# Nova

Nova is your AI-powered assistant built right into Proforge. Think of it as a team member who knows your entire system — ask it questions, have it look up information, create records, or run reports, all through a simple chat interface.

## What Can Nova Do?

* **Answer questions** about your customers, invoices, projects, and more
* **Create and update records** — customers, invoices, service requests — just by asking
* **Look up information** — "Show me all unpaid invoices over $5,000"
* **Attach files** — drag and drop documents into the chat for context
* **Voice input** — click the microphone and talk instead of typing
* **Share conversations** — send a read-only link to your team or clients

## Getting Started

1. Click **Nova Chat** in your sidebar (or go to `/app/nova-chat`)
2. Click **+ New Chat**
3. Choose an agent (like "Sales Assistant" or "Accountant") or start a general chat
4. Type your question or click one of the suggestion buttons
5. Nova responds in real time — you'll see it thinking and working
