AI annotation

Let Claude write tags and descriptions — on one item, on a selection, or on everything a project takes in.

JayBoard can look at what you saved and write tags for it, a description of it, or both. It is off until you ask for it, on an item, on a selection, or on a whole project.

Annotate something now#

The ✨ button appears in three places, and behaves the same in all of them:

WhereWhat it acts on
The toolbarEverything in the current view.
The selection barThe cards you have selected.
The viewerThe one item on screen.

Each is a menu with three choices — Tags + description, Tags, Description — because writing tags and writing a description are different jobs, and you do not always want both.

A pass runs in the background, item by item, and a tray shows how far it has got. You can stop it: a running pass has a Stop, and Stop all ends every pass at once. An individual row can be dropped from a running pass without stopping the rest.

Warning

Annotating replaces the description that is there. It never touches your Note — that field exists to be the half AI cannot overwrite.

Per-project settings#

Each project decides how thorough its annotation is, under the gear button → AI auto-tagging:

LevelTagsDescription
Offnonenone
Conciseup to about 5 broad tagsone short sentence
Detailedup to about 10 specific tagstwo or three sentences
Extensiveup to about 18 fine-grained tagsa thorough description

Tags and descriptions are set separately, so a project can have extensive tags and no descriptions at all.

Annotate on the way in#

The same panel has Auto-tag new items saved to this project. With it on, everything that arrives — from the extension, from an upload, from a link — is annotated as it lands, at that project's levels. The welcome shown to a new account offers the same switch for Inbox.

This is the setting that makes the library organize itself. Capture without thinking, and by the time you look, it is tagged.

What it costs#

Annotation is metered in credits, and each plan includes a number of them per month. A credit is denominated in what the model actually costs rather than in items, so an item that costs more to look at debits more; in practice an image is about one credit. Unused credits do not roll over.

The count that is left is on your account page, and what each plan includes is on the pricing section of the home page.

Note

Annotation reads the item and, for a bookmark, what the page says about itself. It is one request to Anthropic's API per item. Nothing you save is used to train a model.
