What the narrator says
0:00Talk, or a text chat
You can talk to your Chief out loud, or type, from your phone or your computer, whichever suits the moment. This is Savannah Brooks, the Chief of the Ashford household, which is invented for this demonstration. From her main screen, Talk starts a live voice conversation, and Text chat opens a written one.
0:23Talk options: Conversation and Give details
Talk options set how she listens. Conversation is hands-free, back and forth, like talking to a person. Give details lets you speak through pauses without being interrupted, then press Done talking when you finish.
0:42Every conversation kept, and answers you can use
Every conversation is kept. You can search what was said, start a new chat, or carry on an earlier one. In a text chat, answers come back the way you would want to read them: a table you can copy into a spreadsheet, links that open, and phone numbers you can tap to call on a phone. A table of numbers can become a chart, with one tap.
1:09The Show menu
The Show menu sends Savannah a photo, a video or a file, or lets her see through your camera, live. Each one is filed privately in your Documents, where she can read it.
1:23Typing while she answers, and Talk and Chat in every tool
You can keep typing while she answers. Your next message waits its turn, or Send now stops her answer so yours goes at once. And in every tool, Talk and Chat sit at the foot of the screen, so you can ask about what you are looking at without leaving it. Talk or type, whichever suits the moment. PrivateChief.
