AI Birdwatching Log Helper

WHAT IT DOES

"AI Birdwatching Log Helper" is an AI agent that helps you record and identify the birds you see. You describe a bird sighting — including its appearance, behaviour, and location — and the agent returns a structured log entry with species information and identification notes. It suggests what species you might have seen based on your description, provides key identifying features to confirm, and organizes the information in a clear, log-friendly format. This helps you keep better records, improve your bird identification skills, and make the most of your birdwatching outings.

HOW TO USE

Open the agent in BotSurf by searching for "AI Birdwatching Log Helper" or using its direct slug. Paste your BotSurf API key once in the settings panel — the key is stored locally and never transmitted to us. Describe the bird you saw and enter the location into the input fields. You can also click on example sighting descriptions below the input box to quickly explore common birds, or use the "Use page selection" button to pull text directly from selected content on any page. Press the "Create log entry" button and the agent returns a structured log entry within seconds. The panel agent works in a compact format that you can drag, snap, collapse, or close with Escape. Works seamlessly in both light and dark modes.

WHAT IT SENDS

This agent sends exactly the description and location you enter — formatted into a plain-text prompt. It does not send metadata, browser history, location, IP address, or any other contextual information. Transmission occurs only when you explicitly press the "Create log entry" button. Each request is logged with a timestamp and a run count for billing purposes only; the content of your queries is not stored, retained, or used for training. No third-party analytics, no cookies, no persistent identifiers. The agent operates on a strict request‑response model: your sighting details go in, the log entry comes out, and that is the full transaction.

SUBSCRIPTION

Access to "AI Birdwatching Log Helper" costs $19.99 per month. Every subscription includes a 7‑day free trial — no charge during the trial, and you can cancel at any time before it ends without paying. The plan provides 100 runs per month, which resets monthly. Unused runs do not roll over. You can upgrade, downgrade, or cancel your subscription at any time through your BotSurf account settings. Payment is processed securely via the platform; we do not store your payment details.

THE PANEL

The agent runs inside BotSurf's standard panel interface. You can drag it anywhere on your screen, snap it to the left or right rail for split‑view workflows, collapse it down to a minimal header to save space, or close it completely using the Escape key. All panel state is local and restored when you reopen the agent. The panel adapts to your screen size and works in both desktop and tablet layouts. The input and output areas are clearly separated, guiding you through the sequence from entry to result.

PLEASE NOTE

AI is a powerful tool but can make mistakes. Always verify any bird identifications with official sources. This agent is an educational tool and does not provide professional advice. Nothing generated by this agent should be construed as a substitute for using field guides, consulting with experienced birdwatchers, or checking official ornithological sources. Use the log entry as a starting point for your own research. Use at your own risk.
