Start Group Chats with Anyone

Overview

GroupChats are a powerful feature of BoodleBox. GroupChats enable multiple people, multiple sources of knowledge, and multiple GenAI bots to work together in a single conversation.

Key Things to Know about Group Chat

Anyone with the group chat link can join the conversation.
Group chats allow multiple users and AI assistants to collaborate within a single conversation.
Use “/” to direct messages to people instead of bots – If you want your message to go to the other users rather than prompt an AI assistant, start it with “/”.
