Introduction

Welcome to Magai, the all-in-one generative AI platform that offers access to the world's most powerful AI chatbots, image generators, video creators, and organizational tools. This guide will walk you through the essential features of Magai's chat interface, helping you get the most value as quickly as possible.

The Dashboard

When you first sign up for Magai, you'll land on the dashboard. This hub provides:

  • Quick access to your recent chats

  • Important announcements and updates

  • Access to your free perks, including the AI Academy (a learning hub with weekly content updates)

  • A link to join Magai's private Facebook group where users discuss AI applications and help each other improve

Creating Your First Chat

The chat feature is the most frequently used capability within Magai, and for good reason—it's where much of AI's power can be harnessed.

The Input Bar

At the bottom of your chat window, you'll find the input bar where you'll type messages to the AI:

1. Basic Usage: Simply type your message and hit Enter (or the Send button) to communicate with the AI.

2. Attachment Button: Upload files that you want the AI to analyze or interact with:

  • Documents (PDF, Word, text files)

  • Images (with vision-capable AI models)

3. Enhance Button: Improve your prompting with one click

  • The better your prompts, the better your results ("garbage in, garbage out")

  • Not everyone is a natural prompt engineer, so this feature helps by:

    • Taking your simple prompt (e.g., "write a social media caption for this image")

    • Transforming it into a detailed, effective instruction (e.g., "Provide a clear and engaging social media caption for the given image. Ensure the caption is contextually relevant, creative, and appeals to the intended audience. Include a strong call to action if appropriate and optimize for platform-specific character limits.")

  • Options after enhancement:

    • Undo: Return to your original prompt

    • Retry: Have the AI attempt another enhancement

    • Clear: Start over completely

4. Speak Prompt: Use speech-to-text for hands-free interaction

  • Works best in Chrome browsers

  • Mobile users can use their device's built-in speech-to-text feature

5. Settings Button: Customize your chat experience with options for:

  • Input Method: Choose between:

    • Enter to send, Shift+Enter for new line (default)

    • Enter for new line, Command/Ctrl+Enter to send

  • Disable Scrolling: Control the automatic scrolling behavior

  • Copy Format: Select how text is copied to your clipboard:

    • Plain text (no formatting)

    • Rich text (compatible with Google Docs, WordPress, etc.)

    • Markdown (ideal for WordPress and other platforms that support it)

Choosing Your AI Model

In the top left corner of the chat interface, you'll find a button that opens a list of available AI models. Magai offers a comprehensive selection of the best AI models available:

  • Models have different strengths and weaknesses for different tasks

  • You can switch between models at any time during a chat

  • Look for the eye icon next to model names to identify those with vision capabilities

  • Filter options let you search for specific models or browse by category (including image and video models)

  • Sort by moderated or unmoderated models

Working with Personas

Personas help tailor the AI's approach to your specific needs:

  • Access personas via the button at the top right of the chat interface

  • Choose from various roles like copywriter, programmer, or content strategist

  • Create custom personas with specific knowledge or tones for your unique requirements

Additional Features

The Magai chat interface includes several other powerful features:

  • Web Search Integration: Enable the AI to access current information from the internet

  • File and Image Support: Upload documents or images for the AI to analyze

  • Multiple Export Options: Save conversations in various formats

  • Rich Formatting: View and copy AI responses with proper formatting

  • Mobile Responsiveness: Access all features across devices
