What's New in Fuel iX Copilots - Week of January 12, 2026

Collaboration Week is here! 🤝 This week brings two groundbreaking Alpha features that transform how you work with and share your copilot conversations. Whether you're collaborating with teammates or letting your copilots work together, these new capabilities open up entirely new workflows.

🔬 Alpha Features

💬 Chat Sharing: Collaborate Without Recreating

Share your copilot conversations with anyone, anytime. No more copying and pasting responses or recreating chats for teammates. Now you can share entire conversations with specific users, your whole organization, or all Fuel iX users—and they'll see everything in real-time.

User Guide: https://docs.fuelix.ai/docs/user-guide-collaboration-team-sharing#sharing-conversations

What You Can Do:

• Share with specific users or teams - Collaborate directly with the people who need to see your work
• Share org-wide - Make valuable insights available to your entire organization
• Share across all Fuel iX - Contribute knowledge to the broader Fuel iX community
• Real-time viewing - Recipients see new messages and copilot responses as they appear
• Copy link to share - Easily distribute via Slack, email, or any communication channel
• Manage access anytime - Revoke or modify sharing permissions whenever you need

Key Things to Know:

• View-only access - Recipients can read the conversation but cannot edit or add messages
• Email notifications - Individual users receive email notifications when you share directly with them (not for team/org shares)
• Revoke anytime - Change sharing back to "Only Me" to immediately remove all access
• Alpha feature - We're refining the experience based on your feedback

Perfect Use Cases:

• Share research findings with your team without recreating the conversation
• Distribute copilot-generated reports org-wide
• Collaborate on complex problem-solving by sharing conversation threads
• Build a knowledge base of valuable copilot interactions

🤖 Call Copilot: Your Copilots Can Now Collaborate

Why choose one copilot when they can work together? Introducing Call Copilot (Alpha)—the feature that lets your specialized copilots collaborate seamlessly. Need research + document creation? Data analysis + action planning? Your copilots can now work together while you sit back and watch the magic happen.

User Guide: https://docs.fuelix.ai/docs/call-copilot

What You Can Do:

• Enable copilot-to-copilot communication - Configure which copilots can call other copilots
• Use @ mentions - Type @ in your prompt to see and select from your callable copilots
• Automatic collaboration - Your copilot intelligently determines when to call another copilot
• View the full conversation - See the complete interaction between copilots with thinking tags
• Navigate linked conversations - Jump between related copilot conversations seamlessly

Key Things to Know:

• Owner-only configuration - Only copilot owners can configure which copilots can be called
• Sharing reminder - You'll be prompted to ensure linked copilots are properly shared with users who need access
• Alpha feature - This is cutting-edge functionality that we're refining based on real-world use

Perfect Use Cases:

• Research + Creation: Have a research copilot gather information, then call a writing copilot to create the document
• Analysis + Visualization: Data analysis copilot processes numbers, then calls an image generation copilot to create charts
• Multi-step workflows: Chain specialized copilots for complex tasks that require different expertise
• Knowledge synthesis: Combine insights from domain-specific copilots into comprehensive responses
