Chat Features
Real-Time Streaming
Responses stream in real-time as the agent thinks and processes:

Visual indicators show when the agent uses tools:

These indicators help you understand what the agent is doing behind the scenes.

After each response, the agent automatically suggests relevant follow-up questions:
💡 Suggested follow-ups:

Asking Effective Questions
Be Specific

Vague: “Tell me about sales”
Context Helps
Good: “Show revenue by product category for Q4 2025”
Unclear: “Show revenue”
Build on Context
You: "What were our top 5 products last month?"
Agent: [Provides list]
You: "Now show their profit margins"
Agent: [Analyzes same products from previous context]
