What the assistant sends and keeps
On this page
The assistant sends your task content to a model provider only after you have agreed, keeps conversations on your device, and counts every answer against a monthly allowance.
Before your first message#
The panel first shows what will be sent and to whom:
- the provider and model the owner chose, or the provider you chose with your own key,
- what may be sent: task titles and descriptions; project, section and label names; due dates, priorities and completion; comments; the names, types and links of attachments (never the files); names of members of shared projects; your display name, today's date and your time zone; and the messages you type.
In a shared project that includes text other members wrote. Select Accept and continue to start. Nothing is sent to any provider before you accept. If the provider changes later (the owner switches, you choose your own, or the owner stops allowing members' own keys), the assistant asks you again. You can withdraw consent in Settings → Integrations → Assistant.
Conversations stay on this device#
Conversations are stored only in this browser: never synced, never sent to other people, not in exports or backups. The panel keeps the last 50 conversations for up to 30 days. History lists them (also offline), New starts another, and Clear conversations deletes them (also Settings → Integrations → Assistant → Clear conversations on this device, which asks you to confirm). Signing out deletes them too. The server keeps nothing of a conversation after it has answered.
Offline you can read earlier conversations and apply or undo a proposal that already arrived; asking needs a connection.
Costs and limits#
Each answer shows how many tokens it used and how much of your monthly allowance that is ("1,240 tokens · this month 18% of your limit"); Settings → Integrations → Assistant shows the month so far. The owner sets the allowance (500,000 tokens per person per month by default). When you reach it, the assistant says when it resets (the first day of the next month, UTC). One answer at a time per person.
Answers on your own key are paid by you, so they do not count toward the allowance and are never stopped by it ("1,240 tokens · your key"); Settings shows them separately. The owner can choose to count them as well.
End-to-end encrypted accounts#
If your account uses end-to-end encryption, the assistant is not available: the server holds no key to your tasks, so it cannot pass them to a model, and relaying them in plain text would break what encryption promises. The panel explains this, offers no consent step, and links to Settings → Account → Encryption, where you can turn encryption off if you want to use the assistant (your tasks are then stored without end-to-end encryption).
Demo instance#
The assistant is switched off on the public demo.
