The starting point
A useful brief has boundaries.
EXAMPLE REQUEST
I am choosing between a one-page portfolio and a multi-page portfolio for a freelance photographer. Compare the maintenance, navigation, and search tradeoffs. Search current primary sources, link the evidence, separate facts from your recommendations, and give me three questions to answer before choosing.
Replace the example details with your own task and constraints.

Illustrative research outline
01
Decision
One page or several pages? Evaluate against the photographer's work, services, and ability to maintain the site.
02
Evidence to collect
Primary documentation on crawlable links and page titles; examples of the actual content that needs its own page.
More example details +
03
Unknown
How many distinct services and projects need to be found? Ask before recommending a structure.
04
Next step
Make a content inventory, then compare both structures against the same requirements.
Your review
Check the answer before relying on it
Does each link support the claim?
A citation can be relevant to the topic without proving the sentence. Read the original page and confirm its scope and date.
What remains uncertain?
Ask which facts are missing, which conclusions are inferred, and what evidence would change the recommendation.
Is the question bounded?
A useful brief such as 'compare these two options for this audience' usually produces a more reviewable answer than 'research my business'.
Use these checks before relying on or sharing the result.
02 / Website builder
From a clear brief to a website draft.
Describe the idea, inspect the preview, and refine the work before publishing.

o1Website builderWORKFLOW WALKTHROUGHExample
The starting point
A useful brief has boundaries.
EXAMPLE REQUEST
Build a two-page website for a fictional ceramics studio: a homepage and a workshop page. Use a quiet black-and-cream style, readable type, and strong mobile spacing. Show workshop dates as sample content. Add an inquiry form with validation; do not claim inquiries are delivered until a real destination is connected. Include an accessible menu and clear empty, loading, success, and error states.

Illustrative website brief
01
Pages
Homepage: studio introduction, selected work, and workshop link. Workshop page: schedule, details, and inquiry form.
02
Interaction
Validate the inquiry fields, keep entered text on failure, and explain where submissions go.
More example details +
03
Preview review
Check the menu and form on a narrow screen. Confirm focus order, labels, and readable contrast.
04
Before publishing
Replace sample dates, connect the real submission destination, and test the complete form flow.
Your review
A working preview needs a working checklist
Replace sample content
Remove placeholder contact details, invented quotes, sample dates, and claims you cannot support. Use your own images and copy where you have permission.
Test the complete interaction
Submit each form, follow the response to its destination, and test an error. A visual success state by itself does not prove data was saved or delivered.
Inspect mobile and accessibility
Use keyboard navigation, check focus indicators and field labels, and verify that headings and buttons remain readable on a phone.
Use these checks before relying on or sharing the result.
03 / Video editing
Give your footage a focused edit brief.
Upload your footage, describe the cut, and follow the edit through to review.

EXAMPLE REQUEST
Turn this uploaded interview into a 30-second vertical highlight in 9:16. Focus on the speaker explaining why they started the project, keep the statement in context, and avoid cutting mid-sentence. Use a simple opening title. Show me the edit request for review before rendering. I will check the finished cut before sharing it.

03
Review
Confirm the speaker's meaning, opening title, pacing, crop, and audio after the completed render.
04
Another version
Where remix is available, review the changed aspect ratio or hook text against the earlier version.
Your review
Compare the cut with your original
Preserve the meaning
Listen to the lines around each cut. A shorter statement can change the meaning if the setup or qualification disappears.
Check the crop and audio
Inspect the actual portrait or landscape output. Make sure the important action remains visible and speech is intelligible throughout.
Know which version you are viewing
Check the job and version details before downloading. A remix may change the aspect or opening hook; compare its result with the earlier cut.
Use these checks before relying on or sharing the result.
04 / Browser assistant
Work in a tab. Review the next move.

01
Context
The tab you selected, with its site and page title visible in the task.
02
Proposed action
Click the visible Contact link, then review the newly loaded page before another step.
More example details +
03
Draft
Fill a reviewed inquiry field with the text you supplied. Keep submission for your manual review.
04
Receipt
Confirm whether the action applied. A proposal, connection error, or stale task must not be treated as completed work.
Your review
Permission and continuity belong in the task
The selected tab is the scope
Always verify the current title and site. Moving to another tab or a changed page requires fresh context before the next action.
Sensitive steps need your judgment
Keep purchases, credentials, payments, messages, and publishing under direct review. The assistant may decline risky or ambiguous controls.
Check the actual receipt
The page may load slowly, reject an input, or move a control. Confirm the applied result before treating the task as done.
Use these checks before relying on or sharing the result.
EYE WORLD / o1
Message o1 like a teammate.
Give o1 a goal in your own words. Keep your research, drafts, and next steps in one workspace, with a little personality along the way.
MCP connects o1 to tools from compatible services. Add a public HTTPS MCP server and choose the tools to enable. Research with sources, manage tasks, create images, and prepare drafts in the same workspace.
Turn your instructions into a custom agent with the tools you choose. Set a schedule, or save a reviewed browser workflow for your next task. These are reusable instructions and workflows, with action review each time.
Connections depend on provider setup and your permissions. You review changes before they run.
04 / KNOW WHAT COMES NEXT
A useful tool. A clear expectation.
The demo, the signed-in workspace, and connected actions have different capabilities.
01
Start in the demo
Preview the chat and planning workspace, then explore the example walkthroughs. Live AI replies require a verified account. The public preview does not run web research, edit files, render videos, or control Chrome.
You can explore the example walkthroughs and demo preview before creating an account. Live AI replies require a verified account. Current web research also depends on the enabled tools in your signed-in workspace.
Can the demo build and publish my website?+
The public demo previews the chat and planning workspace. To generate files, inspect a website preview, and publish, sign in with a verified account and open Build.
What should I include in a website prompt?+
Include the audience, purpose, pages, visual references, required interactions, available assets, and how you will check success. Explain which content is sample and which services need a real connection.
Which video files can I upload?+
The workspace accepts MP4, MOV, and WebM video files between 1 KB and 50 MB. Availability also depends on the editing worker and your account's upload limits.
Can ordinary o1 chat control Chrome?+
Browser control uses its separate Chrome action flow. A chat answer, web search, or pasted URL does not mean a tab was opened or changed.
A BETTER FIRST REQUEST
Give o1 something it can work with.
A useful brief names the outcome, includes the context, and explains how you want to review the work.
01
Name the goal
“Compare two portfolio structures” is easier to review than “make my business better”. Say who the result is for.
02
Add the constraints
Include the information, source file, budget, deadline, format, or selected tab that changes the answer.
03
Define the review
Ask for links, a preview, an edit request, or an action proposal. Say what needs your approval before proceeding.
GUIDES / PROMPTS / WORKED EXAMPLES
Start with a clearer question or brief.
Read a practical guide, adapt a template, and check the illustrative output before bringing your own task to o1.
Research with evidence
Compare public competitor information, keep source claims separate from conclusions, and review what remains unknown.
Connections depend on provider setup and your permissions. You review changes before they run.
