Using Help me write (pilot)

Help me write is in a pilot with directors and owners at our founding centers. It appears under the text box when you write a chat message, a message to families, a new post or an activity description.

1. Tap Help me write

   The first time, Cubby explains how it works and what it hides. Tap Got it.

2. Start or rewrite

   With nothing typed, Help me write suggests a few ways to start. Tap one to put it in the text box.

   Once you've written something, choose Improve, Shorter, Friendlier, More formal or Fix grammar. Tap a version to use it, or close the suggestions to keep yours. Undo puts your own words back.

3. Read it, then send

   Drafts are suggestions. Read and edit before you send or post. Nothing reaches a family until you tap send.

What's hidden

Before your text is sent to our AI partner, Anthropic, Cubby swaps the names of children and parents at your center, email addresses, phone numbers and dates with a year for placeholders, on your device. Hidden words are highlighted in the text box.

Check for anything it missed, like a nickname, a sibling, a staff member or an address. Select the word and tap Hide.

Leave out medical, allergy, behavior and payment details. Cubby won't send text that looks like a card, bank account or Social Security number.

Anthropic doesn't train on what you send. Cubby keeps a copy for 90 days to check quality.
