🤝 Now Alter works on your terms

Give your AI assistant more context about who you are and how you like to work

👋 Hey everyone,

We've added Profile - a simple way to tell Alter who you are and how you want to work together.

It's pretty straightforward:

  • Tell Alter about yourself

  • Share what you're working on

  • Set your preferred communication style

Why? Because context matters. When Alter knows you're a developer who prefers concise technical answers, or a writer who wants creative brainstorming, it can skip the fluff and be more helpful.

We made a video to show you how we use it.

We’ll share some profile templates on the Discord communityhttps://discord.gg/gvCMmfBRWZ

Best,
Sam
