Question:
What is Sentienta?
Answer:
Sentienta is an AI collaboration platform built around persistent work. Instead of giving you a blank chat box, Sentienta helps you create Home conversations, Workrooms, agents, summaries, notes, Ideas, and connected workflows that accumulate around the problems your team is solving.

Question:
What is Home?
Answer:
Home is the simplest way to use Sentienta. Ask in plain language and Sentienta decides whether to answer directly, use an existing Workroom, or create a useful set of agents. Home gives you a synthesized answer first, with supporting debate available when you want to inspect how the answer was developed.
Learn more about Home.
Question:
How does Home create or select teams and agents for me?
Answer:
You do not need to build the perfect agent group before asking a question. Home can route a request to the current Workroom, use an existing context, add missing expertise, or create a useful set of agents when the work calls for it. You can also ask directly for a new role, such as "add a legal reviewer" or "bring in someone who understands pricing."

Question:
What is a Workroom?
Answer:
A Workroom is a shared space where people and agents work together around a topic, project, decision, or long-running problem. Workrooms keep the dialog, selected agents, notes, participants, summaries, and useful Ideas together so the work can continue over time instead of disappearing into isolated chat sessions.
Learn more about Workrooms.
Question:
How are Workrooms different from legacy Teams?
Answer:
Teams were the earlier way to group agents. Workrooms are the current collaboration model. Workrooms add a richer persistent workspace, participant sharing, Home integration, notes, Ideas, and better support for connected services. Existing Teams may still appear in older accounts, but new collaborative work should happen in Workrooms.

Question:
Can I invite other people into a Workroom?
Answer:
Yes. A Workroom host can invite other Sentienta users directly. Once a participant accepts, they can see the shared transcript, contribute messages, and bring selected agents they own into the Workroom, subject to the Workroom settings and any enterprise requirements.
Learn more about inviting participants.
Question:
What is the difference between a host invite and a guest invite?
Answer:
A host invite adds a participant directly after acceptance. A guest invite can be sent by a non-host participant, but the Workroom host still needs to admit that guest before the person becomes an active participant. This lets participants suggest collaborators while preserving host control over membership.
Learn more about Workroom invitations.
Question:
Can participants bring their own agents into a Workroom?
Answer:
Yes. A participant can add agents they own to a shared Workroom. Those agents remain owned by that participant. If a participant-owned agent uses Desktop Automation or OpenClaw, execution still happens through that participant's own bridge.
Learn more about participant-owned agents.
Question:
What are enterprise agents in Workrooms?
Answer:
Enterprise agents are organization-controlled agents that can be made available to Workrooms without assigning ownership to a particular participant. Enterprise access depends on explicit enterprise membership and organization policy, not just sharing the same email domain.
Learn more about enterprise agents.
Question:
What are agents?
Answer:
Agents are AI collaborators with a name, role, model, and instructions. You can create agents with different specialties, such as product strategy, technical review, editing, research, design, customer advocacy, or automation. In a Workroom, selected agents can debate, answer, create artifacts, and help move the work forward.
Learn more about agents.
Question:
Why do agents not always answer?
Answer:
Agents are expected to contribute when they have something useful to add. If a question is outside an agent's role, or if another agent has already covered the point, it may stay silent. If you want a specific agent to answer, address it directly by name or select it in the Workroom or Home agent list before asking.
Learn more about agent availability rules.
Question:
What does it mean when an agent is unavailable?
Answer:
Some agents can answer directly in the cloud. Others depend on a Desktop Automation bridge, an Enterprise Bridge, OpenClaw, or another service. If the needed bridge is not paired, registered, or online, that agent may be unavailable until the service connection is restored.
Learn more about availability rules.
Question:
What is a synthesis card?
Answer:
A synthesis card is Sentienta's concise summary of a multi-agent discussion. It gives you the answer without forcing you to read every agent response. When supporting debate is available, you can expand the card to inspect the underlying responses.
Learn more about synthesis cards.
Question:
What is Supporting debate?
Answer:
Supporting debate is the set of agent responses behind a synthesis card. It stays collapsed by default so Home remains readable, but you can open it when you want to inspect how the agents reasoned through the question.
Learn more about Supporting debate.
Question:
What are footnotes in a synthesis card?
Answer:
Footnotes connect important claims in the synthesis card back to the relevant part of the agent debate. They let you move from the concise answer to the supporting reasoning without losing the benefit of a clean summary.
Learn more about footnotes.
Question:
What are Ideas?
Answer:
Ideas are durable insights that Sentienta extracts from useful Workroom dialog. They help important points, decisions, objections, and patterns remain available across long-running work instead of being buried in a transcript. Ideas can resurface later when they are relevant to new questions.
Learn more about Key Ideas.
Question:
What is Command Center?
Answer:
Command Center is where you manage the operational side of Sentienta. It includes Workrooms, agents, notes, tasks, artifacts, desktop or enterprise automation settings, and administrative controls. Home is designed for simple use; Command Center gives you direct control when you need it.
Learn more about Home and Command Center.
Question:
What is Session Assist?
Answer:
Session Assist is the right-hand workspace that helps you manage the current discussion while it is happening. It keeps useful outputs, your notes, and operational signals in one place so you do not have to scroll through the full transcript to stay oriented.
Learn more about Session Assist.
Question:
What are Notes?
Answer:
Notes are your Workroom-level notebook. Use them to capture observations, next steps, selected text, draft prompts, or judgments you want to preserve. Notes are user-created and stay with the Workroom.
Learn more about Notes in Session Assist.
Question:
What are artifacts, tasks, and activity?
Answer:
Artifacts are durable outputs the group may want to keep, store, preview, or delete. Tasks show delegated work and execution status. Activity records present important events, decisions, and outcomes from the Workroom run.
Learn more about Workroom activity, tasks, and artifacts.
Question:
What is a Private Aside?
Answer:
A Private Aside lets a participant ask their own selected agents for private advice without adding that exchange to the shared Workroom dialog. The shared Workroom remains the source for public activity and artifacts.
Learn more about Private Aside.
Question:
How do I switch between Workrooms from Home?
Answer:
Home can show the current Workroom context and lets you move between Workrooms without opening the full Command Center. You can also use Home's natural-language controls to ask for a different Workroom, add expertise, or continue work in the selected context.
Learn more about Home.
Question:
What is Desktop Automation?
Answer:
Desktop Automation connects Sentienta to a local bridge running on your machine. This can let selected agents use local automation services such as OpenClaw, depending on how the bridge and agent are configured.
Learn more about Desktop Automation.
Question:
What is OpenClaw?
Answer:
OpenClaw is one automation service that can be connected through Desktop Automation or an Enterprise Bridge. Agents configured for OpenClaw can perform desktop-style tasks when the relevant bridge and OpenClaw service are running.
Learn more about OpenClaw and Desktop Automation.
Question:
What is the Enterprise Bridge?
Answer:
The Enterprise Bridge is a broker service for organization-managed automation. It lets approved agents use services such as Slack, GitHub, and OpenClaw while preserving approvals, role-based access, and activity records for governance. MCP-based tools are available to selected accounts through the limited MCP beta.
Learn more about the Enterprise Bridge.
Question:
What is MCP?
Answer:
MCP, or Model Context Protocol, is a standard way for AI systems to use external tools and services. Sentienta
currently offers MCP support through a limited beta for selected accounts. Availability, supported providers
and tools, and setup procedures vary by account. For enabled accounts, MCP services can be exposed through a
bridge so agents can read from or act in connected systems, subject to organization policy and human approval
where required. Contact Sentienta if you would like to participate in the beta.
Learn more about MCP Services (Beta).
Question:
How does Sentienta handle approvals for actions like posting to Slack or creating a GitHub issue?
Answer:
For actions that change external systems, Sentienta can require human approval before execution. The approval request shows the service, tool, target, and proposed action. If approved, the bridge executes the action and records the result in the Workroom and governance activity.
Learn more about Enterprise Bridge approvals and governance.
Question:
What does Enterprise Admin do?
Answer:
Enterprise Admin lets organization administrators manage trusted domains, members, service permissions, and activity records. It is used to control which roles can access services and to review what agents did across governed workflows.
Learn more about enterprise administration.
Question:
Can Sentienta read web pages?
Answer:
Agents can use web access when a request clearly requires reading or searching the web, subject to current product and organization settings. Some websites block automated access or require a private login, so a public URL may be needed.
Learn more about web search.
Question:
How do I get faster or more focused responses?
Answer:
Select only the agents you want to participate, address a specific agent by name when appropriate, and ask a clear question. For large or exploratory topics, use a Workroom so the relevant context, notes, and Ideas remain available across follow-up questions.
