Chat that does the work

Files and Drive

Autessa Autobots work with your company’s files in Drive: they list, find, search, read, summarize and write them from the chat.

Autobots find, read, summarize and write your company’s files in Autessa Drive, and turn spreadsheets into tables, all from the chat.

The problem it solves

Why it matters

Company knowledge lives in files: pricing sheets, policies, contracts, exports. Finding the right one and turning it into something useful takes longer than the task itself.

How it works

How files and Drive works, step by step

  1. 1

    Ask about a file, or a pile of them

    “Summarize the pricing FAQ in one page” or “turn the leads spreadsheet in Drive into a table.”
  2. 2

    It looks through Drive

    The Autobot uses shell-style commands on your company’s files: ls, cd, find, grep and cat to locate and read them.
  3. 3

    It writes the result

    It can write a new file next to the original, or turn a spreadsheet into an AutessaDB table.
  4. 4

    Ask for changes

    Shorter, more formal, a different folder: just say so in the chat.
