How to Use It
Once connected, simply ask your AI assistant questions about your business. You don’t need to use any special syntax — your assistant will automatically select the right Endgame tools based on your question. For complex analyses, your assistant can chain multiple tools together — for example, finding an account, pulling recent interactions, and querying your data warehouse to build a complete picture.Account intelligence
