# What is Tuhi in Storage Studio?

Tuhi is Storage Studio's built-in storage assistant. You type a question into the **Ask box** on the Home screen — "how much space do I have?", "what's using my disk?" — and Tuhi answers in plain English from your Mac's real numbers, then shows a button and the steps to get to the right screen.

Tuhi is powered by Apple Intelligence where your Mac supports it, and it runs entirely on your Mac: your questions and your files never leave your device.

It can help with:

- your free space and what's using it
- how every Storage Studio feature works
- cloud accounts and online-only files
- what's happening in the background
- why your Mac feels slow, hot or short on memory

See [the Tuhi manual page](https://storagestudio.us/manual/assistant) for a tour.
