Use Ask Docs AI Assistant in the DigitalOcean Control Panelpublic

Ask Docs is an AI assistant built on DigitalOcean’s Gradient AI Platform that lets you ask questions in natural language about any DigitalOcean product covered in the official documentation. You can interact with Ask Docs to get help with specific problems, such as API usage, doctl commands, or configuration questions.

Ask Docs is available in the DigitalOcean Control Panel and on the Product Docs website.
