Upload full textbook chapters

Ask for an interactive visual flowchart
Type: "Create a visual Artifact flowchart showing how the stages of cellular respiration connect." Claude draws it live next to your chat.
Audit your essay logic (without AI writing it)
Paste your rough draft and ask: "Act as a strict professor. Point out where my thesis is weak or where my paragraphs repeat."
