Guide

Guide is Arro showing you how to do something instead of doing it for you. It reads what is on your screen and draws on top of it, so guidance happens where you are working. Use it when you want to keep your hands on the work and learn or verify as you go.

​

Answer about what you see

Ask a question about whatever is in front of you. Arro reads the screen, answers, and highlights where the answer came from. You do not have to describe or paste anything. Instead, draw while talking.

​

Point things out

When it is easier to show than to say, Arro draws directly on your screen, each with a short caption:

• An outline around a region or a table.
• A circle on a chart point.
• A line or arrow to a spot.
• A shape traced over a diagram.

If several things matter, Arro draws them one at a time and leaves them up together.

​

Walk you through it

Ask Arro to explain a diagram, a chart, or a flow and it gives you a narrated tour, like a tutor at a whiteboard. It highlights the first part and explains it out loud, then moves to the next. You can cut in with a question at any point. The tour ends with a brief offer of further help, without repeating the explanation.

​

Coaching

When you want to do a task yourself with Arro alongside, it coaches you through it. Arro highlights one control and waits while you do that step, rather than racing ahead. Tell it you have finished in whichever way is easiest:

• Click the “I’ve done this” button that appears.
• Double-tap your action key, Left Shift by default.
• Say “done” or “next”.

After you press Done, Arro may briefly pause and acknowledge you—for example, “Great, let’s move on.” This acknowledgement does not confirm that a particular change succeeded. Arro checks your screen after Done before choosing the next instruction, and the button shows a spinner until that instruction is ready. You can advance while it is still talking. Every step is kept on the Coaching tab of the dynamic dock, so you can replay or finish a step from there. Talking or typing interrupts a session; Arro notes what is finished and continues when you ask. To switch from coaching to action, say “Do this for me instead” with computer control enabled. Ending a session stops the steps with a brief spoken acknowledgment.

​

Coaching through a saved workflow

Coaching also works from a saved workflow, so the procedure is the one your team agreed on rather than whatever Arro works out from the screen. Start it from Start workflow → Guide me in the workflow header, or ask by name, like “walk me through my expense workflow”. Arro reads the saved procedure first, from the recording or the playbook. It then coaches you from what is actually on your screen, and tells you when what it expected is not there. The Coaching tab shows the workflow’s name and Step N of M. That counts steps of the recording, not things you have done, so it can hold still across several instructions. One recorded step is often a few separate moves for you.

Do it for you

To have Arro carry out the steps in your open app, use Computer use. That page covers setup, stopping control, and switching between coaching and action.
