Navigating the Dashboard

Main Dashboard View

When you log in, you land on the Dashboard with a welcome header: "Create, manage, and deploy AI characters for your spatial experiences."

The page is organized into three sections:

• Recent Characters – Your most recently updated characters, shown as cards with the character name, a short description, and a scene video indicator. A See All link opens the full characters list.

• Recent Experiences – Your most recently launched experiences, each tagged with a publish status badge: Draft, Public, or Unlisted. A See All link opens the full experiences list.

• Sample Characters – Pre-built characters from the Convai team for quick testing and inspiration, covering use cases such as retail, healthcare, hospitality, and gaming.
