The Research guide

Open Research from the left sidebar, or press New Research for a fresh thread.

• Type in the box. Enter sends, Shift + Enter adds a new line.
• Use the paperclip to attach files, or the mic to dictate.
• When you attach files, they are listed above the answer as Answering with your files.

The GST selector at the top left of the header sets the domain for the whole app. Income Tax may show a Soon badge until your account has access.

Each chat is locked to the domain it started in. Start a New Research thread to ask in the other one.

Each answer opens with a header: the domain, the financial year, when it was updated and how many authorities were analysed. Below it you get:

• A Summary in a highlighted box.
• Interpretation & Analysis, with numbered sections, quotes from the law and tables where a comparison helps.
• A Practical approach section with steps you can follow.

The panel on the right, Authorities relied on, lists what the answer is built on. Each card is numbered and shows what the authority says, its type (Bare Act, High Court and so on) and, where it applies, its status such as In force.

Use the link icon to open the source.

The box under the answer says Ask a follow-up about this answer. Follow-ups stay in the same thread, so you can narrow an answer without repeating the background.

Under each answer you will find:

• Ask a colleague to review to send it to someone on your team.
• Draft reply to turn the answer into a reply.
• Copy with citations, so the sources travel with the text.
• Helpful to tell us the answer worked.

The left panel, Research history, lists earlier threads under All Chats, grouped by Today, Yesterday and Earlier This Week. Search them, or open one to continue where you left off. Each thread’s ⋮ menu has more options.

Use the button at the top of the panel to collapse it when you want more room.

If your plan includes it, Client Workspace lets you group chats into projects, each with its own New Chat. Drag a chat into a project to file it.
