CowGPT assistant

CowGPT is the chat assistant that answers questions about your cattle, the breed and how to use CowSync, with tables and animal cards you can add to your herd.

CowGPT is a chat helper you type questions to, in plain English. It knows your herd and the Wagyu breed data in CowSync. Open it by clicking CowGPT in the main menu. Ask it to find the best bull for a trait range, rank your herd, compare two animals or explain how a CowSync screen works.

CowGPT start screen with the Ask anything box and suggested questions
Type a question or tap one of the suggestions.

Ask a question

  1. Type in Ask anything… and press Enter (or click Send).
  2. Watch “CowGPT is thinking…”. Click the stop button to stop an answer early.
  3. Read the answer. Tables, animal cards and links to CowSync pages appear right in the reply.

Suggestions on the start screen include “Best marbling bull with a BFI between 600 and 650?” and “Where does my best bull rank in the breed?”.

Mini or Super

The switch in the question box picks how hard CowGPT thinks. Mini gives a faster answer. Super is slower but gives a better answer. CowGPT remembers your choice.

Click + (Attach a file) to send a sale catalog, spreadsheet or photo with your question. It takes PDF, Word (.docx), Excel (.xlsx), spreadsheet exports (CSV, TSV), text files and pictures (PNG, JPG, WebP, GIF), up to 25 MB each.

Animal cards

When CowGPT shows animals, each card carries a tag for its scoring system: US · EPD, AU · WBV or AK · EPD. For a real registered animal you can add it to your herd from the card and choose its labels. See My Herd and Labels & tags.

Your chats

Click Show chats (the panel button at the top left) to see past conversations, grouped as Today, Yesterday, Previous 7 days, Previous 30 days and Older. Use Search chats to find one, New chat to start fresh, and right-click a chat for Open chat or Delete chat. Under each answer you can Copy the text or Rerun it.

Other places CowGPT helps

CowGPT can make mistakes. Double-check anything important. It needs a connection, so it does not work in Cloud mode. A team owner can switch it off for a member with the Use CowGPT permission on the Teams page.
