## Chat with multiple tabs! Or no tabs at all :)

<br />

Up until now with Ask Steve your only option in the Chat was to chat with the current tab. This worked great most of the time, but didn't work when: 

- **You wanted to ask a generic question unrelated to the current tab, the same as if you had typed it into ChatGPT or Gemini**. Steve would say he couldn't find the answer because it wasn't in the current tab. So then you'd have to go to another window to get your answer, the very problem Ask Steve was trying to prevent!

- **You wanted to get answers or do comparisons that spanned the content of multiple tabs, whether they were web pages, PDFs, YouTube videos, etc.** Like if you had a bunch of content about panda bears open and wanted to run an Agent to generate a study plan on all of them at once. Or if you had 3 Amazon product pages open and wanted to ask comparison questions about them.

<br />
**Now you can!** Use the new selector at the bottom of the Chat sidepanel to pick exactly what you want to chat with:

- Chat with this Tab
- Chat with this Tab Group
- Chat with All Tabs in Window
- Chat with Steve (No Tabs)

## Now Steve has a mouth. And ears :)
We just released speech support in Ask Steve, so now you can launch your Agents or ask your questions with your voice, and can have the responses read back to you. It's like having a voice assistant available on every web page!

You can also easily set up Ask Steve to work in any language. 

To learn more, visit the [Speech](/docs/speech) page and the [Other Languages](/docs/languages) page. 

Launch Ask Steve Agents with your voice and have them read their responses out loud

Use Ask Steve's AI Power Tools for Microsoft 365


## Tame Your Outlook for the Web Inbox
We added Outlook for the Web integration and several new AI Agents to help you manage the flood of your incoming email. These Agents only show on Outlook web pages. Watch the videos below for details.

## Install the Outlook Agents
You can install all the Outlook Agents from the [Tool Packs page](https://quickstart.asksteve.to/packs.html). Ask Steve needs to be installed and enabled.

## Folder Agents
All these Agents work on **the first 100 unread email conversations** in the folder that you're currently looking at. The Agents can all be edited or copied. The Agents have access to the following data for each email conversation: 
* Subject
* Sender
* Snippet (the 1-2 line preview of the email that shows)
* Categories (the existing categories on the email conversation)

### Archive unread emails
You tell Ask Steve what you want, and it will try to find the conversations you specify and archive them.
<div style={{ position: 'relative', paddingBottom: '56.25%', height: 0, overflow: 'hidden', maxWidth: '100%', height: 'auto' }}>
  <iframe 
    src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/HDr0UK1KruQ?si=HgMA5V7t9qosz4QW" 
    title="YouTube video player" 
    frameBorder="0" 
    allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share; fullscreen" 
    referrerPolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" 
    allowFullScreen 
    style={{ position: 'absolute', top: 0, left: 0, width: '100%', height: '100%' }}>
  </iframe>
</div>
<br />


### Categorize unread emails
You tell Ask Steve what you want, and it will try to find the conversations you specify and categorize them accordingly.
<div style={{ position: 'relative', paddingBottom: '56.25%', height: 0, overflow: 'hidden', maxWidth: '100%', height: 'auto' }}>
  <iframe 
    src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/a57UHMi2DdA?si=yLVUwDhc5w3YqGPS"

    frameBorder="0" 
    allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share; fullscreen" 
    referrerPolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" 
    allowFullScreen 
    style={{ position: 'absolute', top: 0, left: 0, width: '100%', height: '100%' }}>
  </iframe>
</div>
<br />


### List specific unread emails
You could try to figure out the exact boolean search to get the subset of emails that you want (if it would even be possible), or now you can just ask for what you want using natural language.
<div style={{ position: 'relative', paddingBottom: '56.25%', height: 0, overflow: 'hidden', maxWidth: '100%', height: 'auto' }}>
  <iframe 
    src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/_1xAQZoC42k?si=iZpAfTobkk65i8Bp"

    referrerPolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" 
    allowFullScreen 
    style={{ position: 'absolute', top: 0, left: 0, width: '100%', height: '100%' }}>
  </iframe>
</div>
<br />


### Move unread emails to folder
You tell Ask Steve what you want, and it will try to find the conversations you specify and move them to the folder that you want.
<div style={{ position: 'relative', paddingBottom: '56.25%', height: 0, overflow: 'hidden', maxWidth: '100%', height: 'auto' }}>
  <iframe 
    src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/pfhUVATut9Y?si=PGLd9OSzthWMqiki"

    allowFullScreen 
    style={{ position: 'absolute', top: 0, left: 0, width: '100%', height: '100%' }}>
  </iframe>
</div>
<br />


### Summarize unread emails
A user-customizable summary of the first 100 unread emails.

    allowFullScreen 
    style={{ position: 'absolute', top: 0, left: 0, width: '100%', height: '100%' }}>
  </iframe>
</div>
<br />


## Email Conversation Agents
All these Agents work on the email conversation that you're currently looking at. The Agents can all be edited or copied. The Agents have access to the following data for each email conversation: 
* Subject
* Sender
* Body (the contents of the most recent email in the conversation)
* Snippet (the 1-2 line preview of the email that shows)
* Categories (the categories on the email conversation)

### Draft a reply
Give Ask Steve your writing instructions and writing samples, as well as what you want your reply to include. It puts the drafted reply right in the reply box. It remembers the writing instructions and samples, so you only need to enter them once. And you can keep iterating until it writes the way you want it to.

## Tame Your Gmail Inbox
We added Gmail integration and several new AI Agents to help you manage the flood of your incoming email. These Agents only show on Gmail pages. Watch the videos below for details.

## Install the Gmail Agents
You can install all the Gmail Agents from the [Agent Packs page](https://quickstart.asksteve.to/packs.html). Ask Steve needs to be installed and enabled.

All these Agents work on **the first 100 unread email threads** in the folder that you're currently looking at. The Agents can all be edited or copied. The Agents have access to the following data for each email thread: 
* Subject
* Sender
* Snippet (the 1-2 line preview of the email that shows)
* Labels (the labels on the email thread)

### Add labels to unread emails

## Email Thread Agents
All these Agents work on the email thread that you're currently looking at. The Agents can all be edited or copied. The Agents have access to the following data for each email thread: 
* Subject
* Sender
* Body (the contents of the most recent email in the thread)
* Snippet (the 1-2 line preview of the email that shows)
* Labels (the labels on the email thread)

### Draft a reply
Give Ask Steve your writing instructions and writing samples, as well as what you want your reply to include. It puts the drafted reply right in the reply box. It remembers the writing instructions and samples, so you only need to enter them once. And you can keep iterating until it writes the way you want it to. Works much better than Gmail's built in reply drafting which generates really generic stuff.

### Save Events in Google Calendar
Run on any email or text selection to create Google Calendar events. Works much better than the "Create event" button in Gmail which can't do this at all.

### Summarize this email thread
You customize what you want in your summary, instead of having to use what Gmail provides (if Gemini is even available).

## Calendar Agents
Along with the **Save Events in Google Calendar** Tool above, Ask Steve can read the events that you're currently viewing in Google Calendar, so you can run any Tool or Chat with your Calendar. We have created one additional special tool that helps you find free time slots across all the calendars that you're currently looking at. 

### List free times
This Tool gives you a list of free time slots that you can send to someone. 
* It uses all the visible calendars. If you don't want a calendar included, uncheck it. This way you can find free time slots across multiple people's calendars.
* It limits itself to the current Google Calendar view: Day, Week, Month, Year, Schedule or your custom view. 
* If you're on the Year view or the Schedule view, it uses the data for the Week view instead. 
* This Tool is part of the [Gmail Tool Pack](https://quickstart.asksteve.to/packs.html), but can also be installed by itself from [here](chrome-extension://gldebcpkoojijledacjeboaehblhfbjg/library.html?skillId=google-calendar-free-time).

    allowFullScreen 
    style={{ position: 'absolute', top: 0, left: 0, width: '100%', height: '100%' }}>
  </iframe>
</div>

<br />
You can change the following arguments in the Tool Instructions: 
* **workingDays**: This defaults to Monday-Friday [1,2,3,4,5]. Each day is represented as it's day number in the week, with Sunday being 0 and Saturday being 6. 
* **workingHoursStart**: The default is 9am (9). Supported numbers are 1-24
* **workingHoursEnd**: The default is 5pm (17). Supported numbers are 1-24
* **timeSlotDuration**: By default you're given the options to pick 30, 60, 90 and 120 minute time slots, but you can change these to any numbers.

## Did You Know?
That Slack is an acronym for "Searchable Log of All Communication and Knowledge"? Or that it was created as an internal communication tool by the game company Tiny Speck while they were working on a game called Glitch. Glitch wasn't hitting escape velocity, so they pivoted and went all in on Slack.

And what a pivot it was!

You may also not know that Ask Steve can now write results directly into a public Slack channel or a private Slack group, which makes it super easy to capture and share content and quick thoughts as you're going about your day. 

If you're a Slack user, give it a try!
