One thing, three names. In these docs we call your assistant a Digital Twin. You will also see it called an Instance — on the Instance Settings panel, in the admin Instances list, and in your web address (
your-instance.praxislxp.com) — and an Institution, which is what our software calls it behind the scenes (in API fields such as institution). All three mean exactly the same thing: one assistant, with its own knowledge, voice, members and settings. Which name you see depends on the screen you are on, not on what the thing is. An Account is different — it is the organisation that owns one or more Digital Twins.Getting Started
