What can the chat assistant actually do?

It finds people and companies, adds notes, creates tags, triggers a sync, and runs the multi-step introduction flow end to end. When several contacts match what you asked for, it shows a picker so you choose. It is not read-only — it takes actions, which is why sends and edits are confirmed first.

Will the assistant send an email without asking?

No. Anything that sends email or changes your data is confirmed with you before it happens. Read-only lookups run on their own, but a send or an edit always stops for your approval.

Is the assistant the same in Claude and the Chrome extension?

The same capabilities power all three surfaces. The web chat, the Claude and ChatGPT connector, and the Chrome extension side panel share one engine, so what you can ask for in one you can generally ask for in the others.

Find & connect

The chat assistant

Ask NetworkOS to find people, log notes, and start introductions in a conversation — it takes the actions for you.

The chat assistant both answers and acts. It can find people, pull up a company, add notes, create tags, trigger a sync, and run the full multi-step introduction flow, showing a contact picker when several people match. It supports voice input and saves history, and anything that sends email or changes data is confirmed with you first. The same capabilities power the Claude connector and the Chrome extension.

Talk to your network

The chat assistant lets you work with your network in conversation. Ask it a question and it answers; ask it to do something and it carries out the action against your data — no clicking through screens required.

It lives in two places: the Chrome extension side panel, and Claude or ChatGPT through the NetworkOS connector.

What you can ask it to do

Find people. "Who do I know in climate hardware?" — it searches your contacts and shows the matches.
Pull up a company or intro path. Ask who could connect you to a company, or how you're linked to someone.
Take actions. Add a note to a contact, create a tag, kick off a sync, or update a record — just say so.
Start an introduction. The assistant walks the multi-step intro flow with you, letting you pick the people and confirm before anything is sent.

When several people match, it shows a picker so you can choose the right one before it continues.

History

Your past conversation is saved so you can pick up where you left off. Replies stream in as they're generated.

Chat vs. AI search

AI search is the best way to find and rank a list of people from a single description. The chat assistant is the best way to act — to go from finding someone to logging a note or starting an intro in the same place.
