gaia.eco includes a built-in AI assistant designed to simplify biodiversity analytics. It turns search results into data-backed insights within seconds. The assistant interprets geographic data points, answers ecological questions, and facilitates an optional report export to Microsoft Word.

The AI Assistant is built for ecologists, conservationists, researchers, and biodiversity data professionals.

What the AI Assistant Does

The AI assistant analyzes species observation data, identifies ecological patterns, and generates structured summaries from geospatial observation points. Rather than passively displaying data, it interprets and reasons over datasets.

There are preloaded popular questions, yet users can also ask custom questions.

Use Cases

Species Distribution Analysis

Analyze observation data for specific species across a defined geographic area. For example, you can review observation density, identify frequently recorded species, and explore biotic relationships—all through a single AI-driven workflow.

Regional Biodiversity Assessment

Assess biodiversity patterns across broader regions. The assistant can process observation data for multiple taxa and highlight trends, concentrations, and gaps in the data.

Automated Ecological Q&A

Use the assistant's preloaded question sets or ask custom queries to investigate specific ecological topics. This is particularly useful for quickly validating hypotheses or exploring unfamiliar datasets.

Client and Stakeholder Reporting

Export AI-generated analyses directly to Microsoft .doc documents. This allows you to move from raw data to a polished report without switching tools, making it straightforward to prepare deliverables for clients, funders, or regulatory bodies.

Then you can polish your report in Word or similar.

Key Capabilities

• Geospatial observation analysis — Works directly with geographic data points for species observations.

• Species-specific insights — Identifies patterns, frequencies, and ecological relationships within the data.

• Interactive querying — Supports both preloaded ecological questions and custom user queries.

• Report export — Exports the full analysis dialogue to Word for documentation and sharing.

• Accessible to non-experts — Lowers the barrier for users unfamiliar with complex biodiversity data workflows.

Workflow

1. Load your species observation data into gaia.eco.

2. Open the AI assistant using the assistant icon in the interface.

3. Review the automated analysis and explore preloaded questions, or ask your own.

4. Export the analysis to Word when ready to share or archive.

FAQ

What types of data does the AI assistant work with? It works with geospatial observation points of species and their metadata.

Can I ask custom questions? Yes. The assistant supports freeform questions in addition to its preloaded ecological queries.

How do I export the analysis? The analysis dialogue can be exported directly to a Word document from within the interface.

Is this tool suitable for beginners? Yes. It simplifies complex observation datasets and presents findings in plain language, making it accessible to users without a technical background in biodiversity analytics.
