Chatmode is built around several core components that work together to deliver powerful AI chat capabilities.

​
Core Components

Chatmode provides a comprehensive platform for creating, managing, and deploying AI agents. This overview will help you understand the main components of the platform and how they work together.

​
Dashboard

The dashboard is your central hub for accessing all Chatmode features. Here you can get a quick overview, see recent conversations, and easily access your agents and environments.

​
Main Components

​
Agents

Agents are the AI assistants you create and configure. Each agent is powered by a specific AI model (like OpenAI’s GPT-4) and customized with prompts, tools, and training data to perform specific tasks. Agents are the core of your Chatmode experience.

​
Environments

Environments connect your agents to users. An environment determines where and how your agent interacts. The primary type is:
  • EMBED: Allows embedding the agent’s chat interface onto a website using an <iframe>.
  • ZAPI: Used for specific integrations (e.g., potentially WhatsApp).

​
Trainings

Trainings enhance your agents with domain-specific knowledge. By uploading documents, websites, or text data, you can teach your agents about your products, services, policies, and other important information.

​
Conversations

The Conversations section allows you to view and manage interactions between your agents and users. You can:
  • Review conversation history
  • Change conversation status (Active, Resolved, Archived)
  • Assign conversations to team members
  • Set conversation priority

​
API Keys

API Keys are used to securely store your credentials for external AI providers (like OpenAI). These stored keys are required for your agents to function.

​
Organizations

Organizations help you manage team access and permissions. You can invite team members, assign roles, and control who has access to different aspects of your Chatmode account.

​
User Interface Navigation

The Chatmode interface is designed for intuitive navigation:
  1. Sidebar Navigation: Access all main features from the left sidebar
  2. Top Bar: View your account information, access settings, and switch between organizations
  3. Content Area: The main workspace where you interact with the selected feature
  4. Action Buttons: Feature-specific actions appear in the top-right of each section

​
Platform Architecture

Chatmode uses a modern, scalable architecture:
  • Frontend: Built with React and Next.js for a responsive user experience.
  • Backend: Uses Node.js and tRPC for internal type-safe API communication.
  • Database: Structured data storage for agents, conversations, and settings (using PostgreSQL).
  • AI Integration: Direct connections to leading AI providers using the API Keys you provide.
  • Vector Storage: Uses a vector database for efficient retrieval of information from your Trainings.
  • Storage: Secure storage for related assets.
