Artificial Intelligence

AI Palette

You can use Artificial Intelligence directly within Reflect to drastically improve your note-taking and writing. Think of it as a digital assistant you can call on at any time, and ask anything you think of.

Reflect’s AI palette now uses GPT-4, the latest model from OpenAI.

How to access the AI palette

To use it, first highlight some text, and then press cmd j (or control j on Windows). That’ll popup the AI palette. You can select from one of our dozen or so prompts, like ‘list key takeaways’ or ‘list action-items’. Alternatively, you can ask AI anything you’d like without highlighting text first.

What kind of things can you do?

We provide some ready-to-go prompts that let you do things like:

  • List action-items and key takeaways from meeting notes
  • Perfectly edit your writing
  • Generate article outlines from your scattered thoughts
  • List key takeaways from your meeting notes
  • Create summaries of articles
  • Fix grammar, spelling, and improve your writing
  • Save your own custom prompts
  • And more!

Save custom prompts

You can also ask the AI palette anything you’d like using the open text field, and save it as a custom prompt to quickly call on again later.

Start by expanding an existing prompt. You will be able to see exactly how we’ve instructed the AI for that prompt, then “clone”, edit and save your new one.

You can watch a demo of how to do all of this here.

Here is what an open prompt looks like:

The {{selectedText}} placeholder, surrounded by triple quotation marks, distinquishes your highlighted text from the prompt. Otherwise, your selected text could say 'actually don't worry about that' and it would break out of the prompt.

Chat with your notes

Reflect’s advanced search lets you chat with your notes using AI – it’s like talking directly with your brain!

If you have any filters selected within the search, the chat function will call on those notes specifically.

For example, you can:

  • Filter your notes by the #person tag, and then ask the chat information about people in your personal CRM.
  • Ask the chat about major themes in your notes, or ideas you had in the past week.
  • Search a topic like “painting” or “artificial intelligence”, and have the chat summarize your knowledge.

ChatGPT plugin

Reflect has a ChatGPT plugin that lets you save information directly to Reflect. You can combine it with other plugins to ask complex questions that are saved to your notes.

You can do things like save dream properties to your notes from Zillow, setup price alerts with Kayak, and have ChatGPT build Zapier workflows for you that interact with your notes.

To use plugins on ChatGPT, you’ll need a paid ChatGPT+ account. This will give you access to the plugins feature of ChatGPT, including the Reflect plugin.

You can see a walkthrough of how to install and use the plugin on ChatGPT here.

If you don’t use this feature, the security situation is the same as before - all your notes are end-to-end encrypted and nothing will be shared with anyone.

Do you, or OpenAI, use any of my data as training data?

We don’t use any of your data as training data. And we don’t store any of the requests or responses to OpenAI. OpenAI delete API request logs after 30 days, but please refer to their TOS for their specific retention policies.

‣

For free-trial accounts: 20,000 characters per day

For paid accounts: 200,000 characters per day

This includes both the prompt and the response.

You can bypass the cap on requests by adding your own OpenAI API key in the app’s preferences.

‣
How can I connect my OpenAI API key for unlimited use?

You can add OpenAI API keys for either GPT-3.5 or GPT-4. You must setting up a billing account through OpenAI – this is different than a ChatGPT+ account!

You can set this up here.

If you don’t yet have access to the GPT-4 API, you can join the waitlist here

Here is the process for adding your API keys once you have billing setup:

  1. Go to the API Keys page of your OpenAI account
  2. Create an API key (unless you have one saved already you want to use).
  3. Go to your Reflect profile preferences page and enter your key in the “OpenAI API Key” box.

That’s it! You can watch a video of how to do this here.
