Step-by-Step Guide
- 1Type your question in the chat box at the bottom of the screen
- 2Or click the microphone icon 🎤 to ask using your voice
- 3Press Enter or click the Send button
- 4Read the explanation that appears - it's written just for you!
- 5If there's a visualization, it appears on the right side - you can interact with it!
Try These Example Questions
Copy and paste these, or use them as inspiration for your own questions!
For Biology:
"Explain how photosynthesis works"
For Chemistry:
"Show me a 3D model of a water molecule"
For Physics:
"Create an animation of the solar system"
For Physics:

- • Math functions and equations
- • Data visualization
- • Scientific diagrams
3D Models
Rotate, zoom, and explore 3D objects. Perfect for:
- • Molecules and atoms
- • Geometric shapes
- • 3D structures
Physics Simulations
Watch physics in action! Great for:
