Cobot Assistant (Beta)

Ask questions or tell the Cobot Assistant what to do, in plain language. It uses your real Cobot data to answer, build charts, and take action.

Written by Laura

The Cobot Assistant answers questions about your space and gets work done for you, using your real Cobot data. Ask how revenue developed per location, and you get a chart with the numbers behind it. Tell it to book a meeting room for a member or send payment reminders for late invoices, and it does that too.

💡 There are 2 ways to interact with Cobot in plain language:

Both are off by default. If you don’t turn them on, Cobot works exactly as before.

This article covers the Cobot Assistant. To use another assistant instead:

Turn On the Cobot Assistant

The Cobot Assistant is optional and stays off until you ask for it.

  1. Ask our Support Team to turn it on for your space.

  2. Once it’s on, open Cobot Assistant in the sidebar of your Cobot account.

What the Cobot Assistant Can Do

The Cobot Assistant finds and sorts your data, adds a chart where it helps, and shows the numbers it used so you can check them.

  • Ask: Get answers, charts, and trends, like revenue per location, free desks, or upcoming external bookings.

  • Act: Book rooms for members, create external bookings, send payment reminders, check members out, and more.

It also flags what deserves a closer look, such as a location whose revenue has been declining since last year. Ask follow-up questions to find out why. Once you know what needs to happen, the Cobot Assistant can take care of it.

What to Ask the Cobot Assistant

Start with one of these, then keep the conversation going.

  • How did revenue develop this month?

  • Which resources brought in the most revenue last month?

  • Which meeting rooms are free next Tuesday from 9am to 1pm?

  • Can you book the big meeting room for team Acme tomorrow, 8am to 5pm? Add a comment to not add apples to the catering.

💡Pro Tip: Name the location, team, or resource and include a time frame. The more specific your question, the faster and more precise the answer.

ℹ️ Note: Questions that go through all your members or teams, like comparing member counts over several years, can take a while to answer.

⚠️ Important: Some actions, like payment reminders, reach your members immediately. Review what the Cobot Assistant is about to do before you confirm.


What the Cobot Assistant Works With

The Cobot Assistant can do everything the Cobot MCP Server supports. The MCP Server is the connection that lets AI tools read and act on your Cobot data. We add new tools regularly, so this list keeps growing. A few examples of what it covers today:

  • Revenue and invoices: Track revenue by plan or resource, find late invoices, and send payment reminders.

  • Bookings and External Bookings: See which rooms and desks are free, and book for members or visitors.

  • Members: Look up memberships and check-in history, and check members out.


Hosting and Data Security

The Cobot Assistant runs on an open model hosted in the EU. Before any data leaves Cobot, Cobot replaces personal information (names, email addresses, phone numbers, and postal addresses) with placeholders. In the Cobot Assistant, you still see the real names and contact details in your answers.

In Claude, ChatGPT, and other tools: When you connect through the Cobot MCP Server or our official connectors, Cobot also replaces personal information with placeholders. Here, the AI tool only shows you the placeholders. If you want the tool to work with personal data, you can turn off the placeholders when you authorize the connection.
