Brain
Everything Hubi knows and does for your team, in one place.
Brain
The Brain is everything Hubi knows and does for your team - the jobs it runs, the knowledge it works from, and how it behaves. Instead of re-explaining your business in every chat, you set it up once in the Brain and Hubi carries it into every conversation, channel, and automation.
Open it from the dashboard sidebar: Brain.
The Three Pillars
The Brain is organized around three ideas:
- Jobs - tasks you hand to Hubi. Each Job gets its own Slack channel and runs on autopilot once it is set up.
- Knowledge - folders of context Hubi pulls from: brand guidelines, product details, competitor notes, files, and anything Hubi creates or learns.
- Preferences - how Hubi behaves, set per folder, for you personally, and for the whole workspace.
The Brain home splits your Jobs into Active (set up and running on their own) and Needs setup (open one to finish setting it up), then lists your Knowledge folders below.
Folders and Files
Knowledge lives in folders you create and organize. Inside a folder you can add several kinds of files:
| File type | What it is |
|---|---|
| Text | A Markdown note |
| List | A bulleted list of items |
| Link | A bookmarked URL |
| Image | An uploaded image file |
| Document | A PDF, DOCX, or PPTX |
| Brand palette | Your workspace color swatches |
| Brand logo | Your workspace logo image |
| Social post | Images plus caption for social scheduling |
To add content: open a folder, click Add, pick a type, give it a name, and save. Brand palette and brand logo are workspace-wide - they live in your Brand folder and there is one of each.
To edit: click any file to open it in the side panel. Text opens a Markdown editor, lists let you add and remove items, links hold a URL and description, and uploads show a preview. Changes save automatically.
Drag files and folders to reorganize them, and select several at once to tag or move them in bulk.
Tags
Tags are labels that cut across folders so you can group related files no matter where they live. Add tags when you create or edit a file, then switch the sidebar to the tag view to see everything with a given tag.
Connect a Folder to a Slack Channel
Any folder can be linked to one or more Slack channels. When Hubi is mentioned in a linked channel, the folder's shared content is pulled into what Hubi reads before it replies - so a #branding channel can automatically draw on your Brand folder, for example.
To connect: open a folder, choose Connect to channel, and pick the channels. This is the same wiring a Job sets up for you automatically.
What Hubi Adds on Its Own
The Brain is not just what you put in - Hubi keeps it current too:
- Notes - Hubi writes down what it learns about you and your workspace. See Memory (Hubi's notes).
- Generated assets - logos, social posts, and documents Hubi creates are filed automatically into the right folder.
- Review queue - files Hubi generates or updates can wait for your sign-off. Switch the sidebar to the review view to accept or refuse them.
Privacy
Files and folders are either shared with the workspace or kept private to you. When you move a shared item into a private folder, Hubi asks you to confirm so nothing leaks by accident.
Plan Requirement
The Brain is available on every plan. Higher tiers raise how much workspace memory and content Hubi can hold - see Settings for what each plan includes.
