Groupthink offers the ability to chat via text in real-time with the members of your organization, your AI Employees, and with your default Groupthink Meeting Assistant via @Groupthink to add additional intelligence to any conversation.
Groupthink offers chat in the following ways:
Groupthink Chat is powered by our built-in AI that's here to make your conversations smarter. Whether you're brainstorming ideas, seeking quick insights, or need help clarifying a point, our AI is ready to jump in and enhance your chat experience.
Direct Interaction:
Simply type @groupthink followed by your query or command, and our AI will join the conversation with context-aware responses.
Contextual Assistance:
The AI leverages your organization's stored information to provide tailored answers and suggestions, ensuring that its input is always relevant to your work.
Collaborative Conversations:
Use the AI to facilitate discussions by offering insights, tracking decisions, or providing additional data—making both real-time and asynchronous communication more effective.
AI Employees are custom assistants that you create to help with specific tasks in your organization. Each AI Employee gets its own dedicated chat room where you can interact with it directly.
When you create a new AI Employee, you're automatically added to a new chat room with just you and the AI Employee. This room works just like any other chat room, but with some powerful additional capabilities:
Access to Company Knowledge: Your AI Employee can access information from your organization's documents, meeting transcripts, agendas, and other data stored in Groupthink.
Skill Execution: When you ask your AI Employee to perform tasks like drafting emails, creating documents, or searching meeting notes, it can execute these actions using the connections you've granted it.
Task Tracking: When your AI Employee performs work based on your chat requests, it will create a Task to track this work and provide you with a link to view the Task's progress.
Here are some examples of how you can interact with your AI Employees in chat:
You can add other members of your organization to an AI Employee's chat room by clicking the "Share" button in the room. This allows multiple team members to collaborate with the AI Employee in the same conversation.

We don't currently have support for leaving a room once you've joined it, but you can ask the room's Owner to remove you.
To find the room Owner, enter the chat room and click "Share" to see the owner listed all the top of the room's members.
Direct Messages are private chats between two or more individuals that are not discoverable across your organization
You can create an unlimited number of direct messages in Groupthink.
Direct messages have sharing that works the same way as in other chat rooms.
IMPORTANT: If you change the permissions of a DM conversation to "Anyone in the organization" it will be discoverable and joinable by anyone, and they will also be able to see all your chat history. Use with care!
Chat is a newly released feature of Groupthink, and we still have a lot more we want to build to make it awesome for you! Feel free to drop a note to support@groupthink.com anytime with your questions, ideas, or concerns using chat
