Companion & chat
How chat works
Openers, context, memories, and what the companion knows.
Opening the conversation
When you open Chat, WOODS may speak first with a proactive opener — a message based on your time of day, upcoming deadlines, recent mood, and module progress. This is not a generic “How can I help?” — it references your actual week when context exists.
What shapes each reply
- Your profile — University, year, course, country.
- Companion personality — Elias, Mira, Theo, or Lea style.
- Conversation history — Recent messages in this thread.
- Journey context — Academic events, tasks due, emotional patterns.
- Time of day — Morning energy vs late-night calm.
- Integrations — Calendar and email insights when connected.
Suggested replies
WOODS offers quick-reply chips so you can continue naturally (“sure”, “let’s do it”, “not now”) without retyping. The companion interprets short affirmations as consent to proceed with a suggested action.
Memories
Important details from onboarding and past chats can inform future tone — gentler after heavy weeks, more direct before exams. Memories are scoped to your account and used to personalise support, not to train public models.
