Interface Overview

Main Chat Panel

The central area where conversations take place:
  • Message History: Previous messages in the current conversation
  • Input Field: Type your messages and questions
  • Send Button: Submit your message (or press Enter)
  • Streaming Indicator: Shows when the AI is generating a response

Model Selection

Choose the AI model for your conversation:
Best for: Complex reasoning, analysis, creative tasks
  • Highest quality responses
  • Best at following complex instructions
  • More expensive per token
  • Slower response times

Conversation Settings

Adjust the creativity vs consistency of responses:
  • 0.0 - 0.3: Very consistent, deterministic responses
  • 0.4 - 0.7: Balanced creativity and consistency (recommended)
  • 0.8 - 1.0: Highly creative, varied responses
Use lower temperatures for factual questions and higher temperatures for creative tasks.
Control the maximum length of responses:
  • 256 tokens: Short responses (~200 words)
  • 512 tokens: Medium responses (~400 words)
  • 1024 tokens: Long responses (~800 words)
  • 2048+ tokens: Very long responses (articles, code)
Longer responses consume more tokens and cost more.
Set custom behavior for the AI:
You are a senior software engineer specializing in Python. 
Provide detailed, practical advice with code examples.
Common System Prompts:
  • Code reviewer and mentor
  • Technical writer and documentation expert
  • Creative writing assistant
  • Research and analysis specialist

Tips for Effective Usage

Writing Better Prompts

Instead of: “Help me with Python”Try: “Help me optimize this Python function that processes large CSV files for better memory usage”
Instead of: “Fix this code”Try: “This Python function is supposed to validate email addresses but it’s not catching invalid formats. Here’s the code: [paste code]”
Instead of: “Write a function”Try: “Write a Python function that takes a list like [“apple”, “banana”, “cherry”] and returns a dictionary with counts”

Conversation Flow

  1. Start with Context: Begin conversations with relevant background information
  2. Build Incrementally: Ask follow-up questions to refine responses
  3. Use References: Refer to previous messages: “Based on the code you just wrote…”
  4. Clarify When Needed: Ask for clarification if responses are unclear

Troubleshooting

Possible Causes:
  • High server load during peak hours
  • Complex prompts requiring more processing
  • Large file uploads being processed
Solutions:
  • Try during off-peak hours
  • Break complex requests into smaller parts
  • Reduce file sizes before uploading
Possible Causes:

Solutions:
  • Check rate limit status in dashboard
  • Verify API key is active
  • Try a different model
  • Contact support if issue persists

Best Practices

Privacy Awareness

Avoid sharing sensitive information like passwords, API keys, or personal data in conversations.

Token Management

Monitor token usage in your dashboard to manage costs effectively.

Conversation Organization

Use descriptive names for conversations and organize them by project or topic.
