Manage conversations
Work with existing GovTribe AI conversations, source links, files, edit and share controls, PDF export, feedback, copying, branching, and response details.
Click GovTribe AI, or open GovTribe AI and choose an existing conversation.
GovTribe AI is available on Launch, Launch Plus, Growth, Growth Plus, and Scale. Usage may require credits; see Choose the right GovTribe plan.
Open an existing conversation
Existing conversations appear in the GovTribe AI timeline. Conversations assigned to a project also appear under that project in the sidebar. Open a conversation to review the prompt history, AI responses, source context, generated files, and message-level actions.
Use conversation controls
Conversation-level controls appear around the thread or in the conversation action menu, depending on the conversation status and your access.
| Control | What it does |
|---|---|
| Source | Opens the source GovTribe record when the conversation is attached to an opportunity, award, vendor, participant, or another supported record. |
| Automation | Opens the related automation when the conversation was created by a GovTribe AI automation. |
| Files | Opens the drawer for files created by GovTribe AI during the conversation. These are different from files you attached to a prompt. |
| Edit | Opens the edit drawer. Owners can update the conversation name, description, and tags, and review owner, created-date, and credit usage details when available. |
| Share | Opens the share drawer. Owners can create a share link, copy it, remove it, and open the shared conversation view. |
| Prepares the conversation for printing and opens the browser print window so you can save or print the thread. | |
| Delete | Opens a confirmation dialog before deleting the conversation. |
Review AI-created files
The Files drawer lists files that GovTribe AI created while working in the conversation. It can show file names, created dates, and sizes for visible AI-created files and tool outputs.
Prompt attachments you upload in the composer are saved as User files and are separate from AI-created files. Use the Files drawer when you are looking for outputs the AI generated, such as documents, spreadsheets, or other artifacts created during the response.
Edit conversation details
Owners can open Edit to update the conversation name, description, and tags. Use these fields to make important threads easier to find later, especially when a conversation supports a pursuit, proposal, agency research effort, or recurring workflow.
The edit drawer also shows ownership and created-date details so you can confirm where the conversation came from. When GovTribe has usage data for the conversation, Details shows Credits used so you can see how many credits that conversation has consumed. For account-wide usage, see Credits.
Share a conversation
Owners can use Share to create and manage a share link. The share drawer supports these actions:
| Action | What it does |
|---|---|
| Create Link | Creates a share URL for the conversation. |
| Copy Link | Copies the share URL to your clipboard. |
| Remove Link | Turns off the existing share link. |
| Open shared conversation | Opens the shared conversation view so you can inspect what the link shows. |
Before sending a link externally, open the shared conversation view once to confirm what recipients will see.
Use message actions
Individual prompts and AI responses include message-level actions when they are available.
| Action | What it does |
|---|---|
| Feedback | Sends thumbs-up or thumbs-down feedback on an AI response. Negative feedback can include optional written feedback. |
| Copy | Copies a prompt or response to your clipboard. GovTribe tries to preserve rich response formatting when the browser supports it. |
| Regenerate | Requests a new response for the same point in the conversation. |
| Branch from here | Starts a separate conversation from that response so you can explore a different line of work while keeping the original thread unchanged. |
| Follow-up action | Sends or prepares a suggested next prompt generated from the response context. |
| Work details | Expands or collapses available reasoning details, tool calls, and work summaries. |
Branching is useful when one response suggests multiple research paths. Keep the original thread intact, then branch from the response that should become a new line of work.
Understand response details
GovTribe AI responses can include supporting source links, generated files, follow-up actions, and work details. Work details can show reasoning summaries, tool calls, or other execution details when they are available for that response.
Use these details to understand how the response was produced, then verify important facts against the underlying GovTribe records before acting on the output.
