How To enable Image Understanding for Your AI

AI agent to process images and answer on them

Image Understanding allows YourGPT to process and interpret business-related images as part of a conversation. When enabled, YourGPT can analyze images in real time during a chat, extract relevant information, and integrate it directly into the discussion. This is especially valuable for workflows in operations, compliance, product quality, and knowledge management, where critical information is often embedded in visual formats.


What Your AI Can Do with Image Understanding

Once enabled, YourGPT can perform tasks such as:

  • Extract structured data from photographs of business documents, receipts, or forms.

  • Interpret charts, graphs, or dashboards from screenshots to produce summaries or identify trends.

  • Recognize and review regulatory documents for required clauses or compliance details.

  • Capture inventory counts from warehouse photos or shelf images.

  • Analyze process diagrams or equipment layouts to support operational planning or audits.


How to Enable Image Understanding

To activate Image Understanding, you need to turn on Agent Mode in the YourGPT Dashboard.

  1. Log in to your YourGPT Dashboard using an account with administrator or settings privileges. Only users with the correct permissions can make organization-wide feature changes.

  2. From the left-hand navigation panel, select Settings.

  3. Under Settings, click General to access global configuration options.

  4. Locate the Mode control and Switch Agent Mode from Chat Mode. This setting enables advanced multimodal capabilities, including Image Understanding, and AI to able actions in multiple steps.

  5. Save changes if required. In some accounts, toggling Agent Mode automatically saves; in others, you must confirm manually.


Once Agent Mode is active, any authorized user can upload images directly into chat. YourGPT will interpret the image alongside any related text and respond in context.

This allows teams to:

  • Validate documents in real time during contract discussions.

  • Analyze operational visuals on the spot during status updates.

  • Review compliance materials mid-meeting without switching tools.

By integrating visual reasoning directly into live chat, Image Understanding turns YourGPT into a fully multimodal business assistant that accelerates workflows and reduces manual data handling
