AI in projects
Each project has an AI chat sidebar that understands the context of your project. Open it to ask project-specific questions:

- “Summarise the progress this week”
- “What are the high-priority tasks assigned to me?”

Workly AI remembers the context of your conversation within a session. You can ask follow-up questions, and AI will understand what you’re referring to. Start a new session for a fresh context.
