How to talk to an agent in the web chat: picking an agent, streaming replies, conversation history, and how anonymous chat differs.

2 min readUpdated 2026-07-07

The chat is where an agent comes alive. Here you choose who you're talking to, read replies in real time, and work with conversation history.

Anonymous or signed in

  • Anonymous chat on the home page needs no sign-up: up to 5 messages per hour, no saved history. After a few messages the platform gently nudges you to register to continue.
  • Personal chat in the dashboard requires sign-in but saves conversations, lets you switch agents, and isn't bound to a short session.

How to start

  1. Open the chat.
  2. Pick an agent in the switcher at the top.
  3. Type a message and send it.

Replies stream in as they're generated — you don't wait for the whole thing to finish.

Every personal conversation is saved in the side panel:

  • Search across conversation content;
  • Pin important chats to the top, rename and delete;
  • grouping by date;
  • a chosen agent per conversation.

Any conversation can be published as a link and shared — the recipient sees the thread without access to your account. The link is valid for 30 days and can be revoked any time. More in Chat.

When something's missing

  • If the reply is "in the wrong role" — check the agent's system prompt.
  • If the agent doesn't know facts — try skills with web search, or wire up MCP tools via the API.
  • If you're out of tokens — top up in Billing & tokens.
