Academic Poster: More intuitive, suitable for academic exchanges and result display scenarios, upload papers to generate with visualized research highlights.

2.1.1 Quick Mode

Quick Mode is currently the default conversation. In this mode, you can directly converse with the model through a more concise and efficient process.

2.1.2 Deep Research Mode

Select the "Deep Research" button at the bottom of the homepage dialog box to use Deep Research Mode.

In this mode, a single-agent closed-loop (AgentLoop) architecture is adopted. The agent thinks about your question and outputs an answer.

The system consists of two parts: Process (left) and Workspace (right). The left Process Area displays the current execution process, including thinking process, execution details, and final generated results. The right Workspace contains three sections: "Tasks" shows output results of agent execution steps; "Information" summarizes information collected through skills, web sources, and literature databases; "Files" displays all files generated for the current task.

2.1.3 Deep Survey

Select the "Deep Survey" button below the homepage dialog box to use Deep Survey Mode.

In this mode, you can input your research questions to obtain professional reviews of tens of thousands of words. Before starting the task, you can select literature libraries, online sources, and target language.

After the task starts, the agent extracts detailed information such as titles and keywords of the review, generates a modifiable review outline, and waits for your confirmation before continuing execution.

After task completion, the system displays the complete the literature review report including abstract, main text, and references. Click "Download" to download the full report in PDF, Word, or MD format.

2.1.4 Academic PPT

Select the "Academic PPT" button below the homepage dialog box to enter Academic PPT generation mode. Support clicking the upload area to open local file selection, or directly dragging and dropping local files for upload. The system supports uploading 1 PDF, DOC, or DOCX format academic paper, with file size within 20MB. Before uploading, you can select output language (Chinese/English, English by default) and theme color. The system will generate corresponding PPT content based on your selected language. Hovering over the upload area displays format and size requirement prompts. Clear error prompts will appear if documents do not comply with requirements.

After successful file upload, the system automatically executes four stages of intelligent processing. First, academic paper structure and core content analysis: the system reads the source file and analyzes paper content and chart information, displaying detailed processing logs in the workspace during analysis. Second, it extracts key information and builds presentation outline: the system generates a complete PPT outline structure displayed in markdown format, supporting user customization of the outline at this point. Third, it generates PPT content and visual layout page by page: real-time generation status is shown through progress bars, with parallel generation logs for each page displayed in the workspace. Final, it completes document compilation and prepares for download: the system processes the final PPTX file to ensure compliance with academic presentation standards.

Throughout the generation process, the workspace displays three main content modules in real-time. The Tasks module shows detailed processing logs including the complete process records of file reading, content analysis, outline generation, and PPT production. The Information module provides source paper preview and list display of images and charts extracted from the paper, allowing you to check processing progress and content quality at any time. The Files module displays output content by stage, including outline markdown files, PPT markdown files, etc. After final completion, a download page pops up directly or a complete file list is displayed, with classification management by final result files and task process files.

The system provides comprehensive task control functions, including collapsible task progress panels that display task planning steps, execution status, start time, and remaining time in real-time. Users can manually pause or interrupt tasks, and choose to regenerate after stopping. All task processes are displayed in real-time in the left sidebar, with notification center push notifications upon completion.

After the entire generation process is completed, the system supports file downloads. You can click corresponding files to download PDF/PPTX format files.

2.1.5 Academic Illustration

Select the "Academic Illustration" button below the homepage dialog box to enter Academic Illustration mode. You can describe the required academic illustration content in natural language. The system supports professional illustration needs across various research fields, such as molecular structure diagrams, experimental flowcharts, data visualization charts, etc.

After submitting illustration requirements, the system automatically executes two key steps to complete illustration generation. First, academic illustration requirement understanding and relevance assessment: the system analyzes your description content, judges whether it meets academic illustration requirements, and evaluates content safety and compliance. After passing assessment, the system calls the image model for academic illustration drawing, generating professional academic-style images based on your requirements, and adds AI-generated watermarks to identify the source. After illustration generation is completed, the system displays academic illustration generation results. Support using like/dislike functions to provide feedback on generated results, helping the system continuously optimize.

Hovering over the image displays a download button, allowing you to save the illustration locally for use. Clicking the image enlarges it to view details.

Additionally, the system supports multi-turn conversations to refine illustration effects. You can continue to propose modification suggestions or new illustration requirements in the current conversation until meeting your academic needs.

2.1.6 Academic Poster

Select the "Academic Poster" button below the homepage dialog box to enter Academic Poster generation mode. Support clicking the upload area to open local file selection, or directly dragging and dropping local files for upload. The system supports uploading 1 PDF, DOC, or DOCX format academic paper, with file size within 20MB.

Before task start, you can configure output language (Chinese/English, English by default), size, and theme color. The system will generate corresponding poster content based on your selected language. Hovering over the upload area displays format and size requirement prompts. Clear error prompts will appear if documents do not comply with requirements.

After task start, the system automatically executes four stages of intelligent processing. First, academic paper structure and core content analysis: the system reads the source file and analyzes paper content and chart information, displaying detailed processing logs in the workspace during analysis. Second, it extracts key information and builds chapter structure: the system generates a complete poster outline structure displayed in markdown format. Third, it generates poster content and visual layout: real-time generation status is shown through progress bars, with parallel generation logs for each page displayed in the workspace. Final, it completes document compilation and prepares for download: the system processes final PPTX and PNG file formats to ensure compliance with academic display standards.

Throughout the generation process, the workspace displays three main content modules in real-time. The Tasks module shows detailed processing logs including the complete process records of file reading, content analysis, outline generation, and poster production. The Information module provides source paper preview and list display of images and charts extracted from the paper, allowing you to check processing progress and content quality at any time. The File module displays output content by stage, including outline markdown files, PPT markdown, PNG files. After final completion, the poster and complete file list are displayed directly, with classification management by final result files and task process files.

The system provides comprehensive task control functions, including collapsible task progress panels that display task planning steps, execution status, start time, and remaining time in real-time. Users can manually pause or interrupt tasks, and choose to regenerate after stopping. All task processes are displayed in real-time in the left sidebar, with notification center push notifications upon completion.
