# How do I ask the AI assistant about my team?

In Kinmu, open the chat with the Kinmu button, choose a question under For your team or type your own in Ask Kinmu… and send it. The chat always shows that you are talking to Kinmu's AI assistant.

## If you don't see it

- The chat needs the **AI assistant** extension, turned on in **My company** › **Extensions**. Your company also decides who has access.
- **For your team** questions appear only when your company gives you access to the assistant as a manager.
- If you see “No credits this month”, your company has used this month’s credits. **View credits** takes you to **Billing**.
- If you see “I need your consent to use the AI assistant”, turn on **AI Assistant** in **My account**.

## Common questions

### Can the assistant make changes for me?

Yes, for some tasks. It always shows the change first and waits for your confirmation. You see “Waiting for your confirmation” until you confirm or cancel.

### What happens to my conversations?

The permission screen explains it. Your messages are processed by Anthropic (Claude), the conversations are kept for 6 months and your company can’t read them. You can withdraw your permission from **My account** at any time.

### How do I start a new conversation?

Select **New conversation**, the plus icon at the top of the chat. Your earlier conversations stay in **History**.
