Chat Interface

The chat is the heart of Outsprint. Everything you do -- from looking up contacts to closing deals -- happens through conversation. This section covers how to use the chat effectively.

How the Chat Works

You type messages in natural language, and Outsprint responds with text, data, and interactive components. There are two ways to interact:

• Natural language -- Ask questions or give instructions like "Show me all deals over $50,000" or "Create a task to follow up with Sarah"
• Slash commands -- Type / followed by a command name for instant results, like /pipeline or /contacts acme

Pro Tip

You can combine natural language with slash commands. Run /deals to see your deal list, then follow up with "Which of these are at risk?" -- the AI understands the context.
