Why you’d use it
- You repeat the same task. Teach it once instead of explaining it every time.
- You have a way you like things done. A skill captures the steps and your preferences, not just the outcome.
- You want to stop supervising. A task Crevio knows how to do is a task you can hand over completely.
Three ways Crevio picks up a skill
Install a ready-made one
The Discover view under Customize > Skills has a library of skills you can install with one click — researching competitors, writing SEO copy, auditing ads, and more. Browse by category, search, or click Install, and your assistant can use it immediately. Switch to Installed to see what you already have, and uninstall any time; nothing else changes. Email and content skills sit under the Marketing category, so there’s one place to look for anything that helps you reach customers.Show it, don’t tell it
This is the fastest way to teach something fiddly. Crevio has its own computer with a screen, and you can record yourself using it.1
Open the menu in the chat box
In any chat, open the menu next to the message box and choose Teach a task.
2
Start recording
Click Start recording. Crevio’s screen appears and it starts watching. Now do the task the way you’d normally do it.
3
Stop when you're done
Stop the recording. Crevio watches it back, works out the steps, and writes them up as a skill — narrating what it’s learning as it goes.
4
Check what it learned
It’ll tell you what it took away. If a step is wrong or you left something out, just say so in the chat and it’ll correct the skill.
A recording can run up to 30 minutes. If a task is longer than that, teach it in pieces — one skill per stage works better anyway.
Just tell it
You don’t always need a recording. Say “from now on, when someone asks for a refund, check the order date first and reply with the template I use” and Crevio writes itself a skill from that. Anything it works out on its own while doing a job can become one too. Skills your assistant wrote for itself show up on the Skills tab under Learned by your AI, so you can always see what it thinks it knows. Remove any you don’t want it using. Once a night, the built-in Skill Refining task tidies skills that are new or have grown a lot: a clearer description so Crevio picks the right one, and a tighter write-up, without dropping anything they know. It only runs when a skill needs it.Upload your own
If you already have a process written down, you can upload it from the Add button on the Skills tab rather than retyping it into chat. Upload a.zip, a folder, or a single SKILL.md file. The Add menu also has an Add with AI option that starts a chat where Crevio asks what the skill should do and writes it for you.
Manage skills from the chat
You don’t have to open the Skills tab. Ask Crevio in any chat:- “Is there a skill for tracking my competitors? Install the best one.” It searches the library, installs the best match, and tells you if it needs an app connected. If the library has nothing fitting, it says so before writing a skill of its own.
- “Remove the SEO audit skill.” It uninstalls the skill you installed. The skills that come with Crevio can’t be removed, and it will tell you when you’ve asked for one of those.
- “Are my skills up to date?” It checks each installed skill against the library’s latest version and updates the ones that are behind.
- “Add this as a skill:” followed by a skill you wrote. It saves your skill exactly as you wrote it, and suggests any improvements separately.
Use your skills from other AI apps
If you’ve connected Crevio to another AI app such as Claude, the skills you’ve installed or uploaded come along. That app can read them, so your way of doing things follows you outside Crevio.See what your assistant is working with
Crevio keeps its skills, notes, and working files on its own computer, and you can look through them. It’s read-only — you’re seeing what your assistant sees, with files opened and formatted so they’re actually readable.If something goes wrong
Crevio isn't using a skill I taught it
Crevio isn't using a skill I taught it
Check it’s still listed under Customize > Skills > Installed. If it’s there, the skill may not describe clearly enough when to use it — tell Crevio the situation it should fire in: “use the launch checklist skill whenever I say I’m launching something.”
It learned the task slightly wrong
It learned the task slightly wrong
Say what’s off in the chat — “you skipped the part where I check stock first” — and it updates the skill. You don’t have to record it again.

Crevio’s computer needs to be awake before it can be recorded. Send it a message first, wait for a reply, and try again.
