Canvas

What is Canvas

Canvas is an extended interface of Agent mode that enables the AI assistant to generate and manage structured visual content. This technology allows the AI not only to converse but also to create, edit, and present rich multimedia content, including interactive web components, charts, documents, and code.

In traditional conversational AI, assistants can only provide plain text responses. Canvas technology breaks this limitation and allows the AI assistant to:

• Create visual content in real time

• Generate interactive components

• Provide structured information presentation

• Support real-time code rendering

Core features

Canvas technology extends traditional text-only dialogue into visual content creation, enabling businesses to:

• Real-time content generation: The AI can immediately create content in various formats based on user needs

• Interactive editing: Users can directly interact with and modify generated content

• Multi-format support: Supports multiple content formats such as HTML, React, SVG, Markdown, Mermaid, and more

• Seamless integration: Perfectly integrates into the dialogue flow to provide a more intuitive user experience

• Professional quality: Generated content meets professional design and development standards

• Live preview: WYSIWYG content editing experience

Technical advantages

1. Intelligent content recognition: The AI can automatically determine when to use Canvas to present content

2. Format adaptability: Automatically selects the most suitable presentation format based on content characteristics

3. Real-time rendering: Provides real-time visual effect previews

4. Cross-platform compatibility: Ensures consistent performance across different devices and platforms

5. Performance optimization: Uses advanced rendering techniques to ensure a smooth user experience

Intelligent judgment logic

Without specially configured role instructions, the Agent will decide whether to use Canvas based on the following factors:

1. Content complexity: Structured content preferably uses Canvas

   • Tables, lists, hierarchical structures

   • Multi-step process descriptions

   • Comparative analysis content

2. Interaction requirements: Content that requires user interaction

   • Form design

   • Buttons and controls

   • Dynamic data presentation
