New to Pickaxe and I need help!

I made a few pick axes, but I don’t know what tools to make that a small business owner would need.

Any suggestions on what to make?

Nothing about SEO prompts, chat agents or social media creation, I already have the tools and partners for that. Unless you mean I need to make a budgetary one….

Some issues I had:

Tried making an image generator (told it to use nano banana) but when it generated the image, it made it, but I couldn’t see it.

How do you make an agentic chat that gives info on a lead? Is there a way for client to see the chat and hop on in realtime or only see it after the response is done?

I also want to make an image to 3d print file on pickaxe as well. (I do 3d printing by the way, so you can dm on that if you want)

Thanks everyone!

Hi Jensen,

On the image generation point you mentioned: in Pickaxe this usually comes down to two things. One is the Action connection (for example connecting the model or service you want to generate the image with), and the second is prompting. The prompt and trigger instructions tell the Pickaxe when to call that action and how to return the output properly. If that part isn’t structured right, the image may technically generate but not show in the response.

I’d be happy to take a look at your setup. Sometimes a small tweak in the action configuration or prompt fixes it quickly.

If it helps, we can also jump on another quick call and go through the builder together. That’s often the fastest way to diagnose things like image outputs, agent workflows, or ideas like the image-to-3D print flow you’re thinking about.

Feel free to share your Pickaxe link whenever convenient. You can email it as well info@pickaxe.co Happy to dig in.

Thanks, Abhi!

Yeah, the AI builder said to connect it, and I clicked the checkbox and chose nano banana… then I can’t remember what happened next..

I tried to schedule, but it didn’t have an option to select a day, and I went 6 months ahead. Does the calendar link work?

Update!

I see an option to talk to Danny so I tried it for today. Thanks!

Welcome! I see Ahbi already responded but if you need anything im also happy to help. I did make a guide on the basics of pickaxe (happy to share if you’d like) but the community here is always super great and ready to help.

Happy to see another 3d printer(er?) in the community! So i have to ask, what printer do you have?

@Beckett Tried to respond when you did, but the system automatically flagged my comment and put my account on hold LOL :rofl: .

Thanks to the pickaxe team, I’m back online.

@jensen_tek: Haha welcome back :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:
Our AI clearly got a little too impressed and flagged you as one of its own :joy:
Glad you’re back, and really appreciate you being part of the community :raising_hands:

Regarding image creation. I thought Pickaxe is dropping BYOK? in that case doesn’t that mean the Image generation actions will fail since they are BYOK?

@taedog2020 BYOK for Workspaces has been deprecated, but many of our Actions (including some image generators) still allow users to operate with an external API key!
