SAIL Features

Model Switcher

The Model switcher lets you choose which AI model powers your conversations in SAIL. Different models excel at different tasks – some are better at creative writing, others at technical analysis, or up-to-date web research. Model Switcher ensures you're always using the right AI for the job. Click on model name to switch between different AI models for your conversation.

New Chat

Start fresh with a new conversation. Each chat has its own context, so when you click New Chat, you’re clearing the slate – great for switching topics or starting a new project.

Projects

Projects can be use to keep everything together. With projects, chats, files and instructions all in one spot. Perfect for ongoing work or just staying organised.

Conversations

Your Conversations panel is where all your past chats live. You can browse, search, rename or organise them into projects for easy access. In projects, each project contains its own Conversations section so your related work stays grouped together automatically.

Attachments

Upload files (PDFs, word docs) so SAIL can analyse and work with them directly.

  • Extract data, summarise documents, or edit text from uploads.
  • Great for research, content review, or technical analysis.
  • You can also ask follow-up questions about your files.

Knowledge Bases

Knowledge Bases are a tool which expand SAIL's abilities. Each knowledge base is linked to your chat, helping you work smarter. The ASK tool runs lookups on documents such as policies and university pages. The MARP tool searches the University’s policies, regulations, and procedures to link you to the information you're searching for.

Dictate

Dictate lets you interact with SAIL by speaking instead of typing. All voice processing in SAIL is performed locally on your device.

Voice Mode

Voice Mode enables natural, hands-free conversations with SAIL. Simply speak your questions and hear responses read back to you – perfect for multitasking. All voice processing happens locally on your device and is never sent to a server.

Promptions

Promptions (prompts + options) combine what you type with dynamic, clickable controls that let you precisely guide AI responses. Instead of rewriting prompts repeatedly, you adjust settings like detail level, tone, format, and focus area - the system automatically generates relevant options based on your specific question, making it faster and easier to get exactly the response you need.

Meeting Notes

Capture your meeting notes by dictating in real-time or pasting existing notes, then instantly choose a quick action:

  • Quick Summary (concise overview of key points)
  • Detailed Notes (comprehensive organised record with sections for topics, decisions, and next steps)
  • Compile Actions (extract all action items, tasks, and to-dos with assignees and deadlines into a clear list).

Study Planner

The Study Planner agent accesses your timetable to help you organise your academic schedule. It can view your classes and lectures to suggest optimal study times, identify free blocks for group work or assignments, create personalised study schedules around your existing commitments, and help balance workload across the week by analysing gaps in your timetable - making it easier to manage your time effectively without manually tracking everything yourself.
