In the next version

Not released yet; these are the changes since 0.1.0b1.

Finding your way

  • The menu in five areas: Inbox, Today, People, Automation and Settings, with a bar at the bottom on a phone. See The panel at a glance.
  • Ask ChatPilot as a command bar (⌘K), and ? for the keyboard shortcuts.
  • A setup checklist on Today, What's this? on every Settings card, and this manual in the app.
  • Settings → Display: text size, light or dark, compact rows, clock, date order, the first page, how a chat looks, and looks of your own with Edit look and icon sets.
  • Your settings in one file: settings.json, with Undo.

Auto-answer

  • Autonomy levels per chat, person and tag, always-to-me topics, and one switch that stops it everywhere.
  • It only sends when it is sure, checked in code: how sure it is, what it rests on, and every figure in the reply.
  • A personal style for family and friends, templates it may send word for word, and writing first where you switch that on.
  • It learns from the answers you give to what it handed you, tells you what it talked about, and keeps a weekly score with Teach.
  • It can book a meeting at a free time in your calendar.
  • What ChatPilot did shows as lines in the chat.

Inbox and people

  • A chat's side panel with tabs (Person, Live data, Auto-answer, Discussion).
  • 🌙 Background chats: one daily digest of what's worth a look in busy groups.
  • Drafts and auto-answer know the person they write to and write the way you do with them.

Connected systems

Team mode

  • One ChatPilot for a whole team: sign-in per member, assigning and sharing chats, private chats, team notes, a hand-over when someone leaves and a team overview. See Set up team mode.
  • A team look from the owners, and a look of their own for each member (Settings → Display).

Account, reports and servers

  • Licence keys, checked on your computer.
  • Report a problem with screenshots and a blur tool, and your reports linked to your account on chat-pilot.ai.
  • Questions on your reports in Today → Questions for you.
  • Sign in to Claude Code, the Codex CLI or the Gemini CLI from the panel, and Sign in with Google for Gmail.
  • Your inbox in Claude Code and other AI apps (MCP).
  • On a server: the first start in the browser, HTTPS on your own domain, an install without Docker, an encrypted secrets file and a sign-in for a panel reached from another computer. See Install ChatPilot.
