Home and Ask Spodus·Updated Oct 16, 2026

Ask from any page

Open the Ask Spodus panel beside whatever you're working on with the Ask Spodus button or ⌘J, and ask about the record you have open.

You don't have to go to Home to ask a question. The Ask Spodus panel opens beside the page you're on, so you can keep working while you ask.

Things to know

  • On a record's page, a new chat in the panel is about that record. Its name shows next to New chat at the top.
  • An answer keeps going if you move to another page.
  • On a wide screen the panel sits beside the page. On a smaller screen it opens over the page.

Open the panel

  1. Click Ask Spodus at the right end of the page bar, or press ⌘J (Ctrl+J on Windows).
  2. Type your question and press Enter.

When the panel is empty, it suggests questions under Try that fit the page. For example, on a record: "What's still open with this company?" Click one to ask it.

Press Esc or click Close Ask Spodus to close the panel.

Use the panel's buttons

At the top of the panel:

  • New chat starts a fresh chat.
  • Chat history lists your past chats, with Search chats.
  • Thread options (⋯) lets you Open in Home, Rename, Pin, Copy chat or Delete the chat.

Open in Home moves the chat to the full page.

Ask from the search menu

Press ⌘K (Ctrl+K on Windows) and type your question. Click Ask Spodus: in the list, or press Tab.
