A clean, organized tracking plan helps you get the most value from Amplitude Data. When you have hundreds or thousands of events and properties, maintaining the plan can be difficult, especially when identifying what to fix in messy data.

Amplitude's AI Data Assistant helps you maintain your tracking plan by showing a short list of suggested modifications whenever you visit the Data home page. Amplitude's internal AI generates these suggestions automatically. Any changes you apply through Data Assistant post directly to your tracking plan, with no other action required.

## Update your tracking plan with Data Assistant

To update your tracking plan using Data Assistant, follow these steps:

1. Open Amplitude Data. Data Assistant appears at the top of the home page, displaying a list of top suggestions.

   Data Assistant orders suggestions by priority, which it determines by looking at event volume, query counts, and other signals.
2. Select a specific suggestion to review by clicking _Review_, or review all suggestions by clicking _Review All_. The Assistant page opens.
3. The left sidebar lists all suggested modifications for your tracking plan. Click any suggestion to see the events the suggestion affects.

Data Assistant groups similar suggestions together to rank the most important issues and make the update process easier.

For more detail on why Data Assistant made a specific suggestion, hover over the Info icon.

You can apply the suggestion to all, some, or none of the events listed. To apply them all, click _Apply All_. To apply none, click _Reject All_.

To apply (or reject) the suggestion for only certain events, check the boxes for those events and click _Apply Suggestions_ (or _Reject Suggestions_), or click _Apply_ (or _X_) next to each event you want to update.

## Detect semantically similar events

Data Assistant detects events that are semantically similar, such as `Order Placed` and `Completed Purchase`, which people and AI find hard to tell apart. When it finds these events, it suggests one of two fixes: merge the events with a transformation, or draft descriptions that clarify how each event differs from the other.

## Use Data Assistant interactively

Beyond the suggestions panel on the Data home page, you can work with Data Assistant interactively through Global Chat or by creating an Agent in the _Agents_ section. In a single conversation, you can ask your own questions, run custom audits, and act on the results. You can apply bulk actions to as many as 1,000 items at once, and you can dismiss any suggestions you don't want to act on.

## Automated tasks in Data Assistant

Data Assistant provides automated tasks to help you clean up your data. Automated tasks let data governors define conditions and actions that the system performs automatically. Automated tasks automate repetitive clean-up workflows by turning Data Assistant recommendations into automatic actions.
