Conversations

Use Conversations and Workspaces together

Many workflows benefit from using both Conversations and Workspaces, as each tool excels at different stages of analysis. Workspaces help structure and organize information, while Conversations provide an interactive environment for deeper research, follow-ups, and final deliverables. Workspaces are particularly useful for extracting key insights and preparing structured information, which can then be leveraged in Conversations for further analysis, verification, and summarization if needed.

Use both Conversations and Workspaces in sequence

Extract then analyze
  • Use Workspaces to extract key information, then move to Conversations for interpretation:
    • Workspaces help break down documents like, financial statements, tax filings, or audit workpapers into structured insights.
    • You can export findings and upload them into a conversation to analyze the results, ask follow-up questions, or verify details using authoritative sources like Checkpoint.
  • Export from Workspaces for further analysis in Conversations:
    • After using Workspaces to pull key numbers, clauses, or provisions from multiple documents, you can export this information to Excel.
    • You can upload the exported file into a conversation for further refinement, such as identifying inconsistencies, summarizing findings, or drafting an explanation for a client.
  • Structure information in Workspaces, then summarize in Conversations:
    • Use Workspaces to organize findings across multiple tax or audit documents, reports, or contracts.
    • Once the information is structured, you can export it and upload it into a conversation to draft a final summary, report, or client email that clearly communicates key takeaways.
