Ask Paro for help
Quick answer
You can ask Paro — your workspace assistant — questions about your conversations and your clients, have it summarize discussions, draft replies, and carry out actions in your workspace with your approval.
Chat with Paro
- On your computer, open Oparo Connect.
- On the left, click Messages.
- At the top of the panel, click New chat with Paro.
- Ask your question. Paro answers using your conversation and your workspace’s data — clients, invoices, tasks, tickets.
Tip: In a topic, use the Ask Paro box to ask about the current conversation without leaving it.
While Paro works through a complex request, “Paro is thinking” shows its progress step by step.
Use quick actions on a message
Point to a message, then pick:
- Summarize — a short summary of the discussion.
- Extract tasks — turns the discussion’s action items into tasks.
- Draft a reply — prepares a response you can edit before sending.
Approve what Paro proposes
When Paro proposes an action that changes your workspace — sending an email, updating a record — it never acts alone. The action waits for approval:
- On the left, click Activity.
- Under “Paro approvals”, review the proposed action.
- Click View reasoning to read why Paro proposes it.
- For a proposed email, click View proposed email to read it in full.
- Click Approve or Reject.
Note: If you asked for the action yourself and you’re a manager, it shows as “Your request — to confirm” — click Confirm to proceed.
Talk to Paro by voice
- Open your Paro conversation.
- At the top, click Talk to Paro.
- Speak naturally. If you stay silent, Paro goes on standby — speak to resume.
In Paro options during the call you can adjust:
| Setting | What it does |
|---|---|
| Mode | Conversation for fluid real-time back-and-forth; Assistant when Paro should think, use its tools and act; Auto lets Paro pick. |
| Response time | Fast for short, immediate answers; Thorough when Paro should verify and chain every step; Auto to adapt. |
| Paro’s voice, Speed, Language | Pick the voice, speaking speed and language. Changing the language changes the whole system’s language. |
Note: Voice minutes are metered per your workspace’s plan. If the monthly quota is reached, voice pauses until the next month — text chat keeps working.
