How to find and add strategies

Inside the BIP editor, the left sidebar is your strategy search panel. It shows a browsable, searchable list of visual strategy cards you can add to the canvas.

To search for a strategy:

1. Type a keyword in

   the Search field at the top of the sidebar — for example, "praise," "waiting," "AAC," or "token."

2. Matching strategy cards appear in real time below the search bar.

3. Scroll through the results. Each card shows a visual illustration, strategy name, and goal category (Teach, Prevent, etc.).

To add a strategy to the canvas:

1. Find the strategy in the sidebar that you want to add.

2. Click the card. It will be added to the appropriate quadrant on the canvas based on its category.

3. The strategy card appears on the canvas, connected to the other strategies by arrows that show the plan's clinical flow.

The canvas is divided into four quadrants:

• Teach (top left) — proactive skill-building strategies

• Prevent (bottom left) — strategies that reduce triggers

• Respond: Reinforcement (top right) — responses to desired behavior

• Respond: Behavior Management (bottom right) — responses to challenging behavior

Tip: Use the zoom controls (magnifying glass icons in the top-left of the editor) to zoom out and see your full plan at once, or zoom in to read individual card details.
