What types of artifact can the AI produce?
The AI can produce seven types of artifact, each suited to different kinds of output.
Document — a text-based output like an email, a summary, a proposal, or a draft. Good for content you'll copy, paste, or edit further.
Web page (HTML) — a styled, formatted page. Good for one-pagers, visual reports, or anything that benefits from layout and design beyond plain text.
Spreadsheet — a downloadable Excel file. Good for structured data, tables, and anything you'd want to work with in Excel.
PDF — a print-ready document. Good for formal outputs you want to send or file as-is.
Presentation — a PowerPoint slide deck. Good for content you'll present or share in a meeting.
Chart — an interactive chart you can view and explore in the Preview panel.
Interactive component — a richer, interactive experience built on the Evo platform, shown directly in Researcher.
Once an artifact is created, its type is fixed. If you want the same content in a different format — say, a document turned into a presentation — just ask the AI to produce it again as a different type.
Artifacts, uploads, and attachments — what's the difference?
These three things are easy to confuse but serve different purposes.
An upload is a file you add to the project — a document, a spreadsheet, your source material. The AI can search across it throughout the project.
An attachment is a file you drop into a single chat message for the AI to look at in that moment. It doesn't persist anywhere after that turn.
An artifact is something the AI has created and saved for you. It lives in the Artifacts tab, can be downloaded, and stays with the project.
How does the AI decide to create an artifact?
Most of the time, the AI will create an artifact automatically when your request is the kind of thing you'd want to keep — a report, a deck, a set of meeting notes. You'll see it appear in the Preview panel as it's being written.
If the AI responds in chat instead and you'd prefer a saved artifact, just ask: "Can you save that as something I can download?" and it will.
Downloading and sharing
From the Preview panel or the Artifacts tab, each artifact gives you a few options.
Copy — copies the content in a format ready to paste into Outlook, Word, or similar. For documents and emails, use this rather than manually selecting the text — it preserves the formatting correctly.
Download — saves the artifact to your device in its native format (a spreadsheet as an Excel file, a presentation as a PowerPoint file, and so on).
Export as PDF — for documents and web pages, converts the artifact to PDF and downloads it.
Delete — removes the artifact from the project.
Practical limits
There's no hard cap on artifact length, but very large artifacts — a 200-slide deck, a spreadsheet with thousands of rows — take longer to produce and can run into the AI's natural output limits.
If you're asking for something very large, the simplest workaround is to break it into sections: ask the AI to produce each part separately and download them as individual artifacts.
