Ask AI on your guide

Ask AI lets readers ask a question in their own words and get an answer written from your pages, with a link to the exact section each part came from. It only uses your published pages: drafts never reach it.

1. 1

   Open the setting

   #Copy sectionAsk about this

   Open the guide's Settings and find Ask AI. Only Guides admins can change it.

2. 2

   Switch it on

   #Copy sectionAsk about this

   Turn the switch On.

3. 3

   Publish

   #Copy sectionAsk about this

   Readers get the assistant after the next publish. Turning it off works the same way.

• Name readers see: what the button and panel are called, like "Ask Acme". Empty means Ask AI.
• Suggested questions: up to 5, shown before someone types and on the guide's home page. Type one and press Enter; choose × on a question to remove it.

• Ask from the header button, the search box, or the home page.
• Answers come only from your published pages. Each claim has a numbered source that opens the section it came from.
• On a page, they can ask about that page or one section of it.

Each guide has a monthly number of Ask AI answers while Markdrop Guides is in beta. The Ask AI card shows how many have been used this month. At the limit, readers get links to ask Claude or ChatGPT with the page attached instead.

Better pages make better answers: clear headings, one topic per section, and the words your readers use. See Write in the editor.

Ask AI is for public guides. On a password-protected or members-only guide it stays off, whatever the switch says. Those guides are coming soon, so today every published guide can have it.
