Overview
When you use Studio to generate a summary, draft an email, create a diagram, or ask questions about a meeting, those conversations are saved automatically. Here's where to find them and what you can do with them.
Where your chats are saved, Past Chats
Every conversation you have in Studio is saved in the Past Chats section, which appears below the main chat window in the Studio panel.
To access your previous chats:
Click the Studio tab on the right-hand side of your Vinyl dashboard
Click to Past Chats to see all previous conversations tied to that meeting
Click any previous chat to reopen it and continue from where you left off
Each chat is stored against the specific meeting it was created in.
Who can see your chats?
Your Studio chats are private to you. Team members who open the same meeting will not see your conversations, they only see their own. This means you can explore, draft, and iterate without it being visible to the rest of the team.
Working across multiple meetings
You're not limited to asking questions about a single meeting. You can open a broader Studio session and pull in multiple meetings at once:
At the bottom of any Studio chat, click the permanent link icon to open the full Studio workspace
From here, you can add multiple meetings to the context
Studio will draw on all selected meetings to answer your questions or create documents
This is useful when you want to compare meetings, summarise a series of client conversations, or spot themes across multiple sessions.
Saving and exporting what you've created
Studio can generate documents, diagrams, emails, file notes, and more. Once you've created something, you have a few options:
Copy to clipboard — copy the content and paste it wherever you need it (email, Karbon note, FYI document, etc.)
Download as PDF — available for most document types created in Studio
Save as email draft — if you've generated an email and have Gmail or Outlook connected, you can save it directly as a draft or send it
Can I push Studio content directly to Karbon or FYI?
Not currently. Studio chats and documents live in Vinyl, they aren't automatically synced to your practice management system. To get something into Karbon or FYI, you can copy the content and paste it into a timeline note manually, or download as a PDF and attach it to the relevant record.
We know this is something many customers want, the ability to push Studio outputs directly into Karbon, FYI, or other tools is on our roadmap. If this is important to your workflow, let us know via the chat in the app.
