# How is the Junk Yard different from Tuhi?

**Tuhi** is Storage Studio's on-device assistant: you ask it questions about your Mac's storage and it answers or takes you to the right place. The **Junk Yard** is a board for the things you copy and the quick notes you jot.

They share a design principle — the clever parts run on your Mac — and on Macs with Apple Intelligence, the Junk Yard's **Smart find** uses it to search by meaning. See the [Tuhi questions](https://storagestudio.us/faq/tuhi-assistant/).
