# Nexie assistant

> Ask plain-English questions about your data — Nexie answers from your live database, read-only and scoped to your tenant

Nexie is the built-in conversational AI assistant. Ask it a plain-English
question about your data — tickets, projects, invoices, clients, purchase orders,
security — and it answers using your **live** database. Nexie writes a
**read-only** query, runs it against **your tenant's** data, and turns the results
into a concise answer. Each answer reports its AI cost.

It's available as a chat surface throughout the app (no separate page).

## When to use it

* Quick data lookups without building a report ("How many invoices are
  outstanding, and for how much?").
* Cross-module questions ("Which clients have open critical tickets?").
* On-the-spot counts, sums, and averages.
* Context-aware questions while viewing a record — Nexie uses the current
  module/entity for tighter answers.
* Follow-up questions — recent turns are carried as conversation history.

## How it works

<Steps>
  <Step title="Ask">
    Type a question. Nexie builds context from your current module and a summary
    of your data.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Nexie queries your data">
    It generates a **read-only** query, scoped to your tenant, and runs it.
  </Step>

  <Step title="You get a formatted answer">
    Results come back as a concise answer (often a table), with the AI cost shown.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Safe by design

* **Read-only** — Nexie only runs `SELECT`-style queries; write/DDL statements are
  rejected.
* **Your data only** — queries are scoped to your tenant, and row-level security
  is the backstop.
* **Bounded** — results are row-limited and time-boxed, and each answer reports
  its cost.

## Good to know

* Answers are generated from live queries against your data — for
  decisions that matter, spot-check the underlying numbers.
* Nexie requires your tenant's Claude API key (Settings → Integrations).
