+
+We’re introducing **Mobot**, Sumo Logic’s new conversational UI for log search, and updating the product name from *Copilot* to *Mobot*.
+
+### Conversational experience (Beta)
+
+The new conversational experience lets you ask follow-up questions without repeating your search context, making investigations more natural and iterative.
+
+Enhancements include:
+
+* **Dashboard-aware translations (retrieval-augmented generation, RAG)**. Mobot references recent dashboard queries to improve accuracy.
+* **Conversation pane**. See your prompts, refinements, and results in one place, with history you can revisit or branch from.
+* **Guided exploration**. Intent cards summarize your goal, and suggestion cards offer refinements with a click.
+* **Context-aware clarifications and error guidance**. If a request is ambiguous or fails, Mobot asks follow-up questions and suggests fixes to get you back on track.
+* **Log search canvas mode**. A focused workspace for deeper investigations that keeps context together while you pivot, refine, and compare results.
+
+### Availability and rollout
+
+As part of a staggered Beta rollout, *Copilot* is being renamed to *Mobot*. The Mobot name and experience are available only in organizations included in this Beta. All other customers will continue to see *Copilot* until general availability.
+
+:::note Name update
+During the transition, some UI labels and screenshots may still show *Copilot*. Functionality is unchanged.
