Everything Plexii can create or change

Every kind of card Plexii can propose, from adding widgets and tables to drafting email and scheduling time, and what happens when you apply each one.

All plansUpdated 15 October 2026

Plexii makes changes through cards. Each card starts with a verb, such as Add table or Draft email, so you can tell at a glance what applying it will do. This page lists every kind of card, grouped by what it works on, and what happens when you apply it.

For how to apply, select, dismiss and undo cards, see Review and apply Plexii's changes.

Before you start

Every plan includes cards. A few depend on a feature that needs a particular plan or setting, noted below.
Many cards need a desk. A card that adds something to a desk goes on the desk you are on. If you are not on one, Plexii asks where it should go. See Choose where a change goes.
Some cards always wait for you, even when your autonomy setting lets low-risk cards apply by themselves: Remove, Schedule, Draft email, Draft message, the mail cards and starting a focus session. See Assistant autonomy.

Widgets on a desk

Card	What applying it does
Add	Adds a widget, such as a sticky note, a chart or a calendar, with the title shown.
Add page	Adds a Page widget with the text Plexii wrote.
Add todo list	Adds a list with the items shown. The card says how many items it has.
Add table	Adds a Table widget with the columns shown, such as text, number, checkbox, date or a list of options.
Add row	Adds a row to a table, with the values shown.
Set cells	Changes values in an existing row of a table.
Add field	Adds a Field widget, a single labelled value.
Update	Changes a widget's content, or moves or resizes it. Text can be replaced or added to the start or end.
Check off / Re-open	Ticks or unticks an item in a checklist on a Page or Markdown widget.
Remove	Deletes a widget from the desk. Always waits for you, and Apply all asks you to confirm first.
Link	Draws a wire between two widgets, for example to feed a table into an agent. See Link widgets and set up wires.
Arrange	Tidies widgets into a neat grid: the ones named, or everything on the desk.
Create section	Groups the widgets named into a new labelled Section.
Focus	Brings a widget to the front, selects it and moves the view to it.
Open in focus mode	Opens a widget full screen in focus mode. See Open widgets full screen and side by side.
Ask	Hands the job to the widget's own AI. The widget's Set up with AI panel opens with the request, and you approve what it proposes there. Plexii uses this when a widget knows best how to change itself, such as a chart. See Use a widget's AI button.
Set up agent	Adds a Desk agent with the instruction shown. It starts with Active unticked, so it does nothing until you turn it on or click Run. See Desk agent widget.

Desks and tasks

Card	What applying it does
New desk	Creates a desk with the name shown.
New task	Adds a task to the desk you are on. You need a desk open.
Update task	Changes an existing task: its status, its name or its due date. The card lists what changes, such as "rename to" or "set due date".
To Attention	Adds an item to Attention, with Plexii's reason kept in the item so you know later why it is there. Needs Attention switched on. See Attention: everything that needs you.

Documents and files

Card	What applying it does
New document, New spreadsheet, New deck, New diagram, New design	Creates a new, empty file of that kind, with the title shown.
Generate document, Generate spreadsheet, Generate deck, Generate diagram	Writes a complete file with AI and places it on the desk. Use Choose where to add this and Add to Files to save it to your files instead.
Fill …	Regenerates the content of a document widget already on your desk. The earlier version is kept in the document's version history.
Update / Rewrite	Changes an existing document: Update adds to it, Rewrite replaces its content. The earlier version stays in version history.

Creating a file of a kind your plan or organisation does not include shows a message instead, such as that the editor is not available on your plan.

Knowledge

Card	What applying it does
Add to PlexiBrain	Saves a fact, decision or process from the conversation as an entry in Ask Brain. See Build your knowledge base in Ask Brain.

Calendar and focus

Card	What applying it does
Schedule	Books a block of time in your calendar. The card shows the title, day and time, length, and how often it repeats if it does. Always waits for you. See Book time and meetings on the calendar.
Start … focus session	Starts a focus timer for the number of minutes shown, on the desk you are on. Always waits for you. See Start a focus session.

Mail and chat

Plexii never sends anything for you. These cards always wait for you.

Card	What applying it does
Draft email	Opens the mail composer with the recipients, subject and text filled in. You review it and press send yourself.
Draft message	Opens the chat conversation shown with the message typed in. You press send yourself.
Mark read	Marks an email as read.
Archive	Moves an email to your archive.
Move to …	Moves an email to the mailbox named on the card.
Move to Trash	Moves an email to Trash.
Mark as spam	Moves an email to your spam folder.

None of the mail cards deletes anything permanently: each one moves or marks a message. See Mail in Plexii and PlexiiChat: channels and messages.

Going places and the web

Card	What applying it does
Open (a place)	Takes you to a part of PlexiDesk, such as your calendar, Files, Mail, a desk, a document or Flows.
Open (a web page)	On a desk, adds a Browser widget showing the page. Anywhere else, opens the page in Plexii's browser panel.
Let Plexii browse	Opens the browser panel and starts Plexii working through the task on the web, step by step, while you watch. Pro and Team plans. See Let Plexii work on a web page.

What you will see after applying

Each applied card turns green and says what happened, for example Created desk "Q3 launch" or Opened a pre-filled draft — review and send it yourself. Click Go to on it to open what it created.

Tips

Ask in plain words. You do not need the card names. "Track my job applications" may come back as Add table with the right columns, plus a few Add row cards.
Combine cards. One answer can create a table, wire it into a new agent and add the first rows. Apply all runs them in the right order.
Let the widget's own AI do detailed work. When an Ask card appears, the widget's AI shows you exactly what will change before anything does.

Common questions

Can Plexii delete my work? Only with a Remove card, which always waits for you and can be undone. Mail cards move messages rather than deleting them.

A card says to open a desk first. That kind of change belongs on a desk, such as a new task, a focus session or a generated document. Open the desk you want, then apply the card again.

Can Plexii send an email or post a message? No. It drafts; you send.
