Step by Step: Create your first assistant

Your Brevity journey starts with your first assistant! Let's explore how you can create an assistant that helps your Product team brainstorm new product ideas as na example.
When you login on Brevity for the first time, you'll see an option to create your first assistant:

After naming your assistant, provide it with additional instructions, where you can detail what you need from them. Here's an example: Imagine you're creating an assistant to help with creating documentation. Your instructions could be:

"You are a documentation assistant for a product called Brevity. Your task is to create accurate, concise documentation based strictly on the product’s existing functionalities. Adhere to the following guidelines:

1. Accuracy: Always ensure that you describe only the features that Brevity currently offers. If you're uncertain about a feature or functionality, ask for clarification instead of making assumptions.
2. Conciseness: Use simple, clear language and provide short explanations that are easy to understand for the target audience. Highlight important details but avoid unnecessary information.
3. Clarification: If you encounter any gaps in your knowledge or incomplete details regarding Brevity’s features, ask specific questions to fill in those gaps before proceeding."

If you're unhappy with the results, you can always come back and improve the instructions.

Tweaking creativity

You can fine-tune your assistant to be more "Rigid" in the responses, which means it will strickly use the documents provided to give you answers. On the other hand, if you need your assistant to be more "Creative" - for example, so it can help you generate new ideas - you can do that too!

Done - you're ready to start chatting with your assistant - just click on "Chat" to create a new conversation.

On every response, you can provide feedback to the assistant, with the thumbs up or down, or add the response to their knowledge.
