Key Features

1. AI Data Assistant

The AI Data Assistant is your primary interface for engaging with Amorphic's AI capabilities:

Multi-Source Communication

The chat interface seamlessly integrates with different AI components:

  • AI Models: Query different models and ask questions on top of your files
  • Knowledge Bases: Query structured knowledge repositories with context-aware responses
  • Agents: Interact with specialized AI agents designed for specific business functions

Chat With Model

File Upload and Processing

  • Document Upload: Upload documents directly to chat sessions using the attachment icon
  • Multi-format Support: Support for PDF, TXT, CSV, TSV, JSON, XLSX, DOCX and MD file formats
  • File Q&A: Select a file and ask questions on top of it. This is available when you select the Model option for querying

Chat With File

2. Projects

Organize your AI work into project-based sessions:

  • Project Creation: Create new projects for specific initiatives or workflows that need to access knowledgebases or agents in a particular order or fashion
Note

Example: A customer support workflow might require: (1) First query a knowledge base to find product documentation, (2) Then invoke a refund processing agent if a refund is needed, (3) Finally invoke a follow-up agent to schedule customer satisfaction surveys. Create a project with these knowledge bases and agents, then add custom instructions like: "When handling support requests, first search the product documentation KB. If a refund is requested, use the refund agent. After resolution, use the survey agent to schedule follow-up."

  • Project Organization: Group related chats, files, and notes within projects
  • Project Management: Access and manage multiple projects from the sidebar

Projects help you maintain context and organization for complex, multi-session AI interactions.
