# Image Ask

> Ask AI about an image and get an answer back.

**Image Ask** lets you hand an image to AI and ask about it. Add a screenshot or
photo, type your question, and get an answer — for reading an error, explaining
a diagram, or pulling text out of a picture.

## Open it

Choose **Image Ask** from the Dax menu bar.

## Use it

<Steps>
  <Step title="Add an image">
    Drag in an image, paste from your clipboard, or pick a file.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Ask about it">
    Type your question — what you want explained, extracted, or checked.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Read the answer">
    Dax responds based on what's in the image.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  Screenshot a stack trace or a full error dialog and ask "what's causing this?"
  — no retyping the message.
</Tip>

## Great for

* Explaining an error message or log screenshot
* Reading a chart, diagram, or table
* Pulling text out of an image you can't select

<Note>
  Just need a link to the image instead? Use [Image to URL](/tools/image-to-url).
  Want a prompt that recreates it? Use [Image to Prompt](/tools/image-to-prompt).
