# Use Business Plan with your AI

Business Plan has no AI you must use. Your own AI, Claude, ChatGPT or Grok, works with a plan through Geenius OS, on every plan: it builds the model from your answers, writes the sections with placeholders for figures, runs the truth guard and exports Markdown. **You** confirm the numbers.

> [!HONEST]
> Your AI can write fluent text, and Business Plan will refuse any figure that is not a cell of your model. Cells it cannot know stay marked as open until you confirm them, and the plan stays a draft until you do. Plans are orientation, not legal, tax or financial advice.

## Connect it

Add Business Plan to your Geenius OS workspace and connect your AI to Geenius OS once, by the steps in the Geenius OS docs. Your AI then has a tool called `geenius_bizplan`.

## How a call looks

The tool is `plan`, and the action is one of its verbs.

```json title="List the templates"
{ "tool": "plan", "action": "plan_templates", "args": {} }
```

## Your first ask

```text title="A first ask"
Use Geenius OS and Business Plan. I run a bicycle repair shop for commuters in Utrecht. Start a model from the shop template for NL, tell me which numbers you need from me, and write nothing with a figure until I have confirmed them.
```

Your AI creates the model, lists what is open, and waits for your numbers.

## The tool

::mcp-tools

Ask for the actions with `action: "help"`, and for one action with `of`.

## Habits that work

- **Ask what is open first.** `plan_model_read` with view `open` lists every cell still marked for you.
- **Write placeholders.** `{{pl.revenue.Y1}}`, never typed digits.
- **Check often.** `plan_content_check` lists figures that do not match and sections that are missing.
- **Keep the revision.** Edits can name the revision they read, so two writers do not overwrite each other.

## What your AI cannot do

It cannot make a figure up: the truth guard refuses it. It cannot confirm an owner's numbers for them or finalise a plan with open inputs. It cannot export a DOCX: the export is PDF and Markdown.
