Chat Profiles: Organize Your AI Conversations by Context

Octofy Team·

The Cluttered Chat Problem

After a few weeks of regular AI use, your chat list becomes a wall of conversations. Work emails mixed with recipe ideas mixed with code debugging mixed with travel planning. Finding anything takes scrolling and squinting at conversation titles.

Profiles solve this by giving your conversations context and structure.

What Are Profiles?

Profiles are color-coded categories for your chats. Create profiles for different areas of your life or work, and every new conversation gets tagged with the active profile.

How People Use Them

By domain

  • Work: Client communications, reports, analysis
  • Personal: Recipes, travel, learning
  • Side Project: Coding, design, planning

By project

  • Product Launch: All conversations related to the launch
  • Q1 Planning: Budget, strategy, goals
  • Website Redesign: Copy, design feedback, technical specs

By role

  • Manager: Team updates, 1:1 prep, performance reviews
  • Developer: Code reviews, debugging, architecture
  • Writer: Drafts, editing, research

Filtering and Searching

Profiles aren't just labels. They're filters. When you search your conversations, you can filter by profile to narrow results instantly. Looking for that email draft from last week? Filter to your Work profile and it's right there.

Quick Switching

The command bar (Cmd+K) lets you switch profiles instantly. Start a new conversation in a different context without navigating through menus. Your active profile is always visible so you know which context you're working in.

Color Coding

Each profile gets its own color, making visual identification instant. Scan your chat list and immediately see which conversations belong to which context. No reading required.

Combined with Incognito

Profiles work alongside Incognito mode. Your regular profiles handle everyday organization, and Incognito handles the conversations you want to keep completely separate.

Getting Started

Create your first profile from the profile selector. Give it a name and a color. Start a conversation, and it's automatically tagged. As your collection grows, you'll wonder how you ever managed without them.
