The AI assistant (agent)
impressBox includes an AI assistant you can talk to in plain language to run almost any task — instead of clicking through menus, you just say what you want.
Where to find it
In the manage app at m.impressbox.eu via the chat button (it can be shown/hidden in User settings → "Show chat button").
Through AI tools that connect to the impressBox MCP (see impressBox MCP (for Claude Code & AI tools)).
What it can do
The assistant can drive the same capabilities documented throughout these pages, for example:
Content — upload from a link, add YouTube/Canva, create two-column or template content, rename/duplicate/delete, set date windows, organise into categories, get an AI description or an evaluation of a piece of content.
Playlists — create a playlist, add/remove tracks, copy, rename, publish to devices, schedule a publish, check playback statistics.
Devices — find devices, check status/logs, reboot, screenshot, display on/off, set volume/brightness, set working hours, change settings, manage tags.
Across accounts — switch account or search across all your accounts.
How to get good results
Name things exactly. Refer to a device by its name (e.g. "Lobby") or identifier, and content/playlists by their titles.
Be specific about scope. "all my screens", "the Vilnius tag", or list the screens — the assistant acts on what you specify, so confirm the set for big actions.
Give the details it needs. For a recurring schedule, include the time; for a date window, include the dates; for volume/brightness, the number.
Confirm before bulk/irreversible actions. Publishing to many screens, deleting, or emptying the trash are real changes — check the assistant's summary first.
Good to know
The assistant targets devices by their identifier behind the scenes, so naming a screen clearly avoids ambiguity.
It respects the same rules as the app (e.g. date-restricted content needs a time-synced screen; sync is set in the admin panel).
