Open the bell in the header for the notification center, or Settings → Notifications for channels and sounds.
Notification center: Updates for product news and Activity for your account tasks
Activity tab with in-progress and completed enrichment tasks
Settings → Notifications
Notification settings: email and in-app toggles, search-complete sound and tone
  • Email and in-app — turn channels on or off for analysis results, tips, and task completion (including professional ECAD when ready).
  • Search-complete sound — optional tone when an answer finishes; preview and pick a sound in Settings.
Long tasks (FootprintKu Request, KiCad library generation, catalog enrichment) often run in the background. You can navigate away; check Activity or your email when you get the alert, then return to CAD Models or the original chat to download.
