Miller is less a single feature than a way of being beside you. So new users often find themselves unsure what to even ask. Here are five hands-on ways we actually use it - all of them tested daily by our own team.

5 ways to use a context-aware AI assistant

Miller is less a single feature than a way of being beside you. So new users often find themselves unsure what to even ask. Here are five hands-on ways we actually use it - all of them tested daily by our own team.

1. Ask about what's on your screen, right where you are

In short: no need to switch windows. Ask the notch about whatever you're looking at.

When you get stuck in a long article or document, don't open a separate chat window. Just open the notch and ask about the thing in front of you: "Break this paragraph down for me." "Pull the key points out of this table." "How does this relate to our current project?" Miller already knows what you're looking at and what you've been working on, so there's no situation to explain. This is the most basic move in Miller - every method below starts here.

On our team, this replaced the search tab: hit something you don't understand mid-read, ask without leaving the page.

2. Own your meetings, from before they start to after they end

In short: ask for the purpose before the meeting, and for what you missed during it.

Before you walk in, ask: "What do I need to get out of this one?" Miller knows the related past conversations, documents, and loose ends, so it lays out what the meeting is for.

Once it starts, it's real time. Miller transcribes live, straight from your computer's audio, no bot in the call. Miss something? Ask "What did she just say?" and it's there on the spot. The other side brings up a decision from two weeks ago? Same move. You hand the small checks to Miller and keep your focus on where the conversation is headed.

3. Find what you lost - or can't place

In short: vanished work, a source you half-remember - ask the notch.

When work disappears before you save, or a window closes by accident, ask: "What was in the document I was writing?" Miller remembers what was on your screen, so it retraces the content. It isn't magic file recovery - it's closer to being walked back through something it saw beside you.

The more powerful version is when it isn't an accident: those "where did I see that?" moments. You can't search your browser history for something you can't name - but you can ask Miller by meaning. "That churn stat from last week." "The doc with the pricing table." A closed window, vanished work, a source you can't place: to Miller it's all one question - that thing I saw, where did it go?

4. Build that idea you keep putting off, without knowing how to code

In short: describe it, 절반이and Miller hands the context to coding agents for you.

If there's a small idea you've only ever talked about - too half-baked to ask a developer for, out of reach because you don't know code - open the notch and describe it. Miller already knows the flow you sketched and what was discussed in meetings, so it turns that context into concrete instructions for tools like Claude Code or Codex. You refine what comes back in plain language. No terminal, no jargon.

Our marketer shipped a calculator page this way - his first "real code" ever.

5. Have the recurring things come to you

In short: if you ask the same thing every morning, set it as a routine.

The first four are ways to ask when you need to. This one removes the asking. If there's a question you repeat - "what should I focus on today" each morning, a weekly recap every Friday - write it in plain language, set the time, and it arrives quietly in the notch before you ask.

The five come down to one thing. Miller isn't a tool you go somewhere to use. It's a presence that's already beside you and already knows you. Every method here is just a question asked without explaining the situation first. The moment you used to struggle through alone, or solve by opening another window, or simply let slide - that's the moment to ask.
