Nine destinations sit in the sidebar and everything else is a keystroke away. One page, Activity, has no sidebar entry at all.
Getting around

The sidebar

The workspace switcher sits at the top, showing the current workspace with your organisation underneath. Below it are three quick actions. Home, Search (which opens the command palette), and your notification Inbox. The main list follows, in this order.
  • Agents. Agents that watch your sources and write up what they find.
  • Goals. The objectives you’re working toward.
  • Insights. The scored findings drawn from your evidence.
  • Actions. Suggested and in-progress next steps.
  • Briefs. PRDs and decision briefs.
Three more are pinned to the bottom.
  • Knowledge. Documents, folders and version history.
  • Integrations. The services you’ve connected.
  • Settings. Workspace name, logo, and preferences. See Workspace settings.
Your account sits below those. Click your avatar for the organisation switcher, the theme picker (Light, Dark, System) and log out. The current page is highlighted. Insights stays highlighted while you’re on a signals page, since signals and insights are two views of the same chain. Press Cmd/Ctrl+E to collapse the sidebar to icons and again to expand it, or hover the panel and click the chevron near its right edge. Home is the Dashboard.

The page with no sidebar entry

You reach it through a link or the URL bar.
The record of who changed what. Reach it from See all on the dashboard’s Recent activity widget, from All activity at the foot of your notification inbox, or from All activity next to the History section on an insight, goal or brief detail page (those arrive pre-filtered to that entity type). See Activity.

The command palette

Press Cmd/Ctrl+K, or click Search in the sidebar. Start typing a command or a search term. The palette opens on General. Copy URL puts a link to the current page on your clipboard, and Switch Theme leads to Light, Dark and System. Next comes Navigation, the same nine destinations as the sidebar. Below that sit your Documents and Folders, matched on both title and path. Type more than a word or two and three live search groups appear. Insights, Goals and Data Signals, each result showing its title and reference (IN-12, GL-4, SI-88). A Workspaces group at the bottom switches workspace, with the current one marked Current. Selecting any result takes you there and closes the palette. Escape dismisses it.

Reference chips

Entities link to each other through reference chips, small clickable tags carrying an ID. Click one to open the item. They show up in the daily brief, inside briefs, on action rows, in goals and in agent messages. Each type has its own prefix, so you can read a reference without context. Folders carry no prefix, so you reach those by name.

Switching workspace and organisation

Click the workspace switcher at the top of the sidebar for a list of every workspace in the organisation, each with its description, the current one ticked. Create workspace at the bottom starts a new one, which begins with its own setup conversation. The Workspaces group in the command palette does the same job in fewer keystrokes. Goals, insights, actions, briefs, knowledge, integrations and settings all belong to one workspace and never leak between them. Organisations are one level up. Switch between them from the account menu at the bottom of the sidebar. Squad sends you to that organisation’s default workspace.

On mobile

A pill floats at the bottom of the screen instead of the sidebar, carrying two buttons. A menu, and Ask your Squad for the chat panel. The menu opens a grid of Home, Search, Inbox and Knowledge. A divider follows, then the full list of Agents, Goals, Insights, Actions, Briefs, Knowledge, Integrations and Settings. Search there is the same command palette you get on desktop.

When the connection drops

Squad keeps open pages live over a single connection, so a teammate’s change appears in front of you without a refresh. Close your laptop, change networks, or wait out a VPN reconnect and that connection goes away for a while. When it returns, Squad confirms the network is genuinely carrying traffic before it reloads anything. A connection can report itself back seconds before requests actually succeed, and firing every query into that gap is how a page ends up quietly out of date. If that takes more than a moment, a message reads Some data may be out of date. There is nothing to click. Squad keeps checking on its own, spacing the attempts further apart the longer an outage runs, and the message disappears the moment your data is current again. Switch to another tab and it stops checking until you come back, so a laptop left open overnight is not sitting there retrying. You do not need to reload the page, and reloading will not make it faster.
