Overview of Pre-Built Tools & Abilities

​
Introduction

This short guide walks you through all the pre-built tools and abilities available for your assistant. These tools expand the assistant’s capabilities—helping it search the web, manage calendar bookings, send emails, and more. These are plug-and-play tools you can add directly through the platform.

​
1. Where to Find Tools & Abilities

  • Go to the right-hand sidebar inside the assistant builder.
  • Click Tools & Abilities, then Manage Tools.
  • You’ll see a list under Pre-Platform Tools.
Note: If you’re viewing this around April 15–20, 2025, version one tools will disappear soon—use Version 2 tools going forward.
