AI Chat

AI Chat is your built-in assistant for resume updates, job-specific prep, and interview guidance. Optional Connectors in Settings (Gmail, Hunter, Apollo, and built-in tools) expand what chat can do.

AI Chat overview

This page combines conversation history (left) and active chat (right), so you can switch between chats quickly and keep context.

How to use​

  1. Open AI Chat from the left navigation.
  2. Click New Chat to start from a job-linked resume or a resume-only context.
  3. Ask your question in the message box (for example: resume feedback, interview prep, job gap analysis).
  4. Review AI responses and copy useful outputs.
  5. Continue the thread with follow-up prompts for better results.

Start Chat is enabled only after you select an item.

Active conversation view​

The active chat panel includes:

  • Conversation header with title and optional Job Analysis tag.
  • Message timeline for user and AI responses.
  • Markdown-formatted answers for structured guidance.
  • Copy action on AI messages.
  • Chat menu (top-right) with delete option.

Quick suggestion shortcuts​

AI Chat quick suggestions

After the initial greeting in a new/early conversation, you will see shortcut chips like:

  • Compare with Job
  • Analyze Resume
  • Suggest Improvements
  • Research Company
  • Interview Prep
  • Tailor Resume

When you click any shortcut, AI Chat uses that built-in prompt and sends it immediately to generate a response.

Message input​

AI Chat input area

Use the bottom input area to continue the conversation.

  • Type your prompt in the text field.
  • Press Send (paper-plane button).
  • The input is temporarily disabled while a response is being generated.
  • The paperclip icon is visible in the UI for future/extended input workflows.

AI response features​

AI responses can include:

  • Provider/model badges (when available).
  • Task-type badges (for routed responses).
  • Web search indicator (when web search is used).
  • Quick suggestions for common tasks (shown in early chat states).

Some responses can also include action cards (preview/apply/dismiss) for assisted resume edits when that flow is available.

Conversation management​

  • Delete conversation: open the top-right menu and choose delete.
  • Search history: use sidebar search to find old chats fast.
  • Context persistence: each conversation stays tied to its selected resume/job context.

Tips and best practices​

  • Be specific in prompts (role, skills, company, goal).
  • Ask one focused question at a time for cleaner answers.
  • Use follow-up prompts like "make it shorter" or "give 3 options".
  • For interview prep, ask for role-specific questions and sample answers.
  • Copy final outputs into your resume or notes, then refine manually.
