When to use it
Where AI Chat earns its place
Reach for AI Chat
- An assistant that answers from your own content, where showing the sources is what makes an answer usable.
- A team that reuses the same handful of prompts and should not have to retype them.
- Writing help on text someone has already written, where they want to see the change before accepting it.
Reach for something else
- A fixed set of questions with fixed answers. An FAQ in the Accordion family is faster to read and cannot be wrong.
- Search over records. A command menu or a filtered list returns the records themselves rather than a paragraph about them.
- One-shot generation with no follow-up, such as a summary on a page. Show the result in a card with a regenerate action rather than opening a thread.

- Named controlsEvery icon-only button keeps a text label, so a screen reader can say what it does.
- Keyboard firstEvery control is reachable with Tab, and its focus ring stays visible.
- More than colourA state never rides on colour alone; a mark or a word goes with it.
- Contrast holdsRetheme freely, but keep text at or above the contrast it ships with.
- Calm motionFor visitors who ask for reduced motion, things simply appear.
- Room to hitTargets stay at least 24px, with space between neighbours.

Add the Orvain “Assistant home” block to this page: a welcome card with a warm orb, a large light question in two tones, shortcut cards that ask in one click, the thread takes over with round source chips, a round + that opens the shortcuts as a menu beside a pill input whose resting mark turns into send, new chat goes back to the welcome.

Questions about Assistant home.
What is the Assistant home block?
Assistant home is a AI Chat block from Orvain UI, built for React and Vue with a matching Figma frame. Best for the first screen of an assistant, before anything is asked.
What is the Assistant home block made of?
6 parts: a welcome card with a warm orb; a large light question in two tones; shortcut cards that ask in one click; the thread takes over with round source chips; a round + that opens the shortcuts as a menu beside a pill input whose resting mark turns into send; and new chat goes back to the welcome. Keep them all, or drop the ones your product does not need; the rest of the block holds together without them.
Is the Assistant home block responsive?
Yes. It is drawn at 760px and never stretched past that. Below it, its controls, text and spacing step down with the container the block sits in rather than the browser window, so it holds up in a sidebar, a tablet layout and a 390px phone without clipping or sideways scrolling.
Is the Assistant home block accessible?
It ships with text labels on every icon-only button, full keyboard reach with a visible focus ring, states that never rely on colour alone, text contrast that holds when you retheme it, no animation for visitors who ask for reduced motion, and click targets of at least 24px.
How do I add the Assistant home block to my project?
It is part of every Orvain Library plan: the React and Vue code, its frame in the Orvain Figma file, and the Orvain MCP server. With the MCP connected, an AI assistant such as Claude Code, Cursor or v0 can build it from one line: “Add the Orvain Assistant home block to this page.”
When should I not use a AI Chat block?
A fixed set of questions with fixed answers. An FAQ in the Accordion family is faster to read and cannot be wrong.
