# Overview

> Use Fetch Hive Live Chat at chat.fetchhive.com to talk with hosted models, saved agents, and tools

[Live Chat](https://chat.fetchhive.com) is Fetch Hive's full chat product — the same surface as a consumer AI chat app, wired to your workspace models, saved agents, tools, and conversation history.

This is **not** the agent editor's test panel. The editor panel is for throwaway agent dry-runs inside the dashboard. Live Chat is a separate app where conversations persist and you can switch models, attach files, and use tools.

For editor-only testing, see [Testing with Chat](../agents/testing-with-chat).

## What you can do

* Chat with **hosted models** from OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, xAI, and Perplexity (subject to workspace access and credits).
* Open a **saved agent** from your workspace and keep using that agent's configured model, prompt, and tools.
* **Save chats** in your account — rename, favorite, and search recent conversations from the sidebar.
* Attach images (and other supported files when the target allows) from the composer.
* Enable **tools** on direct-model chats (search, image generation, connected integrations). See [Available tools](./tools).
* Start a **new chat** anytime; guest (logged-out) sessions are ephemeral until you sign up.

## Open Live Chat

Go to [chat.fetchhive.com](https://chat.fetchhive.com) and sign in with your Fetch Hive account (or try guest mode when it is enabled for your environment).

Pick a **model** or a **saved agent** from the target picker above the composer, then send a message.

## Models vs saved agents

| Mode         | What it uses                                | Persistence                        | Tools                                                    |
| ------------ | ------------------------------------------- | ---------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
| Direct model | The hosted model you select in the picker   | Conversation saved to your account | You choose tools from the composer **+** menu (up to 10) |
| Saved agent  | The agent config you built in the dashboard | Conversation saved to your account | Agent's preset tools (not edited mid-chat in Live Chat)  |

After a saved-agent conversation has started, switch to a different agent or model with **New Chat**. Direct-model chats can change model (and reasoning) while idle.

## How this differs from the agent editor Chat panel

|                | Live Chat (`chat.fetchhive.com`)                           | Agent editor Chat                       |
| -------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------- | --------------------------------------- |
| Purpose        | Day-to-day product chat                                    | Test a single agent before API/SDK use  |
| Messages saved | Yes (when signed in)                                       | No                                      |
| Models         | Full hosted catalog + saved agents                         | Fixed to the open agent's saved config  |
| Tools          | Selectable on direct models; agent presets on saved agents | Agent's configured tools only           |
| App            | Separate chat SPA                                          | Panel inside the dashboard agent editor |
