Step-by-Step Instructions: How to Use CustodyBuddy GPT
Step 1: Start with Privacy Policy Agreement
- When you open the chat, you will see the following message:
"Welcome to CustodyBuddy! Before we begin, please review our Privacy Policy. To proceed with this chat, please confirm that you agree to the policy by typing 'Yes'."
- Type 'Yes' to confirm your agreement. Without this confirmation, the chat will not proceed.
Step 2: Describe the Incident
After agreeing to the Privacy Policy, the system will ask how it can assist you. Provide a brief description of the incident in your own words.
Example:
"My ex canceled visitation without notifying me."
It’s okay if your description is emotional or informal—the GPT will transform it into a professional summary.
Step 3: Provide Additional Details (If Needed)
If critical details are missing (e.g., the date of the incident), the system will prompt you for them.
Example prompt:
"Could you let me know when this incident happened?"
Step 4: Review the Generated Summary
Once all the information is provided, the system will create a structured, professional summary. Here’s an example of what the output might look like:
| Date | Incident Type | Severity | Description | Professional Summary |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| [Date] | Cancelled Visitations | Medium | My ex canceled visitation without notifying me. | On [Date], a medium-severity incident occurred when the other parent canceled a scheduled visitation without prior notice, causing disruption to the agreed schedule. |
Step 5: Save or Share the Report
Once the summary is generated:
- Copy and save the table for your records.
- Share the summary with your legal representative, mediator, or other relevant parties as needed.
Tips for Best Results:
- Be Specific: Include dates, times, and any court order details when describing the incident.
- Stay Factual: Focus on what happened; avoid exaggerations or assumptions.
- Ask Questions: If you’re unsure about what to include, ask for clarification.
Following these steps ensures that you generate a clear and professional report suitable for custody-related documentation. If you have further questions, feel free to ask!
