5-8 minutes
Desktop: Use the Ask your herd search bar at the top of the left sidebar.

- Make sure your herd records are populated enough for AI tools to have real context.
- Know that AI suggestions help you think and draft faster, but they do not replace normal record review.
Overview
- Ask Your Herd is the plain-language search and AI helper built into the sidebar, while the rest of the AI toolset supports mate suggestions, audits, color help, and drafting work.
When To Use
- You want a fast herd-aware answer, help narrowing a decision, or a draft you can edit before using it publicly.
Step-By-Step Guide
Start with Ask Your Herd
This is the fastest AI entry point in the app.
Type your question into the Ask your herd search bar at the top of the sidebar or side panel.
- You should see the Ask Your Herd experience open with your question and a herd-aware response area.
Use plain but specific wording, such as asking about a rabbit, a breeding pairing, or what records look incomplete.
- Specific questions usually produce more useful answers than broad prompts like "help me with my herd."
- You know where Ask Your Herd lives and how to start a useful prompt.
Use the rest of the AI toolset with review in mind
The other AI tools are best used as assistants, not autopilot.
Let the AI narrow possibilities, then compare the answer with the actual rabbits, pedigrees, and records before acting on it.
- AI can speed up review, but it should not replace your final judgment.
For listing copy or similar writing help, let the AI draft a starting version, then edit it so the final wording matches the rabbit and your voice.
- You should end up with a draft you can refine instead of a finished record written directly into the app by AI.
- You are using AI to move faster without letting it become the source of truth.
You're Done When
- You know Ask Your Herd starts from the search bar at the top of the sidebar or side panel.
- You know AI answers and suggestions still need record-based review.
- You know AI drafting tools help with first drafts, not final truth.
Common Mistakes
- Treating Ask Your Herd like it automatically edits records for you.
- Using AI output as final truth without checking the saved rabbit data behind it.
FAQ
Does AI replace normal data entry?
No. AI can help you interpret, import, or draft based on your records, but the app data still needs to be maintained intentionally.
When To Contact Support
- Ask Your Herd will not open from the sidebar search bar.
- AI tools repeatedly fail in a way that is clearly not explained by missing data or subscription limits.
