Welcome to Atlas
Atlas is the map / exploration chassis — travel-journal aesthetic, cartographic styling, organized around courses (research projects). Designed for learning, study, travel planning, and structured exploration.
What's where
- Top bar: History and New chat are on the left. Chat controls in the header include the model picker, Nyquest / BYOK, DynaRAG, and Optimize. The right side holds account controls, the palette button (chassis picker), Help, and the circular navigation button.
- Main panel: chat styled like journal entries with date markers, indented model replies, and inline link previews when URLs come up. Tables render as map-legend-style boxes.
- Workspace navigation: the circular button on the right of the header opens Chat, Studios, Splicer, Agents, Vault, and More. Usage, API keys, providers, settings, and admin (if available) live under More.
- Phones: the model stays visible in the header. Open Chat controls for BYOK, DynaRAG, and Optimize; use the circular navigation button for workspace destinations and the header Menu drawer for conversations, account controls, and the chassis picker.
- History: the History button in the top bar slides your lessons in over the main panel, with courses listed above them. + New lesson starts a new one.

What it's good for
Atlas is purpose-built for learning and structured exploration: studying a new topic, planning a complex trip, working through a textbook, journaling research. The starter templates (Lecture Notes, Study Plan) help structure the system prompt for didactic-mode replies. Memory recall is biased toward the active Course, so picking up where you left off in a multi-week study arc feels natural. Less suited to one-off questions.
