The research
workspace.
工作台
A single room where reading, thinking, mapping, and conversing happen at the same time. Each Studio is built around one site — a city, a monument cluster, a route segment. Switching studios swaps the entire working context.
A library that reads with you.
Drop in PDFs. SITU extracts chapters, abstract, and named entities, then indexes everything for retrieval — so a single query reaches across your entire shelf.
Every reference stays addressable down to the page and paragraph. Nothing is summarized away.
A conversation that cites itself.
Plain language in. Answers carry [Ref · §] tags that
jump straight to the page in your PDF — every claim is
traceable, every quote anchored.
Disagree with a paragraph? Open the source side-by-side and argue with it.
A map of every name.
People, places, dynasties, materials — automatically linked across all your references in one graph. Hover a name to light up every passage that touches it.
Most of the work in historical research is keeping the cast straight. The graph does that for you.
A canvas with no edge.
An open thinking surface. Wire prompts into image generators, 3D models, chained reasoning nodes — and keep the whole chain visible.
When a hypothesis grows beyond a chat thread, the canvas is where it goes to stretch out.
Pick a city. Open its Studio.
A Studio is always anchored to a place. Start at the Atlas — 98 cities along the historical Silk Roads — pick one, and its Studio opens around it.
