Assistants
Super Assistants are reusable, AI-powered workflows that bring structure and consistency to your team's most common tasks
What Assistants Do
Assistants transform complex, multi-step tasks into repeatable templates accessible by your entire team.
Getting Started
To create an Assistant, click
Assistants in the left sidebar, then click + New Assistant.
You then have two options:
- Build your own: Enter a short prompt defining the desired outcome, or 'skip' to start from scratch for full configuration control.
- Use our templates: Select a predefined template. The Assistant will automatically suggest relevant connected Data Sources for that use case.
Assistant Elements
Each Assistant is made up of several elements that structure the output and guide the user.
When editing an Assistant, you can find these elements in the right sidebar. Click any element to edit it.
Assistant Name
What users see in the sidebar and main view.
Description
Explains the Assistant's purpose, helping users understand when to use it.
Welcome Message
The initial message users see upon launch, which also becomes the first request sent to Super, kicking off the workflow.
Kickstart Buttons
One-click, predefined prompts that help users begin the workflow quickly without typing.
Assistant Steps
Steps are independent actions the Assistant can run to make the workflow smarter. They do not run in a fixed sequence but activate whenever Super needs them to achieve the desired outcome.
Steps can perform various actions, including:
- Search in: searches connected Data Sources
- Read documents: reads selected documents in details
- Generate: generates content based on the instructions
In the Assistant Steps, make sure to fill the Instructions field otherwise the Assistant may not run correctly.
Slack Integration
Assistants can be bound to Slack channels. When a question is asked in a bound channel, Super uses the entire Assistant workflow (including its steps and context) to generate a response directly in Slack.
To bind a Slack channel to an Assistant, click Bind a new channel in the Bind to Slack Channels section at the bottom of the right sidebar while editing your Assistant, then select the desired channel.
Only one assistant can be connected to each channel.
Automate Workflows with Assistants
Super assistants work with both the API and Zapier , allowing you to use them in automated workflows.
Templates to Get Started
Super provides ready-to-use templates to get your assistant set up in seconds. These templates come with recommended prompts and context designed for common business needs.
You can also browse our full gallery of pre-built Assistant templates organized by department:
Management and Access
Any Super user can create and run Assistants. All Assistants are visible to anyone.
Permissions always apply. If a user cannot access specific Data Sources in Super, the Assistant will not access or reveal that content for them.
To delete an Assistant, hover over its name on the Assistants page and select Delete Assistant from the … menu.
Once deleted, it cannot be recovered. If it was bound to a Slack channel, removing or editing the Assistant will update the binding immediately.
Favorites
To favorite an Assistant, hover over its name and select Favorite Assistant from the … menu.
Your favorites will appear at the top for easy access.
