Before you start
A few things to know.
Can I type instead of speak?
Yes. You can use text in Ace web chat. Voice is another way to ask when you prefer speaking.
Will Ace know which document I mean?
Tell Ace what you mean and provide the relevant context. If a document or image is not available, it needs that information before it can answer accurately.
Can I try Ace before choosing a paid plan?
