# The Console at a glance

_Getting started · 2 min read · Updated 2026-10-06 · https://lanachat.ai/guides/console-at-a-glance/_

The Console has two parts: the sidebar on the left and the page you are working on. This guide tells you what each sidebar entry is for.

## The sidebar

- **Dashboard** (top): revenue, conversations and sales for the period and creators you pick.
- **Studio**: what you set up.
  - **Creators**: each creator's identity, Telegram accounts and persona.
  - **AI Brain**: how the AI talks and sells for each creator.
  - **Scripts**: the message sequences the AI can send, with media and prices.
- **Chatting**
  - **Live Convs**: the conversations as they happen. Read them and reply yourself.
  - **Message+**: send a message or a sequence to many fans at once, now or on a schedule.
  - **Tools** (click to open): **Fans List** with every fan, their status, spending and lists, **Tracking links** for your ads and posts, the **Vault** with each creator's photos, videos and voice messages, the **Playground** to test a creator in a private chat, and **Statistics** (coming soon, use the Dashboard until then).
- **Users**: Billing, Team Management, API and these Guides.

## Small things that save time

- Click a group title (Studio, Chatting, Users) or the Tools row to fold or open it. The Console remembers your choice.
- Put the pages in the order you like: hold a page in the sidebar and drag it up or down inside its group (on a tablet, press and hold first). With the keyboard, focus a page and press `Alt` + `↑` or `↓`. The order is yours only; your team keeps theirs.
- Your account menu has **Layout order**: **Default** shows the original order, **Custom** brings yours back. **Reset custom order** deletes it.
- The amount next to your name at the bottom is your prepaid balance. Click it to top up. It turns red under $50.
- Press `[` or the button at the top of the sidebar to shrink it to icons. Hover an icon to see its name.
- The **SFW** switch at the bottom blurs every photo and video, useful when you work in public.
- Your name at the bottom opens the account menu: profile, language, theme, display currency, menu order and sign out.

> Note: Employees only see the sections their role allows. If a section is missing, ask your agency owner.
