Search Providers

In Settings, under Web search, you can choose:

• Auto (picks based on the network environment)
• Bing / Baidu / Bocha / Doubao / Zhipu / DeepSeek / Serper

Providers that require an API key are configured in settings; when one isn’t configured, it falls back automatically to an available mode.

Image Viewing

Drag images into the conversation and LanMate calls a vision model to:

• Describe image content
• Extract text (screenshot OCR)
• Analyze chart data
• Compare multiple images

When the current model doesn’t support image input, it switches automatically to the configured image-recognition fallback model.

OCR

Extract text from scans, screenshots, and photos:

Chart Generation

Make a bar chart and a pie chart from this data

LanMate calls the chart tools to generate them, supporting line/bar/pie/scatter/heatmap and more; the result previews in the right panel.

Image Generation & Processing

• Generate images: illustrations, posters, and icons from text descriptions
• Process images: crop, resize, rotate, format conversion, compression (watermarking needs a script or IPython)
