Artifacts and canvases

When the assistant produces a thing it pops into a side panel.

When the assistant produces something self-contained — a document, code, a webpage — it pops out into a side panel. Claude calls them artifacts; ChatGPT calls it Canvas; Gemini calls it Canvas too. Same idea, different label.

What can I help with?

This is a faithful imitation. Click a suggestion or type your own message.

What counts

  • Long write-ups, briefs, plans
  • Single files of code
  • Mini-apps that preview live (HTML/React)
  • Diagrams (Mermaid flowcharts, sequence)

Casual replies stay in the conversation. Anything you'd want to keep moves to the panel, where you can edit, iterate, copy, or download.
