Workspace quickstart

Go from an empty account to a useful, checkable technical answer in a few minutes.

Before you begin

  • Create and verify an account if you want the project to remain available across devices and sessions.
  • Choose one real decision with a defined boundary, such as whether a waste-heat stream can serve a district-heating load.
  • Collect the smallest set of governing evidence: temperatures, flow, time basis, boundary, costs, and source dates where available.

Run your first analysis

  1. 1

    Create the project

    Use a decision-shaped name such as “North loop waste-heat connection” and describe the outcome you need.

  2. 2

    Upload the evidence

    Add each relevant file. Wait for the upload summary; it tells you what was actually extracted and what could not be read.

  3. 3

    Ask the decision question

    Try: “Can this source reliably meet the winter load? Show the governing calculation, low/base/high cases, and what the files cannot establish.”

  4. 4

    Challenge the result

    Ask which assumption changes the recommendation, request the exact source values used, or introduce a contradictory constraint.

  5. 5

    Export only when ready

    Generate a report after the assumptions and evidence limits are acceptable. Exports and some advanced execution features require Plus or Pro.

A reliable request pattern

Decision requesttext
Decision: Should we advance this project to a site study?

Use: The uploaded operating data and cost estimate.
Constraints: 85 °C minimum delivery, winter design condition, 15-year life.
Deliver: A recommendation, governing calculations, low/base/high sensitivity, and the next measurement.
Do not claim: Equipment condition or bankable ROI unless the evidence proves it.

You do not need to choose a reasoning tier

The server adapts the execution budget to consequence, evidence, quantitative complexity, and requested work. Ask for the outcome you need; do not try to route the agent manually.
