Using the AI Copilot

3 min readUpdated Apr 21, 2026

The copilot is one assistant you can ask anything during a call. Two shortcut buttons hand you a sharp next question or a drafted reply — anything else, you just type.

You're in control
The copilot never interrupts you. It answers only when you ask — tap a shortcut, type a question, or use a keyboard shortcut. Otherwise it stays quiet.

Opening the copilot

In your notepad, click Copilot to open it. It’s one assistant that follows your call — ask it anything and it answers. There’s a box where you can type any question, with two shortcut buttons above it for the asks you reach for most.

Ask it anything

The box is the heart of it — type any question and the answer streams back. Because it’s heard the whole call, it’s the one for the things you’d rather not ask out loud:

  • “What did that acronym mean?”
  • “Is what they just said true?”
  • “Tell me what they meant by that.”

It isn’t limited to the call, either — ask a general-knowledge or web-search question (“what are typical payment terms for a contract like this?”) and it answers that directly, in formatted text.

Two shortcuts for quick help

The two buttons above the box are just shortcuts — quick ways to get the most common help without typing. Each one also has a keyboard shortcut:

What should I ask?
⌘ / Ctrl + Shift + S
What should I answer?
⌘ / Ctrl + Shift + A

What should I ask? hands you one sharp follow-up to ask next, based on where the conversation just went — something specific, not a generic “tell me more.” It draws on your note template and anything you’ve attached for context. Handy when:

  • You got a vague answer and want to go deeper.
  • You’ve run out of things to ask.
  • You want to sound informed on a topic outside your own expertise.

What should I answer? is for when someone asks youa question. The copilot works out what they asked and drafts a reply you can read back, grounded in whatever you’ve attached. For public, factual questions it can pull in a quick web search.

Read, don't parrot
Treat the draft as a starting point and put it in your own words. People notice when someone suddenly starts talking like a chatbot.

If it can’t tell what was asked — or the only question it hears is one you asked — it says so rather than guess.

Choosing your model

You can choose which AI powers the copilot. Next to where you type there’s a small menu with three levels:

Fast
Answers land almost instantly, so it keeps pace with a live conversation. The default, on every plan.
Balanced
A clear step up — sharper follow-ups and more nuanced answers, and it holds its own on technical or unfamiliar ground. Paid plans.
Thinking
Our most capable model. It reasons more deeply before answering — the one for high-stakes calls where you want the sharpest read in the room. Paid plans.

At each level you can pick an OpenAI or a Claude model. During a call, levels your plan doesn’t include are greyed out — you can upgrade later from the app.

It stays out of your way

The copilot never volunteers anything mid-call — no pop-ups, no suggestions you didn’t ask for. It answers only when you tap a button, type in the box, or use a shortcut. Early on there may be little for it to work with; give it a minute of conversation and its answers sharpen.
