# Ask questions of your data

> Ask a Helix Foundry ontology questions in plain language and get answers that cite where they came from. Coming soon.

<div className="flex flex-wrap gap-2"><Badge color="blue" size="sm">Guide</Badge><Badge color="yellow" size="sm">Preview</Badge></div>

<Note>
  Ask is coming to Helix Foundry and isn't available yet. This page will cover it when it
  ships.
</Note>

Ask will let you question an ontology's data in plain language and see where each
answer came from.

Until then, read the same data in the [Explorer](/foundry/explore/explorer) and
[Records](/foundry/explore/records-and-entities).
