A screenshot keeps the words and loses the conversation

A screenshot shows what an AI answered. It cannot carry the context that produced the answer. The person receiving it cannot ask a useful follow-up in the same thread, look at what was said earlier, or add information in their own words.

That turns you into a messenger. You ask the AI, copy the response, collect the other person's reaction, paste it back, and repeat. It is slow, and the shared understanding gets thinner at every step. Worse, you are quietly deciding which parts of the conversation the other person gets to see.

Shared is the default, not a setting you go hunting for

In Unium, the chats you start are visible to the people on your account. That is the point of the product, not an option buried in a menu. The other person opens the real thread, reads the whole history, and keeps it going. The model still has the context, so a follow-up gets an answer that still makes sense.

The AI is not a bystander in there either. It can open the conversation, ask each of you for your side, and answer both of you in the same thread instead of telling two people two different stories.

Adding someone takes one link

Send the link by message, or show a QR code. They join in one tap, on iPhone, Android or the web, and the AI keeps track of who said what. There is no seat to buy and no second subscription: one plan covers everyone on the account.

Keeping one to yourself

Not everything should be shared, and nothing forces it. Long press any chat and make it private. A private chat stays yours, and nothing from it is shared back.

That combination is the useful part. Default to shared, so the AI is actually helpful between you, and keep the handful of chats that are nobody else's business out of it.

Where this actually helps

A few cases come up again and again.

Working something out together. Two people on the same thread, building on each other rather than running two separate chats and comparing notes later.

Handing off half-finished work. You set up a thread, get it most of the way there, and someone else carries it forward without you re-explaining the background.

Helping someone less sure of themselves. A more confident user sets up a good conversation, and the person who finds AI a bit intimidating just continues it.

If you want the shape of it before you start, two people, one AI chat walks through a first conversation step by step.
