendar events.
- Choose if you want Groupthink to automatically attend calendar events where:
  - You are the host/orgnizer
  - You are invitee, but not the host
  - There are a minimum of two attendees on the invitation (to avoid adding Groupthink to reminders and placeholders)

## Disconnecting Your Calendar

You may disconnect your calendar from Groupthink at any time. This will prevent Groupthink from accessing your calendar events and adding agendas to your meetings.

1. Log in to your Groupthink account
2. In the left sidebar, click **Orgs**

### Creating an AI Coworker

AI Coworkers are AI-powered systems that can do various tasks for you.

You'll provide your AI Coworker with responsibilities it should perform based on things you'd like it to monitor, such as your email, GitHub, or meetings you're attending or invited to.

AI Coworkers belong to the Organization they're created in.

1. Click "AI Coworkers" in the left hand navigation bar
2. Click "Create Assistant" button in the upper right
3. Give your AI Coworker a name and username (so they can be mentioned in chats and docs)
4. Describe what your AI Coworker does
5. Click "Create Assistant"
6. Your AI Coworker will be added to the list of AI Coworkers

### Managing Permissions

Each AI Coworker has individual permissions that control who in your Organization can interact with them.

Each AI Coworker may be set to be available to **specific users** or **anyone in the organization**.

To change the AI Coworker's visibility, add, or remove specific users, click on "Share" in the header while viewing the AI Coworker.

Keep in mind that anyone with permission to view the AI Coworker can see, add, and remove any of the Responsibilities and Monitors that have been created for it, as well as interact with the AI Coworker via chat.

### Adding Connections

Connections are the systems that your AI Coworker can access to perform work. You grant the AI Coworker access to a Connection, just like you may grant a human employee access to software they need to do their job.

1. Click on AI Coworkers in the navigation
2. Click "Manage" next to the AI Coworker you want to add Connections to
3. Click on the "Profile & Access" tab
4. Check the boxes next to the Connections you want your AI Coworker to be able to access

### Adding Monitors

Monitors are the systems that your AI Coworker can monitor for changes. You grant the AI Coworker access to a Monitor, and as data changes in that external system, the AI Coworker will be able to see those changes and act on them through recurring Responsibilities.

1. Click on AI Coworkers in the navigation
2. Click "Manage" next to the AI Coworker you want to add Monitors to
3. Click on the "Watching" tab
4. Click "+ New Monitor"
5. Select the type of Monitor you want to add
6. Select the Connection you want the Monitor to use
7. Fill out any requested details about the Monitor
8. Click "Create Monitor"

### Chatting with an AI Coworker

After you create a new AI Coworker, you will be added to a new chat room with the AI Coworker. You may ask the AI Coworker what work they can perform, and they will answer based on the Connections they have access to and the Responsibilities they have been given.

The Room will only be you and the AI Coworker to start, but you can add anyone else in your Organization by clicking "Share" in the Room.

### Creating Responsibilities

Responsibilities define work that an AI Coworker should do.

They are made up of a trigger, which is the event that causes the work to happen, and a set of instructions that the AI Coworker should follow.

1. Click "Manage [AI Coworker Name]"
2. Give your AI Coworker some responsibilities by clicking "New Responsibility"

##### Responsibility Trigger

Explain **when** work should happen.

For example:

- "A new email is received"
- "A new Github issue is added to the API repo"
- "You're mentioned in a chat and asked to create copy for a social media post"

##### Responsibility Instructions

Explain **what** work should happen.

This is a free-form text field, so you can just write instructions without knowing anything about how they will be implemented. However, the more structure and opinion you give the better the AI Coworker will perform.

You'll be able to iterate on this later after you see how your AI Coworker performs.

For example:

- Consider using a numbered or bulleted list
- Be very explicit about the output you want, with as much detail as possible
- Be very specific about the output you want, with as much nuance as possible

##### Responsibility Additional Information

Add any important details or contextual information here. This could include details about the trigger, the tasks, how this fits into the overall work you and your team is doing, and even encouragement for your AI Coworker.

The more the AI Coworker knows, the better it can perform. This is also a great way for **you** to capture the _why_ behind what you're asking them to do.

## Frequently Asked Questions

### How Many AI Coworkers Can I have?

AI Coworkers is a recently launched feature, and for now you can create unlimited coworkers. This may change in the future.

Skills & Capabilities


AI Coworkers track the work you assign to them, just like a human. Each task is a specific action that the AI Coworker has taken, and includes information such as the title and instructions of the task, which AI Coworker performed the task, and when the task was performed.

You interact with Tasks like you would in any other productivity application - you can assign them to any AI Coworker, monitor their status, and participate in the conversation as updates are posted.

AI Coworkers do the same, working just like a human would. As they perform steps in the task, they will update the task with their progress, and you can ask them questions about the task at any time.

When an AI Coworker needs more information or encounters a problem, the Task will be updated to say so, and the AI Coworker will ask for assistance. You can respond to the AI Coworker in the Task comments, and they will use your response to try and complete the task.

You can also ask the AI Coworker to follow up on a completed Task. After the work is done, you may ask the AI Coworker to do additional work, answer a question about the work that was performed, and more.

![AI Coworker Task](/groupthink-ai-coworker-task.png)

## Viewing & Managing Tasks

Tasks are collected in a single view you can access by clicking "Tasks" in the navigation in Groupthink.

Tasks are organized by their status, with Tasks that require human input in the first tab, and less important tasks in subsequent tabs.

## Creating Tasks

You may manually create and assign a Task to an AI Coworker at any time.

1. Navigate to Tasks using the Groupthink navigation
2. Click "New Task" at the top of your screen
3. Give the Task a title and instructions. **Remember, more details and specific instructions will help the AI Coworker perform the task better! (just like a human)**
4. Select an AI Coworker to assign the task to. Keep in mind that not all of your AI Coworkers will have the same skills, and you may need to assign the task to the correct AI Coworker
5. Set the status of the task: If you select "Draft", the task will not be picked up by your AI Coworker. If you select "Ready", the task will be picked up by the AI Coworker and work will be started immediately.

You'll be directed to the Task management screen, and you'll be able to see progress updates as your AI Coworker works on the Task.

## Tasks & Recurring Responsibilities

Every time an AI Coworker executes one of its Responsibilities, it will track the work it is doing in a Task. This gives you a detailed view of the work that is being done, and allows you to ask questions about the work that was performed.

You don't need to do anything to create a Task from a Responsibility - your AI Coworker will do it for you!

## Tasks & Chatting with AI Coworkers

Your AI Coworker will track all of the work it performs, even when you're chatting with it inside Groupthink.

You can ask the AI Coworker to perform work, and it will create a Task for you before performing that work.

Your AI Coworker can also answer questions about data inside Groupthink, or in the external systems you've given the AI Coworker access to.


AI Coworkers track the work you assign to them, just like a human

Tasks


AI Coworkers are agents you define to help you get more work done, and are available to all Groupthink users at https://agendas.groupthink.com/assistants

Groupthink currently offers a general-purpose AI Coworker called an AI Coworker.

Each AI Coworker has a name, username, job title, and job description. AI Coworkers can be given responsibilities, which are tasks they should perform based on things you'd like them to monitor, such as your email, GitHub, or meetings you're attending or invited to.

AI Coworkers belong to the Organization they're created in, and anyone in the Organization may create or modify an AI Coworker.

## Responsibilities

Responsibilities define work that an AI Coworker should do.

Each Responsibility has a trigger that defines when the responsibility should be performed, tasks that define the work that should be done, and an option to define extra information that may help the AI Coworker perform the task better.

Responsibilities may be enabled or disabled, allowing you to control whether the AI Coworker should perform the work.

## Connections

AI Coworkers know when to run Responsibilities by watching for changes in the data sources you've given them access to. For example, if you've given an AI Coworker access to your GitHub organization, it will know when a new issue is created and can run a Responsibility based on that trigger.

Authorizing an AI Coworker to access an external system is done by allowing the AI Coworker to access a Connection you've created in Groupthink. Different Connections offer different methods of access, and you may define this when creating the Connection. Keep in mind that in many cases, the AI Coworker may be acting **as you** when utilizing the Connection.

## Monitors

Once an AI Coworker has been authorized to use a Connection, you may define one or more Monitors that instruct the AI Coworker to "watch" for changes in the data source. For example, you may create a Monitor that watches for new emails in your inbox, or new issues in a GitHub repository.

Keep in mind that you may want to create multiple Monitors for the same Connection or data source. For example, you may want your AI Coworker to watch for changes in two different GitHub organizations, or two different email accounts.

## Tasks

Tasks demonstrate the work that an AI Coworker can perform. Each task is a specific action that the AI Coworker has taken, and includes information such as the title and instructions of the task, which AI Coworker performed the task, and when the task was performed.

Using Groupthink Documents


## Creating Your Organization

When you created your Groupthink account, an initial organization was automatically created for you and you are its only member.

To manage your organization, navigate to "Organization Settings" at the bottom of the left-hand navigation bar.

## Adding or Removing Organization Members

To add or remove members of the organization, navigate to the Organization Settings tab labeled "Members" to see an editable list of your organization's members.

To invite a member, use the "Invite New Member" buttton and submit their email address.

To remove a member, use the "Remove" button next to their name.

## Enabling Auto-Join for Your Domain

Groupthink gives you the option to automatically let other people who sign up and verify their email address with the same email address domain as you to auto-join your Organization. This is an easy way to ensure all the people at a company have access.

### Disabling Auto-Join

On the first Organization Settings tab, you will see a button that says "Disable Auto-Join for yourcompany.com" with the domain of the email you used to sign up.

Please note, this will only work for company domains, not general domains like gmail.com

## What Organization Members Can See

By default, organization members may **view** all agendas, recaps, recordings, and documents created by other organization members.

You can still mark agendas as private or remove specific members manually, but by default sharing will be turned on.

## External Collaborators on Agendas & Documents

Individuals who meet with you may be granted automatic access to an Agenda or Document if they are an attendee on a calendar event that Groupthink attempts to join. While these individuals will have access to that Agenda and Document(s), they will not be added to your Organization. This ensures that external collaborators may participate in a Meeting and its Agenda without being able to see your other assets within the Organization.


Managing Organizations


To delete your account, navigate to https://agendas.groupthink.com/settings and click “Permanently Delete Account…” at the bottom under “Danger Zone”.

This will remove your user, detach it from all agendas, remove all connections to external integrations, remove any calendar sync connections, and detach it from all organizations.

Please note you may still receive emails if included in Groupthink meetings with others.


Delete Your Groupthink Account


Agenda contribution reminders are a great way to engage with your team and ensure everyone is prepared for the meeting. They are automatically enabled for all users in Groupthink, but you can choose to disable them if you prefer not to receive them.
Here's how to manage receiving agenda reminders in Groupthink:

### Managing Receipt of Agenda Reminders

1. Login to Groupthink and click "User Settings" in the navigation panel on the left side of the screen.
2. Click on "Notifications" in the tab panel.
3. Under "Meeting Contribution Reminders", toggle the switch to choose to receive or stop receiving reminders for upcoming meetings.


Manage Agenda Contribution Reminders


Groupthink gives you powerful tools to control who can access, participate, and contribute to your meeting agendas. With our new detailed permissions settings, managing agendas is more secure and easier than ever, ensuring the right people have the right level of access.

## Key Features

- Control who can view and edit agendas with flexible visibility options.
- Assign specific roles to ensure participants have the appropriate permissions.
- Lock down sharing settings for complete privacy when needed.

## Agenda Visibility Settings

Agendas offer three visibility levels:

- **Specific Individuals**: Only manually added members may view the agenda.
- **Organization Members**: Anyone in the organization may view the agenda.
- **Public**: Anyone with the link may view the agenda.

Manually added members always have access regardless of the visibility setting. This ensures that key stakeholders can participate without any extra steps.

## Member Roles

You can assign one of three roles to each member:

- **Host**: Full control over agenda settings, participant management, and editing.
- **Participant**: Can edit the agenda, manage participants, and remove themselves or others.
- **Viewer**: Can view the agenda but cannot make any changes, participate in the video conference, or interact via chat.

## Private Agendas

The Host has the option to set the agenda to **Private**, restricting others from changing sharing settings. This is particularly useful if you want the agenda to be locked down to yourself or a specific, trusted group of people.

## Default Settings for Existing Agendas

By default, agendas are set to Specific Individuals for visibility, with the event organizer assigned the Host role to simplify setup and maintain security.

## Changing Agenda Visibility

To change agenda visibility settings:

1. Navigate to the agenda you wish to modify.
2. Click on the "Access" tab at the top of the agenda.
3. Use the dropdown menu to select the desired visibility level (Specific Individuals, Organization Members, or Public).

## Changing a Member's Role

To change a member's role:

1. Navigate to the agenda you wish to modify.
2. Click on the "Access" tab at the top of the agenda.
3. Find the member whose role you want to change.
4. Use the role dropdown next to their name to select the new role (Host, Participant, or Viewer).

### Configure Notifications

meeting summary that's shared with you.

Managing your meeting's agenda is a breeze with Groupthink. Here's a step-by-step guide to help you get the most out of your agenda management.

### 1\. Creating Agenda Items

Every agenda in Groupthink can have an unlimited number of items. To add a new item:

- Navigate to your desired agenda.
- Agendas operate like numbered lists in text documents.
- Simply hit `Enter` after an empty line to create a new agenda item.

### 2\. Setting the Task for an Agenda Item

By default, every agenda item is set to "DISCUSS". This means the item is intended for discussion during the meeting. However, you can easily change this:

- Click on "DISCUSS" next to the agenda item.
- Choose from the following options:
  - DISCUSS: For items that need discussion.
  - FYI: For items that just need to be verbalized without much discussion.
  - TODO: For items that require action or follow-up.
  - LATER: For items to be addressed at a later date. After selecting this, you'll be prompted to enter a date in the format `YYYY-MM-DD`.

Items with dates will automatically sort to the bottom of the agenda. As the date approaches, they'll rise to the top, ensuring you never miss an important item.

### 3\. Assigning Agenda Items

Every agenda item has an assignee:

- By default, the creator of the item is the assignee.
- To reassign, click on the assignee's name. This will display a list of everyone participating in the agenda or meeting.
- Click on a participant's name to reassign the item to them.
- Alternatively, type any email address into the assignee field. Groupthink will automatically invite that person to the agenda and assign the item to them.

### 4\. Formatting Agenda Items

Agenda items are freeform text, allowing for flexibility:

- Highlight any text within an agenda item.
- A menu will appear, offering formatting options like bold, italics, bullets, and more.

### 5\. Navigating Agenda Items During a Meeting

When in an active meeting:

- Each agenda item will have a checkbox next to it.
- Check the box or click "finished" on the agenda item to mark it as complete. This will automatically move the focus to the next item.

### 6\. Taking Notes with Groupthink

For Groupthink to take notes during a meeting:

- Ensure you have an active agenda item selected.
- The selected item must not be empty. Type a brief description or a few words about the topic so Groupthink knows what to take notes about.


Managing Agenda Items


Groupthink will automatically take notes and even create Agenda items for you during your meetings.

### 1\. Free-Form Text in Agenda Items

Every agenda item in Groupthink is designed for flexibility:

- As a user, you can type anything into any agenda item. They're designed as free-form text fields, allowing you to jot down thoughts, questions, or any other relevant information.

### 2\. Automatic Transcription and Note-Taking

If Groupthink is a participant in your Zoom, Meet, or Teams conference:

- Groupthink will automatically transcribe the ongoing conversation.
- It then processes this transcription, extracting key decisions and important statements.
- These crucial points are then inserted into the relevant agenda item, appearing as if a user had manually typed them.

For this feature to work effectively:

- Ensure the agenda item selected during the discussion has a brief description or a few words about the topic. This helps Groupthink determine what's relevant to the discussion and what isn't.

#### BETA: The following features may not be available to all users.

### 3\. Automatic Agenda Building

Groupthink doesn't just take notes; it can also build the agenda based on the flow of the conversation:

- If, during a meeting, there are no additional items listed after the currently selected item, or if the agenda is entirely empty, Groupthink will spring into action.
- As the conversation progresses, Groupthink will automatically create new agenda items, ensuring that every topic of discussion is documented.

### 4\. Managing Automatic Agenda Creation

While the automatic agenda creation feature is incredibly handy, we understand that sometimes you might want more control:

- To manually manage this feature, navigate to the three-dot menu located at the top of the agenda.
- Select "Settings" from the dropdown.
- Here, you'll find a switch labeled "Autocreate Items". Toggle this switch to enable or disable the automatic creation of agenda items.
