A chat is where you describe the work you need and review the result. Start with a small request, such as checking the rooms on one floor. Add the drawing or model it refers to, then check the connected application before sending.

1. Composer controls

Write your request in the message box. The controls beside it choose the AI assistant and the application it can work in. No apps means no design application is selected; choose your open Revit file here when you want Ideatura to work in it. This screenshot also shows the Direct mode; see Modes and access for that setting. Composer: 1 AI model; 2 mode; 3 connected apps; 4 request; 5 Attach file.

2. AI models

An AI model is the assistant that interprets your request. Open the model selector and read the short descriptions to choose one for your task. The example shows GPT-6.1 Sol with medium effort. Check the credit estimate alongside the choices; available options can change. Model selector with the current model list and thinking-level controls.

3. Thinking level

The thinking level controls how much reasoning you ask the model to use. A simple list of room names needs less reasoning than investigating inconsistent room areas. Open the submenu beside the model to see its options; this example has medium selected. Check the result whichever level you choose. Thinking-level submenu showing low, medium, high, extra high and max, with medium selected; no setting was changed.

4. Attach files

Use Attach file to add a drawing, photograph or PDF. Check its name and add a short request explaining what you need from it. This example asks about clear space around a WC. Image attachment and prepared architectural question in the Studio composer.

5. Skills and Guidelines

Open Skills for this message to choose instructions for your request. Guidelines holds standing conventions; skills provide particular methods. This example has Guidelines checked and no skill selected. Review your choices before Apply; changing this selection does not delete the shared instructions. Skills for this message dialog with Guidelines checked, skill folders and Apply; no skill is selected.

6. Pin context

Use Pin beside the prompt or in the viewer to keep a reference available throughout the conversation. Check its name above the composer before continuing. Attach adds material to the next message; Clone creates a Workbench copy. See Viewer actions. Pinned PDF reference with its file name visible above the conversation composer.

7. Send and stop

Choose Send to start. Follow-up messages help clarify the task: for example, “Use Level 01 only.” Use the square Stop button if you need to interrupt the work. Stopping does not undo changes already made in your model. Stop button visible while a request about the WC clear-space diagram is running.

8. Usage indicators

Hover over the ring to read Context window usage; the lightning indicator shows credits. Context measures how much information the conversation holds, while credits measure usage charges. Read the current values rather than treating them as the same limit. See Context window and Tokens and credits; account allowances and storage are in Settings. Context usage indicator and separate credits indicator beside the composer.
