AgentGetting Started

Getting Started

The Agent (formerly Copilot) is available to all Vendo users with an active account and at least one configured data source.

Opening the Agent

  1. Log in to your Vendo account
  2. Click Agent in the left sidebar (sparkles icon, first item)
  3. The Agent opens in a split-screen view with chat on the left and a canvas on the right

Your First Interaction

The welcome screen shows three suggested prompts to get you started:

  • Build a churn prediction model — Creates a Python model from your data
  • Segment users by behavior — Analyzes user patterns
  • Explore my datasets — Lists your available BigQuery datasets and tables

Click any prompt or type your own question in the input field at the bottom.

Example: Exploring Your Data

Type:

Show me what datasets and tables I have available

The Agent will:

  1. Browse your BigQuery datasets
  2. List all tables with row counts
  3. Summarize what data you have (event data, user profiles, etc.)

You’ll see the Agent’s progress in a collapsible activity timeline that shows each step (browsing datasets, listing tables, etc.).

Example: Asking a Data Question

Type:

How many events do I have by event name? Top 10

The Agent will:

  1. Identify the relevant table
  2. Write a SQL query
  3. Execute it against BigQuery
  4. Display the results in a sortable table on the right panel

Example: Building a Model

Type:

Build a churn prediction model using my Mixpanel data

The Agent will:

  1. Browse your source datasets
  2. Inspect table schemas to find relevant columns
  3. Generate Python code for the model
  4. Display the model configuration on the right panel
  5. Run a preview to validate the output

Conversation History

Your conversations are automatically saved and can be resumed later:

  • Click the clock icon in the Agent header to see previous conversations
  • Click any conversation to resume it with full context
  • Click New Chat to start a fresh conversation
  • Delete old conversations with the trash icon

Conversations are saved per-user — other team members cannot see your chat history.

Tips

  • Be specific — “Show me revenue by month for the last 6 months” works better than “show me revenue”
  • The Agent is proactive — It will browse your data automatically without asking clarifying questions
  • Results persist in the canvas — The right panel keeps showing the last query result or model config until you start a new task
  • Use Enter to send — Press Enter to send a message, Shift+Enter for a new line
  • Switch models mid-conversation — Change the AI model from the dropdown without losing your chat history
