Commands

Start a message with / and look something up at once: a local time, a rate, VAT, a place, a translation.

Start a message with / and a command, and the answer comes at once.

  • Other names for the same command: /? and /commands are /help; /geocode and /find are /place; /currency and /exchange are /rate; /zip is /postal; /lang and /sentiment are /language.
  • A command with nothing after it answers with its example. /time alone gives your own time.
  • A command that does not exist answers There is no command /x., with the list of commands.
02 · Finding a command
  • Type / as the first character and the list of commands opens above the message box. Every letter you type narrows it; a tap puts the command in the box.
  • The ? button in the chat’s top bar opens Commands: each command, what it does, and an example. Tap an example and it goes in the box.
03 · Free, or counted

Commands are answered at once on Opensolr’s servers, without the AI model, and cost no AI requests. Three can use your plan’s AI requests:

  • /translate: the AI model translates, 1 AI request.
  • /language: when the language cannot be told for sure, the AI model names it, 1 AI request.
  • /search: searches by meaning, 1 AI request, free when the same words were already searched by meaning.
