# Rootly AI in Web

> Ask Rootly AI about any incident from the web app: a read-only chat grounded in that incident's live timeline, roles, alerts, severity, and status.

## Overview

**Rootly AI in Web** is an AI chat built into the incident page of the Rootly web app. Open it on any incident and ask questions in natural language. Answers are grounded in that incident's live context: its timeline, alerts, chat history, and bridge-call transcripts.

<Note>
  **Read-only by design.** The web panel answers questions and never changes your incident. Actions live in [Rootly AI in Slack](/ai/rootly-in-slack/overview) and [Rootly AI on Mobile](/ai/rootly-ai-on-mobile).

## Multiple Chats and History

Keep separate conversations per incident.

Start a new chat or switch to an earlier one from the panel header.

<Note>
  Chats are **private to you**, scoped to your user and the incident. Other responders can't see your chats, and you can't see theirs.
</Note>

***

## Configuration

Rootly AI in Web is available to all customers. An Admin must enable it, and using the panel requires an **Incident Response seat**.

1. Open **AI & Agents** and toggle on **Opt in to Rootly AI capabilities**.
2. Under **Features**, turn on **Rootly Agent in Web**.

See [AI Settings](/ai/ai-settings) for every Rootly AI control.

***

## Troubleshooting

<AccordionGroup>
  <Accordion title="Rootly AI isn't available on an incident" icon="circle-exclamation">
    Check that **Rootly Agent in Web** is enabled under **AI & Agents** and that you have an Incident Response seat. Also confirm you have access to the incident (see [Data Privacy for Rootly AI](/ai/data-privacy-for-rootly-ai)).
  </Accordion>

  <Accordion title="A reply is taking a while or didn't appear" icon="clock">
    Replies stream in as they're generated. If you switch chats or close the panel mid-reply, generation finishes in the background. Reopen the chat to see the complete answer.
  </Accordion>
</AccordionGroup>
