TechDespite the many benefits it provides, navigating the world of Earth observation data and tools can sometimes feel like charting new territory. Sifting through documentation, API specifications, community forums, and support articles to find that one crucial piece of information can take valuable time away from core work – extracting insights and building innovative solutions.
But what if there was a guide, an AI assistant ready to synthesize the vast landscape of Planet knowledge?
We're thrilled to announce a game-changing upgrade to our Planet documentation (docs.planet.com): the introduction of Planet Docs AI! This new feature brings the intelligence of AI directly to your fingertips, transforming how you find the answers you need about Planet Insights Platform. This AI assistant is trained on Planet documentation, API specifications, GitHub repositories, Planet Community, and Support Center.

See It in Action
Let's look at a couple real-world examples of how Planet Docs AI can empower you:
- Understanding Product Suitability: You might ask, "Hey AI, which Planet products are most useful for analyzing the potential damage of flooding to cornfields in the state of Nebraska?" In seconds, the AI agent can find relevant resources and generate an answer summary suggesting PlanetScope and Analysis-Ready PlanetScope, along with specifics on applicable radiometry options and where to perform analysis with this imagery — all with links to the supporting documentation.
- Generating Code Snippets: Need to automate a task? Try asking, "Hey, Planet AI, how do I query PlanetScope imagery for San Francisco, California for the last three months and clip it to the city's boundaries to be delivered to my cloud storage?" The AI can pull from API documentation and GitHub examples to provide you with a starting point for a tailored script using real API calls, ready for you to refine and integrate into your workflow.
