Manage conversations

Work with existing GovTribe AI conversations, inputs and outputs, streaming controls, message actions, conversation summaries, sharing, PDF export, 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, linked inputs, generated outputs, 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
Inputs and outputs	Opens the linked record, automation, prompt attachments, and files GovTribe AI created during the conversation. The compact stacked-files control shows the total number of available items.
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.
Settings > View Conversation Summaries	Opens a read-only recap of conversation turns when GovTribe AI has captured summaries for the thread.
PDF	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 inputs and outputs

Use the stacked-files control beside the conversation to open Inputs and outputs. On wide screens, it expands as a dock beside the transcript. On medium screens, it opens as a popover. On phones, it opens as a bottom drawer.

Inputs can include:

The GovTribe record responsible for the conversation, such as an opportunity, award, vendor, or agency.
The related automation when the conversation came from a visible GovTribe AI automation.
Files you attached to prompts. Saved attachments link to their authorized download.

Outputs lists files GovTribe AI created during the conversation. A ready filename is the download link. Each output also shows Ready or Processing status and how recently it was created.

Prompt attachments are saved as User files and remain separate from AI-created outputs. Sections with no items are omitted. If the conversation has no available inputs or outputs, the control is hidden. If GovTribe cannot refresh the list, use Retry; previously loaded items remain available.

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.

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. On a computer with a mouse or trackpad, the actions stay out of the way until you hover over the message or move keyboard focus into its action row. On touch devices, use the persistent ellipsis button to show or hide the actions.

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.

Control the conversation while GovTribe AI responds

After you send a new prompt, GovTribe places that message near the top of the transcript and follows the response as it grows. This keeps the new work readable without forcing the latest line against the bottom edge of the page.

Scrolling up, paging through the transcript, selecting text, using transcript links, or navigating to another result pauses automatic following. GovTribe keeps your reading position stable while more text, images, work details, or files arrive, and completion does not move you away from what you are reading.

When you are away from the live edge, Back to bottom appears as a down arrow beside the composer. Select it to return to the latest response and resume following. If you scroll up again, following pauses and the control returns. GovTribe also restores a meaningful position for each conversation when you reopen it in the same browser, unless a message link or search result sends you to a specific place.

The animated Dot Matrix beside the composer shows that GovTribe AI is active without adding another visible status label. Assistive technology still receives concise updates such as waiting, thinking, searching, responding, done, stopped, or error.

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.

Review conversation summaries

View Conversation Summaries opens a right-side drawer with a plain-language recap of eligible conversation turns. A summary can include what you asked, what GovTribe AI did, visible tool-activity context, date signals, and referenced GovTribe records.

Conversation summaries are read-only and are separate from the full chat transcript. They are useful when you want to skim a long thread before continuing, sharing, branching, or deciding whether the conversation contains reusable context.

Some conversations may show no recap yet. Older conversations, very recent turns, empty turns, and automation-scoped turns may not have a customer-visible summary available in this drawer.

Create a conversation: Start new chats and use composer controls.
Reuse prior GovTribe AI work: Continue prior research, reuse generated files, and use earlier context intentionally.
GovTribe AI memories: Review and manage reusable AI memory that can affect future conversations.
Settings and personalization: Control memory access, conversation recall, data access, verbosity, and instructions.
Automations: Understand conversations created by automations.
Pursuits: Track opportunities your team is evaluating after AI research.
