An AI assistant that actually knows your garden
Siltwell has a built-in connector for Claude and ChatGPT. Once connected, your assistant answers from your real beds, plantings, frost dates, and journal — and can log things for you. Free, on every Siltwell account.
Illustrative conversation — the answers come from your garden's actual beds, dates, and journal, not canned examples.
Why it's different
Generic AI gives generic advice.
Ask a chatbot when to plant spinach and you'll get an answer for an average garden in an average year. Connected to Siltwell, the same question is answered from your data: your beds and what's in them, your zone and frost dates, what you planted last season, and what your journal says actually happened.
It's not a chatbot bolted into the app — it's your own assistant, wherever you already use it, with your garden as context.
Setup
Connected in about two minutes.
- In Siltwell, open Settings → Claude connector and copy your connector link.
- In Claude, go to Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector and paste it. (ChatGPT and other assistants with custom-connector support work the same way.)
- Sign in with your Siltwell account and approve access. No API keys, nothing to install — and you can disconnect from your assistant's settings anytime.
What it can do
It reads your garden — and takes notes when you ask.
It can see
- Your beds, layout, and what's planted where
- Your planting plan and season timeline
- Journal events, harvest totals, and history
- Your forecast, frost dates, and station readings
It can do
- Log events and record harvests as you mention them
- Add, move, or update plantings and beds
- Plan what to sow next and set care schedules
- Even set up a new garden or connect a station
Twenty-nine tools under the hood — and every change it makes lands in your journal and timeline like anything you'd log yourself, so nothing happens invisibly.
Your data
Your garden stays yours.
Access is granted by you, to your account, through a normal sign-in — the assistant never sees your password. It's part of the free tier and stays that way, and as always: your data is yours to export or delete, and we don't sell it.
