# Tools Overview

> How to use tools with UtopikAI

**Tools** are a way to give an Assistant additional capabilities. They allow the assistant to do things like:

1. Fetch information from an external source (e.g. a database, an API, the Internet, etc.)
2. Perform actions (e.g. write to a database, send an email, etc.)
3. Generate content (e.g. generate an Image, create a plot, etc.)

By default, we have a three tools built-in to UtopikAI. These are:

* `SearchTool`. This is the core of UtopikAI. Adding this tool to an Assistant allows
  it to search over the knowledge you've connected up to UtopikAI through `Connectors`.
  This is the only tool available to the default `UtopikAI` assistant.
* `ImageGenerationTool`. This leverages DALLE-3 to generate images.
* `InternetSearchTool`. This uses Bing and Google to search the internet.
