Canvas

Show, don't scroll. Work opens beside the chat.

When words aren't enough, the agent opens a canvas next to the conversation: a diagram, a clickable mockup, a whiteboard it draws on as it explains, or the diff it just made.

Diagram
  1. 01

    Ask

    Ask for a diagram, a mockup or an explanation of how some code works.

  2. 02

    See it

    It opens as a canvas beside the chat: an artifact, a board, or an explainer with references to the exact lines.

  3. 03

    Iterate

    Ask for a change and a new revision appears. Open it fullscreen or share it.

The details

Questions

What is an artifact?

A self-contained page the agent makes for you: a Diagram, Mockup, Interactive or Document. Each change is kept as a revision, and you can open it fullscreen or share it.

Can it draw on a whiteboard?

Yes. Boards are Excalidraw canvases. The agent draws while it explains, and the board is saved so it reopens as you left it.
