Chat
AI chat that keeps the working context together
Bring a question and its source material into one conversation, then choose the model and tools that fit the task.

Keep the evidence near the answer
- Continue a conversation with its history intact.
- Attach files for document preparation and search.
- Turn optional web research on only when the task needs it.
Illustrative transcript: a file is attached before the model prepares an answer.
A thread for the work, not just the prompt
Attach context, ask the question, then inspect the answer and tool steps in the same conversation.
For research, writing, and everyday analysis
Use Chat when the useful unit of work is a conversation with source material and a deliberate model choice.
