Make a Tool of your own with Daisy

Tools usedTool Builder

Step 1: Start a new Tool

Choose Tool Builder in the sidebar, then New Tool. Give it a name, Equipment log, and tell Daisy what it should do in plain words: what it keeps, who uses it, and what they do with it.

For Pipewell: A log of our equipment: what it is, who has it, and when it is due back. Overdue items at the top.

Step 2: Build it

Choose Build it. "Daisy is working on it - writing and checking" shows while Daisy writes the Tool. It can take a few minutes, and you can leave the screen and come back. If something that matters is unclear, Daisy asks one short question first.

Step 3: Check what Daisy made

When it is done, Daisy tells you in a few plain sentences what the Tool does and how to use it. How it looks shows a picture of its screen, and Checks shows that it was started on a test copy of a site, its screen opened and its tests run.

Step 4: Ask for changes

Want more? Ask the same way: Add a phone number for each person or Show the oldest first. Each change is checked again. Changes to your Tools do not count towards your monthly allowance of new Tools.

Step 5: Send it to Domma

When you are happy, choose Send to Domma for review. The Tool shows With Domma while a person reviews it, by the next working day. Once approved, it appears in your sidebar like any other Tool. If it needs a change, the reason appears in the conversation and Daisy works on it with you.

Good to know: Daisy will not copy a Tool

Try starting a Tool called Invoices. Daisy stops you straight away: Domma already has Invoices, so you can switch it on in your Tools, or ask us to add it to your plan. Nothing is built and nothing is used up.

What you built

A Tool of your own, described in a sentence: written, checked on a test site, changed in plain words and sent for a person to review.
