Open in the viewer

Double-click your file to open it in the viewer. The file type is auto-detected and the appropriate viewer loads automatically.

3. Explore the viewer

Once your image is open, you can:
  • Pan and zoom using the mouse or trackpad
  • Adjust channels for multi-channel scientific images (OME-TIFF, Zarr)
  • Navigate Z-slices and time points with the slider controls
  • Adjust brightness, contrast, and gamma in the adjustments panel
  • Split panes to compare images side by side (up to 6 panes)

4. Run your first model

Ask a question

Try something like:
  • “Segment all cells in this image” — runs SAM3
  • “Track the mouse in this video” — runs DeepLabCut
  • “Count the blue cells” — runs Cellpose + color analysis

View results

Results appear as overlays on your image. Segmentation masks, keypoint tracks, and analysis charts are rendered directly in the viewer.

5. Share your work

Click the Share button in the toolbar to generate a shareable link. You can set permissions (viewer, commenter, or editor) and optionally set an expiration date.
