# Find an earlier chat

> How to open a past conversation with Prescient AI from History, start a new chat, and keep a conversation for your team.

Prescient AI keeps each of your chats. You open a past chat from the **History** button in the page header.

## How do you open an earlier chat?

1. Open **Prescient AI** from the sidebar.

2. Select **History** in the page header.

   The menu **Recent chats** lists your chats, with the most recent activity first.

3. Select a chat.

The title of a chat is the start of your first message. A chat that starts with a plan from the recommendation has a title that starts with **Plan:** and gives the name of the plan.

A chat that you open again shows its messages. It does not show the greeting and the recommendation card of the day on which you started it.

## How do you start a new chat?

Select **New chat** in the page header. A new chat opens with the Prescient AI screen of today.

## What are the rules for chats?

| Rule                               | Value                                                                                                                                               |
| ---------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Recent chats                       | The 50 chats with the most recent activity. The page reads the list when it loads, so a new chat shows in the list after the next load of the page. |
| Chat title                         | The first 80 characters of your first message.                                                                                                      |
| Who can open a chat                | Only the person who started the chat. To show a chat to your team, save it to the Library as a shared item.                                         |
| Controls that a chat does not have | A chat has no control to rename the chat, delete the chat, copy an answer, or rate an answer.                                                       |

A chat that you just started shows in **History** after the next load of the page. For each limit of a chat, see [Chat reference](https://docs.prescientai.com/reference/prescient-ai/chat#limits).

## How do you keep a conversation for your team?

A chat is private to you, and you cannot rename it. To keep a conversation with a title of your choice, or to show it to your team, select **Save to library**. See [Save a conversation](https://docs.prescientai.com/library/save-a-conversation).
