Companion Studio is where you talk to your Companion in the browser. You write what you want in your own words. Your Companion answers and, where it can, helps you carry the task through.
Companion Studio is in Alpha. Screens, names and what is available to your account can still change.

​
Before you start

  • You need a kombify account. See Open the Workbench.
  • What you can use depends on your account. If something is missing, it is not switched on for your account yet.

​
What you can ask

Describe your goal and anything that matters, like limits or preferences. These are the kinds of requests kombify itself suggests:
  • “Help me choose a first service for my Homelab.”
  • “Explain what I need to host my photos locally.”
  • “Help me plan a backup for my personal files.”
  • “Explain what stays local when I use StackKits.”
  • “Turn this task into a short plan I can review.”
  • “Explain how I can check that a restore worked.”
You can also ask questions about kombify and how to set things up or fix them.

​
Ask your first question

1

Open Companion Studio

Go to workbench.kombify.io and sign in.
2

Take the short tour

On your first visit a short tour shows where things are. You can skip it and start right away. You can start it again later from the user menu.
3

Write your request

Type your goal in the message box. One clear request works better than many at once.
4

Read the answer

Check it before you act on it. If you need more detail, ask in the same conversation.

​
Choose who you talk to

A switcher shows what you are talking to. Your Companion is the default. A Factory focuses the conversation on one area of your setup. You can also change how the answer is made, for example by turning on deeper reasoning or allowing web access, when those controls are offered to you.

​
What your Companion will not do on its own

  • It can be wrong. AI can make mistakes. Check important information yourself.
  • It does not skip your approval. Actions that change real systems can have real effects. kombify checks policies and trust levels first, and sensitive or destructive actions wait for your explicit approval. You can approve or deny.
  • It only does what your account allows. Features and models depend on your account and on what kombify has switched on.

​
If something goes wrong

  1. Reload the page and open your conversation again.
  2. If the answer does not appear, send your message again.
  3. If you see a message that something is not available, it is not available for your account right now. Try again later.
  4. If you cannot sign in, see Sign-in problems and account basics.
  5. Still stuck? Write to info@kombify.io. Say what you asked, what you expected, and when it happened. Never send a password.
