  1. Chat

    Answers stream in, and you can follow up on them

    Chat is now a conversation, not one page per question. The direct answer appears first while the rest of the page fills in.

    • Ask a follow-up such as “shorter” or “as a table” and Ansi rewrites the previous answer.
    • Finished chats stay in this browser; search, rename and pin your recent ones.
    Start a chat
  2. Chat

    Speak a question, listen to the answer, and reshape it with a slash

    Small tools that make a long answer easier to use.

    • Voice input where your browser supports it, and Listen on every answer.
    • Type /shorter, /table, /simpler or /checklist to reshape the last answer, or /hindi to rewrite it in simple Hindi; start a question with /deep or /quick to choose how detailed the answer is.
    • Copy any section, copy a table as CSV, or export the whole chat as Markdown.
    Try a command
  3. Modes

    Shopping Helper finds a top pick and alternatives within your budget

    Say what you want and what you can spend; Ansi lays out the options and what to check before you buy.

    • Every price names the store and the date it was seen; a price Ansi could not confirm says so.
    • A price-against-budget view, a side-by-side compare and a before-you-buy checklist.
    • Prices are for India in rupees unless you name another country or store. Store links open a search, not a checkout.
    Open Shopping Helper
  4. Modes

    Code Runner turns a description into code you can run

    Describe a small program and get the code, what to install, the command to run it and the output to expect.

    • Simple Python and JavaScript run right in your browser, stopping after 10 seconds or 2,000 lines of output.
    • Code that needs extra packages, typed input or the internet is shown with its run steps instead.
    Open Code Runner
  5. Modes

    One clear list of what Ansi can do

    The modes catalog lists each mode once, grouped as Ask, Decide, Create, Plan and Improve.

    • Every mode carries a plain status, from “Open now” and “In testing” to “Coming soon”.
    • “What Ansi can do” describes every mode in plain words, with questions to try.

  6. Guides

    Type a keyword and get a full guide page

    The new guides hub shows example searches and a live preview of the page a keyword builds.

    • Filter topics by area and page type; “Jump back in” lists the ones you opened in this browser.
    • A search with no match offers to build a page for it instead of a dead end.

  2. Places

    Place Explorer plans a trip to a Delhi NCR place

    Name a place and see its weather, nearby spots, a route on the map and estimated ride fares.

    • Search the catalog by typing; everyday sentences such as “mujhe qutub ghumna hai” still find the place.
    • Fares are estimates from public rate cards, and hand-written ratings are marked as samples.
