ALK - Chat page

​
Overview

Chat is ALK’s AI-powered question and answer interface. It lets you search for answers across your connected sources and uploaded documents by typing natural language questions.
Chat responds in the language context of your workspace. The greeting on the home screen rotates across languages as a reflection of ALK’s focus on emerging markets.

​
Capabilities of Chat

  • Chat can search your indexed documents and knowledge base.
  • When the relevant source is enabled, Chat can query structured data, search the public web for current information, or work with connected apps such as email, calendars, and Notion.
  • The sources you select determine which capabilities are available for that conversation. Chat does not claim to have accessed a source that is not connected or selected.
  • Each session starts fresh; Chat does not carry conversation context between separate sessions.

​
Inline citations

When ALK can connect a claim to a source, Chat shows an inline citation beside the relevant answer text. Open a citation to inspect the source details; when a source has a link, you can open it in a new tab. Section headings and other non-evidence text are not cited. Always check important answers against the original source. Citations help you trace an answer, but they do not replace your review.

​
Getting started with Chat

1

Ask a question

From the ALK home screen, type your question into the search bar that reads “Search for answers across your connected sources” and press Enter.
2

Choose your sources

Click + Sources beneath the search bar to select which sources Chat should query. Available sources are:
  • Microsoft OneDrive — documents stored in your OneDrive
  • Mono — connected bank account data
  • Acumatica — connected GL and ERP data
  • Google Drive — documents stored in your Google Drive
  • File Uploads — documents you have uploaded directly to ALK
  • Web Search — current public information from the web, when enabled
  • Connected apps — live data or actions in apps you have connected, when enabled
Toggle on the sources relevant to your question before searching. The available source types can vary by workspace.
3

Review your conversation history

For quick access to your previous conversations with ALK, look below the sources text — your previous conversations will be housed here. If no conversations have been started yet, the panel will show “No conversation history yet.”

​
Important notes

  • Web Search and connected-app actions are available only when those sources are enabled for your workspace and selected for the conversation.
  • Each session starts fresh. Chat does not remember previous conversations after you start a new session.
  • When you attach a file in Chat, ALK can read the attachment directly, including OCR text from scanned documents, without searching the knowledge base again for the same content.
  • Chat limits repeated knowledge-base searches in a single turn. Always verify important information from the original source documents.
