Chat and files
Once you are signed in, the Locai App opens in chat. Replies are generated on your organisation’s Locai One, not on a public service.
The app can make mistakes. Check answers before you rely on them. That warning also sits under the composer.
Start a conversation
Section titled “Start a conversation”- Choose New chat.
- Type, or attach a file with the paperclip (you can also drag and drop).
- Send. Use the stop control if you need to cancel a reply in flight.
On an assistant message you can copy the reply or regenerate it.
Recent chats in the sidebar holds earlier threads. Search if the list is long. Open one to continue it.
Models and thinking
Section titled “Models and thinking”The composer shows which model you are using. Pick any model that is loaded on this appliance. If the list is empty, an administrator needs to load one in the Admin Console.
Think (extended reasoning) asks the model to reason before it answers. Leave it off when you want a direct reply. Streaming and non-streaming both work; you will see Thinking… while a reasoned reply is in progress.
Files lists attachments from chat and files the assistant exported. Download to your computer, or delete. A quota bar shows how much you are using.
Empty state: No files yet. Attach something in chat first.
Treat anything here as organisation data. Do not put secrets in chat that you would not put in email.
If chat fails
Section titled “If chat fails”- Confirm you are still on the office network.
- Open Settings → Connection and check you are on the right appliance.
- Ask an administrator to confirm a model is loaded and healthy in the Admin Console.
