Watch it happen.

Actana Assistant is the conversational front door to your workspace. It plans, executes, and shows the result — calling Workflows, Knowledge, Tables, and Files as it goes. Streamed live. Sandboxed by default. Persistent across sessions.

Capabilities

Not a side panel. A first-class module.

Most "AI workspace" tools bolt chat onto a SaaS dashboard. Actana Assistant operates the workspace.

→ Conversational agent execution (1,000+ tools)
→ Real-time NDJSON streaming
→ Sandbox-backed work in isolated containers
→ File round-trip: upload, modify, download
→ Persistent chats with searchable history
→ Curated prompt templates for common tasks

How it feels

Three properties make this work.

1. Streaming

Token-by-token, tool-by-tool

Every step (tool call, result, sub-agent) is rendered live as NDJSON. No black-box spinners.

2. Sandboxed

Real work, isolated

Heavy work runs inside a Pi sandbox. Files round-trip. The agent never touches your app process.

3. Shared substrate

What you build is what you ship

The same runtime backs deployed agents and standalone Workflows. Promote in two clicks.
