Using AI to dive deeper into content allows you to explore additional insights, perspectives, and explanations beyond what is initially presented. It serves as a valuable resource for comprehensive understanding, clarification of complex concepts, and discovering further connections or related information.
Mindstone's Investigator helps you take this deep dive into content from your Library.

What can you ask?
Ask for a Summary
You can request a summary of a specific piece of text that you've selected from an article. Use this to generate a concise synopsis, to help you get a quick comprehension and extraction of essential information from the selected text.
Ask for a Definition or Explanation
You can request a definition or explanation of a specific piece of text that you've selected from an article. Use this to obtain clear and informative explanations, helping you to better understand complex concepts or unfamiliar terms within the chosen text.
Ask an AI-Generated Question for Extra Insight
The Investigator gives you the option to delve deeper into a selected piece of text, beyond what's in the content itself. By presenting you with two generated questions to choose from, it enables you to explore the text further and gain deeper insights by focusing on specific aspects or perspectives of the content.
Save to Notes & Give Feedback
If you find the response from Investigator helpful, and want to save it for future reference, at the end of the dialogue you can ask Investigator to save it as a note. It will appear along side all your other inline notes for that highlight.
You can also let Investigator know if the response was helpful, after you've decided whether or not to save it as an inline note.
Over time, Investigator will learn from its responses and provide you with more helpful answers every time you chat.
