Full explanation
The AskTuring Guided Tour is an interactive onboarding tool designed to help you learn the core areas of the platform in just a few minutes. It launches automatically when you first access AskTuring and highlights each major section of the workspace.
You can also start the tour manually by clicking the three-dot menu in the bottom-left corner of your screen and selecting Take Tour.
The tour covers the following key steps:
Workspaces
Shows how to access your organization’s workspaces.
Each workspace contains its own secure collection of documents and indexes, helping teams or departments work independently.
You can switch between areas such as Legal, Finance, or Marketing depending on your focus.
Select Your Index
Explains how to choose which Index you want to work in.
Each Index is a private document library organized by topic, client, or project.
The tour highlights how to create a New Index or switch between existing ones like “Client Project” or “Internal Documentation.”
Index Management
Demonstrates how to organize and customize your Indexes through the Index Management menu.
This area allows you to:
Manage Files – view, move, or delete uploaded documents.
Email to Index – forward emails directly into an Index for automatic organization.
Build or edit Semantic Maps – define key terms and relationships to improve AI accuracy.
Schedule Tasks – automate recurring processes such as document updates or re-indexing.
Manage Index settings – rename or delete indexes as needed.
Public Interface – configure how your Index connects with external tools or shared views.
User Management – control who can access or edit the Index.
Account Settings – manage organization-wide preferences and integrations.
Review Release Notes and Terms – stay up to date with platform improvements and compliance policies.
This step emphasizes how AskTuring’s Index system centralizes control over your organization’s documents and permissions.

Supports multiple file types including PDF, DOCX, PPT, TXT, RTF, and MD.
Once uploaded, files become instantly searchable within your chosen Index.

The History section stores all previous searches, so you can easily revisit past queries and insights.
