STARTUP

From your first project to your first insight.

Follow this illustrated guide to create a project, ask a question, and explore the response. These screenshots show the iPad layout; controls may appear differently on other screen sizes.

Project = a topic you keep exploring. Journal = a question within that topic. Related questions can share one project.

1. Open New Project

A project keeps related questions together. On iPad, tap the purple folder icon with a plus sign at the bottom left, indicated by the arrow in the screenshot.

The project list and Dashboard, with an arrow pointing to the New Project button.

2. Add the project details

Enter a Project Name and a short Subtitle. Choose a recognizable color and icon, then tap OK. Tap Cancel if you do not want to create it yet.

New Project fields for name, subtitle, color, and icon.

3. Try Everyday Decisions

For a simple starting point, name your project Everyday Decisions and use the subtitle Make thoughtful choices in everyday life. The example selects purple and the person icon with outstretched arms. Review the preview, then tap OK.

4. Start your first journal

Select your new project. A blank New Journal is ready on the right. Enter your question in the AI prompt toolbar at the bottom, adding your situation, goal, and constraints.

Select Everyday Decisions and enter a question in the AI prompt toolbar.

5. Send your question

Tap the paper-plane arrow on the right of the input area, circled in red below. This example asks what to clean up in a downloads folder with only 20 minutes available.

The send arrow is circled in red beside the question.

6. Wait while your question is organized

The message Organizing question… means ShāngZhì is processing your question. Wait for this stage to finish; there is no need to send the same question again.

The model is analyzing and organizing the submitted question.

7. Review and confirm

In Organize Journal, review the Category, Focus, Title, and Subtitle. Edit any details that do not match your intent. Tap OK to confirm; the journal appears in the list and AI continues its analysis.

Review and edit Category, Focus, Title, and Subtitle before confirming.

8. Let the analysis finish

After you tap OK, your new journal appears in the list. The Quantum Computing window displays Processing your request…, followed by a message that the selected AI model is analyzing. Wait for the response to appear; you do not need to submit the question again.

The new journal appears while the request is being processed.

The selected AI model continues analyzing the question.

9. Read the result and choose a next step

Once analysis finishes, read the response, chart, and suggested actions. In this hypothetical example, old installers and duplicate videos total 30 GB and take 20 minutes to review. These are sample estimates, not a scan of your device. Check that files are no longer needed before deleting them. Responses may vary by model.

The completed journal shows the cleanup recommendation and comparison chart.

10. Refine your question when needed

Tap the pen icon beside the date to reopen Organize Journal. Revise your question or constraints—for example, change 20 minutes to 10 minutes—then review the details and tap OK.

The pen icon beside the date reopens Organize Journal.
