Knows FileMaker's Function Library
The AI has the complete FileMaker calculation function reference built in. It won't suggest functions that don't exist or get syntax wrong.
FileMaker AI Assistant
Get Correct FileMaker Scripts and Calculations — Without the Hallucinations
Not a generic chatbot. FM Dojo's AI is built for FileMaker — it knows the function library, script steps, relationship model, and best practices. Ask it anything about your database.

FileMaker answer
Use GetFieldName for schema-safe references, then validate the script step before export.
Features
Built for FileMaker, Not Bolted On
Understands Your Schema
Connect your FileMaker database or upload a Snapshot and the AI knows your table names, field names, and relationships. No copying and pasting schema into every question.
Script Step Expert
Ask for a complete script and get valid FileMaker script steps — not pseudocode. The AI understands script context, flow control, and error handling patterns.
Conversation Memory
Conversations have context. Follow-up questions build on what you've already discussed. Organize chats into folders by project or client.
Attach Files & Screenshots
Paste a screenshot of a broken layout, attach a PDF spec, or share a text file. The AI can read and reason about all of them.
Image Paste from Clipboard
Cmd+V a screenshot directly into chat. The AI analyzes FileMaker layouts, error dialogs, and data displays without you having to describe them.
AI Assistance
Built Into the FM Dojo Workspace
The assistant is not only one chat box. FM Dojo uses FileMaker-aware AI across the places where developers plan, inspect, build, automate, and deploy work.
AI Chat
Ask FileMaker-specific questions about scripts, calculations, ExecuteSQL, relationships, JSON, and performance.
Snapshots
Analyze SaveAsXML imports, inspect schema, explain issues, and ask AI to help fix snapshot findings.
LiveConnect
Keep schema context current from a server connection so AI answers can use real tables, fields, layouts, and scripts.
Staged Changes
Ask AI to create or modify scripts, fields, and layout objects, then review proposed changes before pushing.
Code Editor
Validate FileMaker calculations, scripts, SQL, JSON, and JavaScript with AI review and highlighted problem lines.
Script Builder
Generate complete FileMaker scripts and validate them before copying native XML into FileMaker Pro.
Flows
Use the AI Flow Assistant to build flows, write FileMaker trigger scripts, and explain failed flow runs.
Deployments
Ask the AI Debug Assistant about deployment logs, failed runs, next steps, and screenshots from the deploy process.
Server Tools
Analyze FileMaker Server logs, backup schema details, and operational problems with FileMaker-aware context.
Diagrams
Generate and clean up relationship diagrams from plain-English descriptions or existing FileMaker structure.
Data & JSON Tools
Generate demo schemas, create realistic test data, and build or validate FileMaker JSON functions.
Comparison
FM Dojo AI vs Generic ChatGPT
| Generic AI | FM Dojo AI | |
|---|---|---|
| Knows FileMaker function syntax | Sometimes wrong | Always accurate |
| Uses your actual field names | You paste schema every time | Loaded automatically |
| Script steps are valid FileMaker | Often pseudocode | Paste directly into FileMaker |
| Understands relationships | Generic DB advice | FM relationship model aware |
| No hallucinated functions | Invents functions that don't exist | Only uses real FM functions |
What developers say
Built for FileMaker developers, used by FileMaker developers
“I just asked it for syntax I could paste into the Data Viewer to transform some JSON. At first the code it generated wasn't working, so I told it the error — at which point it a) told me what mistake it had made, and then b) produced working code. And this solved a real-world challenge for me.”
Kevin Frank
“Currently, I am using it for two tasks. One, write complex calculations, especially While loops. Two, review complex scripts and suggestion recommendations. It is easily worth 10x the price for the peace of mind it will provide for production systems.”
Kirk Bowman
“I shared some pared down instructions to create a script to help me build a contact de-duplication approach based on my contact's phone or email. It knew how to traverse the schema perfectly based on names, and wrote steps reassembling all the child data under the new unified/deduped contact, all within a single pass loop. I copied XML out of FM Dojo and directly pasted it into FileMaker without a hitch.”

How It Works
Three Steps to Better FileMaker Answers
1
Connect your database
Link a live FileMaker Server or upload a Snapshot. The AI learns your schema: tables, fields, layouts, and scripts.
2
Ask anything
Type your question in plain English. Script help, calculation debugging, relationship design, performance problems — no topic is off limits.
3
Get production-ready answers
Copy scripts and calculations directly into FileMaker Pro. No rewriting or adapting generic code.
FAQ
Common Questions
Is this just ChatGPT with a FileMaker prompt?
No. FM Dojo uses ChatGPT with an extensive FileMaker-specific system prompt, real-time schema injection, and a continuously updated function reference. The results are meaningfully better than a generic AI for FileMaker work.
Does it know my specific database?
Yes. Import a SaveAsXML into Snapshots or use a server connection and LiveConnect.
Can it write complete scripts?
Yes. Ask for a complete script and you'll receive valid FileMaker XML that can be pasted directly into FileMaker Pro using the clipboard — no plugins required.
