# Chat with Library

> Ask Your Library — conversational AI that knows everything you've saved

# Chat with Library

Ask Your Library is Resona's conversational interface — chat with an AI that has read and understood every article you've saved.

<Info>
  **Your personal research assistant.** Unlike generic AI chatbots, Ask Your Library only draws from your saved content, giving you answers grounded in sources you trust.

## What You Can Ask

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Summarize" icon="compress">
    "What did I save this week?" or "Summarize my articles about productivity"
  </Card>

  <Card title="Find Connections" icon="link">
    "What patterns do you see in my reading?" or "How do these topics relate?"
  </Card>

  <Card title="Search & Retrieve" icon="magnifying-glass">
    "What article talked about remote work?" or "Find that piece about habit formation"
  </Card>

  <Card title="Synthesize" icon="lightbulb">
    "What are the common themes across my leadership articles?"
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## Example Conversation

<Tabs>
  <Tab title="Finding Connections">
    **You:** What patterns do you see across my recent saves?

    **Resona:** Looking at your last 10 articles, I notice two recurring themes:

    1. **Async communication** — Several articles discuss working effectively without real-time interaction
    2. **Deep work** — Multiple pieces emphasize focused, uninterrupted work time

    Interestingly, "Building Remote Teams That Actually Work" and "How Jazz Bands Improvise Together" both explore coordination without visual cues — a connection you might not have noticed.
  </Tab>

  <Tab title="Quick Retrieval">
    **You:** What was that article about the 80/20 rule?

    **Resona:** You saved "The Pareto Principle in Practice" on November 3rd. The key insight was that 80% of results come from 20% of efforts — and the article suggested auditing your tasks weekly to identify high-leverage activities.

  <Tab title="Synthesis">
    **You:** Based on everything I've saved about writing, what advice comes up most often?

    **Resona:** Across your 8 writing-related articles, the most consistent advice is:

    1. **Write daily** — Every article emphasizes consistency over inspiration
    2. **Edit separately** — Don't edit while drafting; separate the creative and critical phases
    3. **Read widely** — Good writers are voracious readers

    The strongest source for these principles is "On Writing Well" by William Zinsser, which you saved in September.
  </Tab>

## How It Works

1. **Save articles** — Every article you save is processed and indexed
2. **Embeddings created** — AI converts your content into semantic representations
3. **Context-aware search** — When you ask a question, relevant articles are retrieved
4. **Grounded responses** — Answers are generated using only your saved content

<Note>
  Resona never hallucinates information. If the answer isn't in your library, it will tell you.
