Introducing the AI Action Bar: your AI Agents, built right into Qomon

This guide helps you understand how to access and use the AI Action Bar in your Qomon workspace.

Written by Hendrik Giesecke

What is the AI Action Bar?

The AI Action Bar brings Qomon's own AI agents directly into your workspace.

There's nothing to set up, configure or install: it's ready the moment you log in.

Instead of digging through filters, reports and data, you ask for what you need in plain language, and the agent takes care of the rest.

It works only with the data already in your Qomon space. It doesn't browse the internet, and your data is never used to train AI models (see How the AI works behind the scenes below).

Today, the AI Action Bar includes three agents:

  • Search Agent: advanced, natural-language search across your contacts.

  • KPI Agent: custom, on-demand reports and dashboards.

  • Actions Agent: launch targeted field actions straight from the bar.

More agents will be added in the future.

💡 Important: Qomon AI is currently optimized for English and French. Other languages may also work, but performance can vary.


🤝 Why we built this

Our goal is simple: give you back time. Whether you're managing supporters, tracking donations, or coordinating volunteers, the AI Action Bar is designed to help you:

  • Save time on repetitive searches and manual reporting

  • Find information more easily, even across complex or layered data

  • Create targeted actions in a few words instead of several clicks

  • Get personalized dashboards built around the questions you actually care about

And because these agents are built and operated by Qomon, they're secure, protected, and tailored specifically to our political and nonprofit sector.


🤖 Meet your agents

🔍 Search Agent

Run advanced searches using everyday language instead of building complex filters.

Example: "Show my strongest supporters who we haven't contacted yet this month."

From there, you can turn that list into a dedicated email campaign or a specific action.

📊 KPI Agent

Create your own customized reports in seconds.

The KPI Agent can help you:

  • Analyze how a past action or email campaign performed

  • Track volunteer activity and engagement

  • Monitor donations, contacts, and actions over time

Example: Show me our biggest donors this year.

⚡ Action Agent

Launch targeted actions directly from the Action Bar, turning your data into concrete next steps.

Example: "Create a canvassing action for contacts in [specific area] who haven't been reached yet".


🔎 Where to find the AI Action Bar?

You'll find the AI Action Bar at the bottom of your left-hand menu, or by pressing ⌘K anywhere in Qomon.


📖 How it works

  1. Click Action Bar tab (or press ⌘K) from anywhere in Qomon.

  2. Type your request in plain language.

  3. The agent processes your request against your live Qomon data and responds directly in the chat window, often with a structured summary (IDs, counts, breakdowns, next steps).

  4. Follow up, refine your request or ask a related question in the same session. The agent keeps context as you go.

💡Important: AI can make mistakes. Review agent-generated lists, reports and actions before using them at scale.


🤔 What can you ask?

The AI Action Bar can help with most of what you do day to day in Qomon:

  • Searching and segmenting contacts

  • Analyzing and comparing actions

  • Tracking field activity (doors knocked, supporters called or met)

  • Reviewing email campaign performance

  • Managing contacts and tags

  • Setting up simple workflows

  • Creating or updating actions

  • Looking up petitions, forms and contact info

  • Checking your available credits and balances

A few examples to get you started:

  • "Show me my email campaign stats this month."

  • "Show me contacts that we've met who haven't signed up to our event."

  • "Build a report on donations received this quarter compared to last quarter."

  • "Create a targeted action for supporters in [area] who attended an event but haven't donated."

What it can't do (yet)

  • Send email campaigns or SMS.

  • Create email templates.

  • Edit existing workflows, filters or tags (it can create or delete them).

  • Search the internet or use information from outside your Qomon space.

💡 Good to know: each user works in their own individual session. Your questions and results stay tied to your account.


👁️ Choose the view that fits you

The AI Action Bar has two display modes. Switch between them at any time from the view menu in the top-right corner of the Action Bar, without losing your session or results.

  • Full screen: takes over the whole window.
    A left-hand panel lets you:

    • start a New session

    • Search in sessions

    • reopen past sessions

    The main area shows the agent you're using and a 'Try an AI playbook' section with ready-made prompts you can filter by agent.

    Best for longer reports, revisiting past sessions or starting fresh.

  • Side panel: docks the Action Bar on the right of your screen, so the page you're working on (a map, your contacts, a dashboard) stays visible beside it.
    Best for quick questions and checking results against your data side by side.

You can switch between these at any time using the dropdown next to your conversation title, without losing your session or your results.


🏃‍♀️ AI Action Bar in Action

Here's what the AI Action Bar looks like in action:

Example 1 - Creating a targeted action with the Action Agent

Prompt used: "Create a door-to-door action next thursday at 11 am on all my contacts in Swinton street".

In a few seconds, the agent:

  • Identified my contacts in Swinton Street and proposed a door-to-door action, starting Thursday 24 October 2026 at 11 am, targeting my 44 contacts.

  • The agent then proactively proposed 3 courses of action:

    • Apply filters to my selected contacts for a more targeted action.

    • Create a List to save these contacts in a filtered view.

    • Create an Action to create my action straight away.

  • As I chose Create an Action, the agent created a live, ready-to-assign canvassing action.

This is the Actions Agent's core strength: going from a plain-language request straight to a concrete, assignable action - no manual filtering or list-building required.

Example 2 - Building a custom report with the KPI Agent

Prompt: "Make me a dashboard of my most active users these past 6 months".
​

The agent returned a ranked leaderboard of top-performing volunteers in the last 6 months.

As a next step, the agent asked if I wanted a specific user breakdown or to look at team-level activity.

When I asked for a specific user activity breakdown, it displayed the following:

  • Number of actions completed and action breakdown

  • Contacts met with support level breakdown

  • Emails / Phone numbers collected

  • Actions participated by action type

Along with visual Dashboards to help understand the data in its context.

Instead of pulling this together manually from several reports, the KPI Agent will create a ready-made dashboard complete with analysis, that you can share with your team.


⚙️ How the AI works behind the scenes

What the AI Action Bar does

The AI Action Bar combines AI models from Mistral AI, a European AI provider, with Qomon's own technology, and it works only with the data in your Qomon space.

Here's what happens when you type a request:

  1. Understanding your request. A Mistral AI model reads your question and works out what you're asking for (a search, a report, an action).

  2. Acting on your data. Qomon's own system turns that into the right operation and runs it through Qomon's internal APIs, inside your space only.

  3. Answering you. The result comes back to you in the chat window.

What the AI Action Bar does not do

  • No internet access. The agents don't run web searches, visit external websites or send your data to the web. Everything they know comes from your Qomon space.

  • No training on your data. Your data, questions and results are never used to train or fine-tune any model, whether Qomon's, Mistral AI's or anyone else's.

  • No automatic retraining. Using the AI Action Bar doesn't change or retrain the models. They behave the same for every customer and don't learn from your account over time.

  • No access to other customers' data. Each customer's data is fully isolated, and agents only ever see your own space.


🔒 Security & data privacy

We know it's fair to ask how your data is handled when you use an AI agent — here's where things stand:

  • Your data is not used to train or fine-tune any model. Not ours, not a third party's.

  • Data is isolated per customer and per user. Agents only see your organization's data, and each user has their own individual session.

  • Data stays in Qomon's infrastructure. Your data is processed and stored in Qomon's own infrastructure.

  • Qomon is SOC 2 Type II and GDPR compliant, so the same data protection standards you already rely on for the rest of your Qomon account apply here too.

If your organization has specific compliance or security questions, contact our support team. We're happy to set up a call with our technical team.


👌 Using AI responsibly

The AI Action Bar is a powerful assistant, but you stay in control. Keep these points in mind:

  • Check before you act at scale. AI can misread a request or return an incomplete list. Review the contacts, figures and settings before launching an action or sharing a report widely.

  • Be specific. Clear requests get better results. Name the area, period, tag or action you mean, for example "this quarter" rather than "recently".

  • Insights are suggestions. Recommendations and labels like "Most active volunteer" are generated from your data to help you decide. They aren't official assessments of people.

  • Report anything odd. If an answer looks wrong, tell our support team so we can improve the agents.

Disclaimer: Just like any other AI tool, responses from the AI Action Bar may contain errors. Always verify important information before relying on it.


❓Frequently asked questions
