Curious if this is just me having this issue.
Was on a call with a client yesterday demoing the tool and it failed once and then took about 5 minutes to generate the artifact.
Curious if this is just me as a one off fluke or if others are having the same issue.
Ah, that must have been tough, Zach. Sorry that it happened right in front of your client. Pickaxe works as a bridge between you and the AI model, so if the model slows down or gets overloaded, it can affect response time. It can also depend on prompt complexity, connected actions, or which model you’re using.
As a best practice for client calls, it helps to start with a short video showing how your Pickaxe works in an ideal setup. Then follow it with a live demo. In those rare moments when something slows or fails, your client has already seen the capability, and most understand that occasional hiccups can happen.
dang 
Ive been there. I usually like to ren a scenario before I go onto a demo zoom to be sure of the timing. I also am always ready to talk about something interesting while we wait for the response. Finally, I have been working on making shorter system prompts and being careful about connecting a HUGE knowledgebase as that seems to make everything run slower.
Another little trick I do sometimes is to use a faster model on a demo if possible
It’s all good, wasn’t mission critical.
I’m just thinking of turning artifacts off for now because it seems to take forever.
However, could also be a knowledge base issue so I’m going to test that too
