Platform Overview

Projects Dashboard

Let's start by creating a new project in Stack AI dashboard. Click on the "New Project" button in the top right corner of the dashboard.

Templates

Create a Quick Start project to open a blank project, or browse through a list of pre-built templates. You can choose the "Chat with Knowledge Base" template to build an application where your users can ask questions on a knowledge base you've uploaded.

You can search for a specific application you would like to integrate with a Large Language Model, like "Gmail," or you can look through the list of use cases on the left side of the screen.

Workflow View

Once you create a project, you will see an interface with 3 main components:

Workflow View

• Canvas: the main component of the Stack AI tool, a 2D canvas where you can drag and drop nodes and connect them to build your workflow.

• Sidebar: a large variety of functionality blocks, also called nodes, can be found on the left hand side. These nodes represent components in the flow where data is received, processed, and returned from different services. Chat with Workflow on the bottom of the sidebar for advice on how to build or to learn about what an existing project does.

• Control bar: a set of commands at the top right hand side with buttons to 'Save' (save the current version), 'Run' (execute the workflow as it is in the canvas), 'Share' (share the current version with another Stack AI user), and 'Publish' (make your workflow available externally).

The Workflow View is where you can build your project, by dragging and connecting the necessary nodes to create your agent. Once you are ready to deploy your agent to users, hit 'Publish' in the top right corner. If its your first time publishing your project, you will be prompted to enter the Export View to choose an interface for your agent.

Other Important Views

Export View

By clicking the 'Export' button in the top left side bar, you will see a view with different interface options.

We offer pre-built interfaces for your AI chatbots that can be easily customized to match your brand's look and feel.

You can choose from a ChatGPT-style interface, a website chatbot, a voice interface, or deploy your chatbot via Slack, WhatsApp, or SMS. We offer the option to use Stack AI as a backend process, leveraging our APIs to send inputs, receive results, and build your own custom UI.

You will find different customization options in the Export tab (name, logo, colors, etc.). Configure a custom domain if required and protect your chatbot with SSO or password.

An URL is generated for you to share with your colleagues.

IMPORTANT: whenever you make changes to your project in the Builder View, always remember to click the Publish button. This will update the assistant's user interface.

Analytics View

Clicking on the 'Analytics' button in the top left sidebar will display a summary of your workflow usage.

This page features four graphs that provide an overview of workflow utilization, along with a complete list of execution logs. The logs include valuable information such as the execution status, runtime, tokens consumed, and the workflow's inputs and outputs. Additionally, you can filter the analytics by date using the selector in the top left corner.

Manager View

Clicking the 'Manager' button in the top left sidebar will take you to a view with all user conversations with your workflow. To download all conversations, click the "Download" button. To clear the conversation history, click "Delete".

Evaluator View

Click 'Evaluator' to enter the Evaluator View. This view allows you to test your agent on a batch of inputs uploaded in a CSV file. You can have the output be graded by another LLM, who will judge whether your agent outputs desirable results. You can also have the LLM compare the output of your agent to a gold standard answer, or make suggestions. Just edit the prompt on the right side of the screen.
