\ OpenAI has recently launched a new feature called Canvas for ChatGPT, designed to enhance users’ interactions with AI for writing and coding projects. This new interface aims to provide a more collaborative and interactive experience, moving beyond the traditional chat format. In this article, I’ll cover the top features of ChatGPT Canvas and show how to use it.
What is Canvas?
Canvas is an innovative interface that allows users to work on writing and coding tasks in a separate window alongside the main ChatGPT chat window. It provides a workspace where users can generate, edit, and refine their content more efficiently. This feature is currently available in beta for ChatGPT Plus and Teams users, with plans to extend access to all users once it exits beta. It’s almost the same as the Claude Artifacts, but in Canvas, you don’t have the ability to run the code.

Key Features of Canvas
Enhanced Collaboration
Canvas opens a separate window for your projects, allowing you to collaborate with ChatGPT more effectively. You can highlight specific sections of text or code to receive targeted edits or suggestions from the AI.

Writing
Canvas offers several features to improve your content:
\
Adjust Length: You can easily shorten or lengthen your document.
Change Reading Level: Adjust the complexity of your text to suit different audiences, from kindergarten level to graduate school.
Add Final Polish: ChatGPT can refine your text for grammar, clarity, and consistency.
Emojis and Formatting: Add emojis for emphasis and use basic markdown formatting for better presentation.
\
You can do all of this with just a click on the icon. So easy :)
Coding Assistance
\ Other cool features will be helpful for programmers.
Code Review: Get suggestions for improving your code.
Add Comments: Automatically generate inline documentation to explain code sections.
Debugging: Identify and fix bugs in your code with ease.
Language Translation: Convert code between different programming languages with just a few clicks.

How to Use ChatGPT Canvas
To start using Canvas, select “GPT-4o with canvas” from the model selector on the ChatGPT dashboard. The interface will automatically open when ChatGPT detects that a separate workspace could be beneficial, such as for more extended outputs or complex coding tasks.
\
\ Users can also manually trigger Canvas by including “use canvas” in their prompts.
