Canvas
What is Canvas
Canvas is an extension interface of the Agent mode that enables AI assistants to generate and manage structured visual content. This technology allows AI to not only engage in conversations but also create, edit, and present rich multimedia content, including interactive web components, charts, documents, and code.
In traditional conversational AI, assistants could only provide text responses, but Canvas technology breaks this limitation, enabling AI assistants to:
Create real-time visualizations
Generate interactive components
Provide structured information presentation
Support real-time code rendering
Core Features
Canvas technology extends traditional text-based conversations to visual content creation, enabling businesses to:
Real-time Content Generation: AI can instantly create various formats of content based on user needs
Interactive Editing: Users can directly interact with and modify generated content
Multi-format Support: Supports HTML, React, SVG, Markdown, Mermaid, and other content formats
Seamless Integration: Perfect integration into conversation flow, providing more intuitive user experience
Professional Quality: Generated content meets professional design and development standards
Real-time Preview: WYSIWYG content editing experience
Technical Advantages
