   The Hook

   Realtime Voice Control & Session Setup

   “Okay, sorry guys, but OpenAI real-time is really dope. Super scrappy demo of how it works inside of OpenWork, shipping tomorrow in the app. Could you open the settings? Got it. I'll open the settings now. Settings is open now. If you want, I can jump to a specific section like appearance, providers, extensions, or skills. Hello. Oh, wow, it works really well. Nice! I'm glad that felt smooth. Want to tweak anything else in providers while we're here, or jump back to another settings section? Voice session stopped. Jo, kriere du nye session? Got it, I'll quickly check what's available to start a new session. Done - I created a new session successfully. Want to name it or start drafting the first prompt? Create a task to remind me to send a message to Omar and tell him that real-time works really well. Okay, I'll set that up and get it sent. Cool, while this is happening, let's go into settings.”

   Feature Teaser

   Reminder Scheduling & Session Summary

   “Got it, I'll look for the connect provider option and open it. I don't see a "connect provider" action available from here. You can open the provider settings, which you're already in, but connecting a provider may need a specific button in the interface that isn't exposed as a semantic action. If you want, I can navigate you to related settings like extensions or skills. Hello. Go back to the main app and read out loud what the session told me about in the session view. Got it, I'll switch back to the main session and read what it says. It says: "Considering reminders and scheduling. I think I need to set a reminder since the user is asking to be reminded. I should probably figure out what capabilities the scheduling tool has, so I can use it effectively. It seems important to ask the user when they would like the reminder to make it targeted and useful. Let's clarify that detail before proceeding." Then it asks when to remind you, with options like in 1 hour, tomorrow morning, or tomorrow afternoon.”
