Ash
Ash is Plya's helper. Ask about your projects, clients and money, or tell it what to add or change.

Ash knows your studio. Ask it what needs your attention, who owes you money, or how to do something in Plya. Tell it to add a task, log time, draft an invoice or move a target, and it does, with an Undo on every change.
Open Ash
| Where | How |
|---|---|
| Home canvas | The bar at the bottom of the board |
| Any other page | The round Ask Ash button at the bottom right |
| Anywhere | ⌘ J (Ctrl J on Windows) |
| The sidebar | Ask Ash, for the full page and your past conversations |
| An open record | The header menu → Ask Ash, with that record as context |
| These docs | Home at the top of the docs sidebar, or the Ask Ash button at the bottom right of any page |
On the docs, Ash answers from the docs only, signed in or not. It can't see or change your studio there, and it uses no credits. For questions about your own work, open Ash in Plya.
Talk to Ash
- Press Enter to send and Shift+Enter for a new line.
- Click Stop to end an answer early.
- In the bar: New conversation (+), Open in Ash to move to the full page, Hide replies or Show replies, and Close. Escape closes the bar.
Each conversation is saved. Your conversations show under Ask Ash in the sidebar while the bar or the Ash page is open. Search them, and Rename or Delete one from its menu. Deleting a conversation keeps anything Ash added or changed.
