# Overview

> What Symphony is, how to access it, the interface structure, and access profiles.

## What is Symphony

**Symphony** is a web-based **generative Artificial Intelligence** platform. It lets you chat with AI models and **specialized agents** — virtual assistants configured for specific tasks (development, marketing, legal, recruiting, internal communication, and more).

With Symphony you can:

* Chat with the AI by text (and by voice, when enabled).
* Attach files, knowledge bases, prompts, and tools to a conversation.
* Generate images, search the web, and interpret code (when those features are enabled).
* Create and use **agents**, **knowledge bases**, **prompts**, and **tools**.
* Organize conversations into **folders/projects**, pin them, archive them, and export them.

<Warning>
  Symphony can make mistakes. Always review answers before using them. The interface itself displays the warning: *"AI Symphony may make mistakes, always review answers."*
</Warning>

  </Step>
</Steps>

## Interface structure

The main screen is divided into three areas:

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="1. Sidebar (left)" icon="bars">
    Contains the main navigation and conversation history:

    * **Search** field for conversations.
    * Navigation shortcuts: **New conversation**, **Agents**, **Knowledge**, **Prompts**, **Tools**, and **Extension** (each item appears according to permissions).
    * **Projects** (folders) to organize conversations.
    * List of conversations (pinned and recent).
    * At the bottom, the **user menu** (your name and avatar).
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="2. Conversation area (center)" icon="comments">
    * At the top, the **model/agent selector** and the **New** button.

      The **New** button opens a menu with creation shortcuts:

      | Option               | What it does                                        |
      | -------------------- | --------------------------------------------------- |
      | **New conversation** | Opens a blank conversation with the selected model. |
      | **Agent**            | Goes to the new agent creation screen.              |
      | **Knowledge base**   | Goes to the new knowledge base creation screen.     |
      | **Prompt**           | Goes to the new saved prompt creation screen.       |
      | **Tool**             | Goes to the new tool creation screen.               |

    * In the center, the **conversation messages** (or suggestion cards when the conversation is still empty).

    * At the bottom, the **typing bar** (message box with attachment, features, and send buttons).
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="3. Contextual menus" icon="ellipsis-vertical">
    * Each conversation has an actions menu (rename, share, pin, export, delete, etc.).
    * The user menu gives access to **Settings**, **Archived conversations**, **Appearance**, **Help**, and **Sign out**.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Access profiles and permissions

Symphony operates on a **multi-company (multi-tenant)** model: each company has its own users, agents, and settings. There are three main profiles:

| Profile                   | Description                                                                                                                               |
| ------------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **User**                  | Accesses chat and workspace according to the company's permissions. This is the default profile.                                          |
| **Administrator (admin)** | In addition to regular use, accesses the **Admin Panel** to manage users, groups, and company settings.                                   |
| **Master**                | Platform management profile. Acts across **all companies** via the **Platform** section and the **Switch company** option in the sidebar. |

<Tip>
  **Why don't some options appear for me?** The visibility of each module (chat, agents, knowledge, prompts, tools, web search, image generation, etc.) is controlled by **company and profile permissions**. If a feature doesn't appear, it's probably disabled for your company or profile. Talk to your administrator.
</Tip>

## Best practices

* **Choose the right model/agent** before starting: specialized agents usually give better answers for specific tasks.
* **Always review** AI answers, especially data, numbers, citations, and code.
* **Use knowledge bases** so that answers stay aligned to your project's context.
* **Organize your conversations** into projects/folders so you can find them later.

## Frequently asked questions

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Does Symphony save my conversations?">

  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>

## Known limitations

* Feature availability depends on company/profile permissions — not every user will see all the features described in this manual.
* The platform depends on AI model configuration done by the administrator; if no model is configured, chatting will not be possible.
* Symphony is a support tool: AI-generated answers may contain errors and should be validated by the user.
