![](https://www.servicenow.com/docs/portal-asset/ico-clock) 1 minute to read  
The AI Data Kit plugin for Now Assist enables you to add datasets to a data catalog and create collections for use in ServiceNow SDK.

## AI Data Kit overview {#exploring-now-assist-data-kit__cf-exploring-parent-overview}

If the base system Now Assist skills don't fit your needs, you can use AI Data Kit to create custom datasets and data collections that can be used in AI Skill Kit for evaluation.

## AI Data Kit users {#exploring-now-assist-data-kit__cf-exploring-parent-users}
