# Creating logic with AI
> Describe what your backend should do in plain words. Archie works out which functions you need, asks about anything unclear, and lets you choose what to generate.
**Add With AI** turns a plain-language description into a set of functions. It takes two steps: describe what should happen, then choose what to generate.
## Step 1: describe it
In the **Add Logic** dialog, select **Add With AI** and click **Continue**. The first step is titled **Add Logic With AI** and reads **Step 1 of 2 · Describe It**.
1. Type what should happen in **What Should Happen?**. For example: "When an inspection fails, notify the owner, open a work order and update the risk score."
2. Optionally click **Improve** to refine your description.
3. Choose a **Language**: **Node.js**, **Python**, **Go**, **.NET**, **Java**, or **Let Archie Decide**.
4. Click **Continue**, or press ⌘ + Enter.
### Suggestions from your data
Under **Suggested from your data**, Archie lists ready-made descriptions based on your data model. Each one shows how many functions it expects and how they relate, such as "3 functions · side by side" or "4 functions · one feeds 3". Select one to fill in the description.
## Step 2: choose what to generate
The second step is titled **Step 2 of 2 · Choose What to Generate**. Archie summarizes how it understood your request and shows what it plans to build.
* **Questions.** When something is unclear, Archie asks. A question offers options, or a text box with an **Answer** button, and Archie marks its recommendation. Answer it, or click **Skip**.
* **Service.** The service name Archie proposes, such as `bug-resolution`. Names are 3–40 characters: lowercase letters, numbers, and single hyphens, starting with a letter. You can edit it.
* **Language.** The language Archie chose, or the one you picked. You can change it.
* **Functions.** Each function has a checkbox and a short description. Clear the checkbox for any function you don't want. Click **Add Function** to add one of your own.
The footer shows how many functions are selected. Click **Edit Description** to go back to step 1, or **Cancel** to close the dialog without creating anything. When you're ready, click **Generate**, or press ⌘ + Enter.
> [!NOTE]
>
> Archie generates only the functions you leave selected. Nothing is created until you click **Generate**.
## After you create the service
After Archie generates the functions, open the service. Review the code in the [Code tab](https://archie.com/docs/backend/logic/working-with-a-service.md), then [deploy it](https://archie.com/docs/backend/logic/deployments.md) to make the functions callable. Set any [environment variables](https://archie.com/docs/backend/logic/environment-variables.md) the code needs before you deploy.
## FAQ
> **Why do the suggestions mention my own tables?**
>
> Suggestions are built from your data model, so they reference the tables and fields in your project.
> **Can I create more than one service?**
>
> Not yet. Each project can have one service. See [Logic](https://archie.com/docs/backend/logic.md#one-service-per-project).
> **What if I want to start from code instead?**
>
> Use [From Scratch](https://archie.com/docs/backend/logic/from-scratch.md) or [From a Code Repository](https://archie.com/docs/backend/logic/from-a-repository.md).
