Claude can respond with visual content when it’s clearer than plain text. Some visuals display real-world data—like weather and recipes. Others are custom-built by Claude for your specific question, like a diagram or an interactive chart. Claude can also ask you structured questions using interactive inputs instead of asking you to type.
Visual content
When you ask Claude about certain topics, it may respond with visual content instead of (or alongside) a text response. This content is designed for information that's easier to understand at a glance.
Weather
Claude can show current weather conditions and forecasts when you ask about the weather in a specific location. You can ask directly — "What's the weather in Tokyo?" — or more casually, like "Should I bring an umbrella today?" or "What's it like in Denver this weekend?"
Claude automatically displays temperatures in Fahrenheit for US locations and Celsius for everywhere else.
Recipes
When you ask about recipes, Claude can display formatted recipe cards that are easier to follow than a block of text. Within the recipe cards, you’ll see several ways to interact: change the number of servings or the units of measurement, or click “Get cooking” to launch a step-by-step interface walking you through the recipe.
Custom visuals
When a diagram, chart, or interactive element would explain something better than text, Claude can build one from scratch—right in the conversation. Ask how something works and you might get a flowchart. Upload a CSV and Claude can render a chart you can explore.
Unlike weather and recipes, custom visuals don’t pull from a fixed data source. Claude generates the layout, logic, and interactivity specific to your question.
Sports scores
Claude can provide current scores, standings, and detailed game stats when you ask about sports.
Claude can look up data for the following leagues and sports:
Depending on what you ask, Claude can provide recent results and live scores, upcoming games, league standings and rankings, and detailed game stats including box scores and player stats.
Interactive inputs
Claude will sometimes request more information from you before it responds. Instead of asking you to type out a response, Claude may present interactive options you can click or tap — like multiple choice questions, multi-select options, or a ranking interface.
For example, if you ask Claude to help you plan a trip, it might ask you to:
