Chat Interface
Chat is the main place to ask Aethera questions, analyze files, work with project context, and generate outputs you can reuse elsewhere in your workspace.
Main Controls
Section titled “Main Controls”Model picker
Choose the AI model for the next response. Availability depends on your plan and credit balance.
Persona picker
Choose a built-in, private, or shared persona to shape tone and working style.
Reasoning control
For models that support reasoning, choose the reasoning level before sending.
Attachments
Attach images, PDFs, documents, spreadsheets, presentations, text, Markdown, CSV, JSON, and common code files.
Voice input
Use the microphone button to dictate a prompt when your browser has microphone permission.
Knowledge tags
Type @ to mention available documents and project context directly in the prompt.
Typical Workflow
Section titled “Typical Workflow”- Choose a model.
- Choose a persona if you want a specific voice or specialty.
- Attach files or tag documents if the answer needs context.
- Adjust reasoning when the selected model supports it.
- Send the prompt.
- Review sources, tool activity, reasoning, and attachments in the response.
Chat History
Section titled “Chat History”The sidebar lists recent chats and project conversations. You can open an existing thread, start a new one, search chat history, and continue from previous context.
When a chat is tied to a project, Aethera can use that project’s documents and instructions as part of the conversation.
Working With Files
Section titled “Working With Files”Attached chat files are uploaded for the current prompt and can be referenced by Aethera during the answer. Images can be previewed directly, and other file types are shown as attachments on the message.
For persistent workspace knowledge, upload documents from Documents or attach files to a Project instead of only attaching them to a single chat prompt.
