# AI Assistant

> Ask questions about your lease portfolio, accounting, and documents in plain language.

The AI Assistant is a chat sidebar built into Spacebase. Ask it questions about your leases, accounting, critical dates, and expenses in plain language, and it answers using your company's data.

## Open the assistant

Click the **Agent** button in the top navigation bar to open the assistant. It slides out from the right side of the screen and stays available as you move around the product.

* Type your question in the message box (**Message the AI…**) and send it.
* Press **Esc** or click outside the panel to close it.
* On mobile, the assistant expands to full screen.

When you open the assistant, it suggests a few starting prompts relevant to the page you're on.

## What you can ask

The assistant can:

* **Search and filter leases** — Find leases by name, region, property type, or status.
* **Look up lease details** — Pull financials, dates, contacts, areas, and more for any lease.
* **Track critical dates** — Surface upcoming expirations, renewals, and rent adjustments.
* **Analyze expenses** — Pull expense records, spot spending patterns, and convert between currencies.
* **Explore accounting impact** — Understand how a lease affects your balance sheet and income statement, and walk through modification scenarios.
* **Search documents** — Find specific language or clauses in your uploaded lease documents.
* **Build data tables** — Return formatted tables of your lease data that you can download.
* **Answer product questions** — Search the Spacebase help articles for how-to answers.

## Tag a specific lease

To point the assistant at one lease, type **@** in your message. A menu of your leases appears — choose one to tag it, and the assistant focuses its answer on that lease.

## Download reports

When you ask for a report or a table, the assistant can attach a CSV file directly in the chat. Generated files are saved to the conversation, so you can return to them and download them later.

## Citations

When the assistant references one of your documents, it includes a citation link back to the source. Click it to open the document at the relevant page.

## Providing feedback

After each response, the assistant shows a thumbs-up and a thumbs-down button. Use them to tell us whether the answer was helpful.

The AI Assistant is a new feature that we refine continuously, and your ratings help us improve it — the more feedback we receive, the better it gets.

If you notice a serious issue or error, reach out to your account manager or email [support@spacebaseapp.com](mailto:support@spacebaseapp.com).

<Note>
  The assistant is read-only — it queries and analyzes your data but can't create, edit, or delete leases, accounting records, or settings. See [Getting access](/ai#getting-access) to enable it.
