Chat Feature
Snorbe’s chat feature allows you to ask questions and request research from your AI assistant using natural language. You don’t need to learn any specialized commands. Simply say “look into this” as you would in everyday conversation, and the AI will search the knowledge graph for relevant information and provide clear answers.What You Can Do
Ask Questions and Get Answers
The AI answers your questions based on information stored in the knowledge graph. It summarizes and explains content from academic papers, patents, news articles, and more.
Request Research
Simply say “research [topic]” and the AI will automatically gather information and create a structured report.
Reference Past Research
Use the @mention feature to incorporate previous research results and uploaded files into your conversation for deeper exploration.
Screen Layout
On desktop, the chat and Knowledge Graph are displayed side by side. You can give instructions while viewing the graph and watch the graph update in real time as you continue the conversation. On mobile, the graph can be opened as an overlay from a button.Basic Usage
Sending a Message
Enter your question or instruction in the input field at the bottom of the screen, then click the send button. The AI will understand your question and provide an optimal response.The more specific your question, the more precise the answer you’ll receive. We recommend including both the topic and the aspect you want to know about, such as “Tell me about the heat resistance of semiconductor materials.”
Referencing Past Research with @Mentions
When you type ”@” in the chat input field, a list of previously executed agents appears. When you mention an agent, its information is prioritized in the chat history, allowing you to reference past research content. Usage Examples:@semiconductor-research Tell me about the companies mentioned in this research
@market-analysis-report Summarize the key conclusions
Delegating to Another Agent via @Mention
If your workspace has multiple Agents (AI personas with distinct expertise), you can address any Agent directly to delegate a question. Asking a single Agent:@research-agent Tell me the latest trends in the semiconductor industryThe research agent replies independently, and you can keep the conversation going in the same chat. Asking several Agents at once:
@research-agent @reviewer-agent What do you think of this proposal?When you mention two or more Agents, Snorbe reads the intent of your message and picks a flow automatically:
- Independent opinions (e.g. “give me each of your perspectives”) → every mentioned Agent replies in parallel
- Sequential hand-off (e.g. “A drafts a plan, then B reviews it”) → a chain kicks off: the first Agent responds, then the next one picks up the previous reply and continues
@-mention another Agent in its own reply. That way a “researcher” can naturally hand findings to a “writer”, producing a multi-step flow without you orchestrating it manually.
Chain depth is capped for safety (default 10 hops), so runaway loops are prevented. Via the API,
maxChainSteps lets you tune this between 1 and 50.Asking Questions with Attached Files
You can upload files in chat to ask questions about their contents.- Click the clip icon next to the input field
- Select a file (PDF, Excel, and PowerPoint are supported)
- Enter your question about the file’s contents
Uploaded files are automatically added to the knowledge graph and will be referenced in future research as well.
Stopping Research
While research is running, a stop button appears next to the input field. Click it to interrupt the research immediately. Use this when the direction feels off or when you want to switch to a different instruction.Copying Responses
Use the copy icon in the top-right corner of any AI response to copy the content. Markdown format is also supported, so you can paste directly into documents.Benefits of This Feature
Low Learning Curve
No need to memorize special commands or search syntax. Simply speak naturally and you’ll find the information you’re looking for.
Context-Aware
The AI provides answers based on previous conversation context. Even when you ask follow-up questions like “Tell me more” or “Why is that?”, the context remains intact.
Seamless Research Connection
You can request full-scale research directly from your chat questions. Any questions that come to mind can immediately be turned into research.
Available Tools
When you send a message, the AI automatically selects and uses the most appropriate tool based on your input. You don’t need to think about which tool to use.| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
| Web Search | Searches the internet for the latest information — news, papers, technical articles, and more |
| X Search | Collects real-time discussions and trends from posts on X (formerly Twitter) |
| Browsing | Operates web pages directly to extract information. Supports sites that require login |
| URL Summary | Reads and summarizes a specified URL. Also used to read uploaded PDFs, images, and documents |
| Extract Related URLs | Automatically discovers and lists all pages and links within a website |
| Recall | Searches and retrieves past research results and memories stored in the knowledge graph |
| Report | Compiles research into a long-form document, report, or manuscript |
| Viewpoint Matrix | Organizes and compares multiple subjects in a table. Also supports adding to an existing matrix |
| Plan Mode | Plans and executes complex multi-step tasks incrementally |
| Custom Skill | Runs a specialized skill — either custom-built or from Snorbe’s official skill library — in a sandboxed environment |
| Agent Memory Update | Organizes and updates the agent’s memory based on the conversation. Context carries over to future research sessions |
You can also specify which tool to use by saying things like “search on X” or “summarize this URL.” If you don’t specify, the AI will automatically choose the best tool for the job.
Common Use Cases
As a Starting Point for Research
Even when your research topic is still vague, asking the AI questions can help you grasp an overview of the information. Ask “What are the recent trends in battery materials?” and it will summarize key points from relevant papers and news. From there, you can dive deeper into topics that interest you.Understanding Reports
Professional reports and patent documents can take time to understand. Use @mention to specify a file and ask “What are the key points of this chapter?” - the AI will extract and explain the main points. You can efficiently understand even lengthy documents.As a Sounding Board for Ideas
When considering new business ideas or research directions, you can organize your thoughts through dialogue with the AI. Ask “If we apply this technology, what markets might exist?” and it will suggest potential areas based on information in the knowledge graph. Turn time spent pondering alone into progress through conversation.Related Features
Information obtained through chat can be used directly for perspective matrices and structured report outputs.
