🗂️ ATTACH FILES Enhance your conversations by attaching files directly. Here are the file size limits: • Images: 5 MB • Audio files: 25 MB • Data files (txt, pdf, doc, json, etc.): 50 MB • Code files: 50 MB • Delimited files (csv, tsv, xls, xlsx): 50 MB

👥 COLLABORATE Tag people with @ in the chat so they can join the conversation, and if you want to share the conversation just use the three dots in the top right corner → Share the conversation

Dust in action

Now, let’s put this into practice.

1. CREATING A PRESENTATION QUICKLY

Not the best approachYou spend 3 hours structuring your thoughts and creating slides manually. ⏳ Time lost: 3 hours This could have been automated.

Let's try again!

The request made to Dust

Best practice! You instantly generate a structured, interactive presentation framework. ⏳ Time saved: 2 hours Result: A clear, structured presentation ready to refine.

The tool to activate

The result, which can be refined: to do so, simply ask Dust what you would like to change and it will update it for you

Dust allows you to generate structured interactive frames.You can then refine, adjust the level of detail, or rephrase as needed.

1. CREATING A PRESENTATION QUICKLY

Going Further - Prompt Quality Matters

Too vague... The result will likely be generic and less structured.

Let's try again!

Strong prompt! The more precise your prompt is, the more relevant and actionable the output will be.

2. INTERNAL QUESTION AND NO CLEAR ANSWER

It seems like you are still waiting for an answer...

Try Again !

Lots of scattered messages... It takes time to consolidate everything.

Try Again !

Partial information, depending on who is available...But we have no doubt this colleague is wonderful!

Try Again

Best practice! Dust searches across connected sources (Slack, Drive, Confluence, etc.) You receive a structured and synthesized answer. ⏳ Time saved: 2 hoursMental energy saved: significant Want to go further? Try it yourself! Ask a question to Dust (and where you want it to search) and check it answer!

3. USING OTHER MODELS

That's a bit risky! 🔐 Using a public profile (data security risk) ⏳ Losing time in switching tools ⛓️‍💥 Fragmented workflow

Try Again

Best practice!Dust is connected to multiple models (GPT, Claude, Mistral, Gemini). You can use them directly within the platform. Benefits : 🎯 Centralized workflow🔒 Enhanced security💥 No tool switching⏳ Time efficiency Dust does not replace models. It centralizes and secures access to them.

4. Optimizing youR calendar
