RISE in ChatGPT and Claude
Last updated: 12 October 2026
RISE turns an answer from your assistant into a short reading you watch and listen to. Ask ChatGPT or Claude to explain something and present it in RISE: the answer is spoken aloud by your device's voice, its words appear as they are spoken, and a moving image plays behind them, chosen to suit the subject. You press Play, and you can pause, resume, and play it again.
The controls under the reading go back or forward a passage, say a passage again, and change the pace. Settings sets how vivid the imagery is, the theme, whether the imagery stays still, the sound, the voice and the text size. Where your device offers both, sound and voice share one row, Sound & voice: a switch for the sound bed and a choice of your device's voices.
What RISE does, and what it does not
- The words are your assistant's. Your assistant writes the reading: its passages, a title, and optionally a theme (its colours) and a look (its imagery, typeface and colours together).
- The voice is your device's. RISE uses the speech voice built into your browser or operating system. If your device has no voice installed, the reading still plays, paced for reading, with every word shown.
- The sound bed is made in your browser. A quiet bed of sound may play under the voice. RISE synthesizes it in your browser as it plays; no AI model makes it. Settings > Sound turns it off.
- The imagery is drawn, not generated. RISE draws it live with its own procedural engines: line drawings that grow, a strange-attractor filament, soft fields of light, fractal flames, harmonic line figures, and spectral plates. RISE does not use AI models to make images, video or audio.
- Diagrams and figures are drawn by your assistant, as code. Your assistant may draw a diagram or figure for the reading, as SVG or as a small drawing program (scene code). RISE checks it first and draws it in a worker of its own, with no network and no access to your data.
- RISE keeps nothing. It receives only the reading your assistant writes for it, plays it, and stores none of it. See the Privacy Policy.
Add RISE
- Claude: open Customize > Connectors and add RISE from the directory, or add a custom connector with the address
https://rise.syberlabs.io/api/mcp. No account or key is needed. - ChatGPT: add RISE from the ChatGPT apps directory once it is listed.
Try it
These prompts work well:
- "Explain how black holes bend light, and present it in RISE."
- "Give me a two-minute RISE reading on why the sky is blue."
- "Walk me through how vaccines train the immune system, as a RISE reading."
- "Present a short reflection on Marcus Aurelius and the inner citadel in RISE, in the Garden look."
- "Explain how a bill becomes law in the US as a RISE reading in the Signal look."
RISE is not the right tool for these, and your assistant should answer them itself:
- "Book me a table for two tomorrow night." (RISE presents readings; it takes no actions.)
- "Generate a picture of a cat." (RISE draws its own imagery; it makes no pictures to order.)
- "Write a 10,000-word report and read it in RISE." (A reading holds at most 16 passages and 20,000 characters.)
The looks
A look sets a reading's imagery, typeface and colours together. Your assistant chooses one to suit the answer, or you can ask for one by name: Plain (the words alone), Gallery (soft light dissolving behind the words), Nocturne (soft light and fine traced lines, slowly), Garden (a line drawing growing behind the words), Flame (a living flame), Signal (a strange attractor circling the words), Iris (spectral plates), Revel (fractal flames at a lively pace), Vigil (one quiet image, held) and Inlay (fractal flames behind the words, in a heavy face).
If something is not right
- No sound. Your device has no speech voice installed, or its sound is off. The reading plays paced, with every word shown; install a voice in your operating system's settings to hear it.
- The imagery is still. Your device asks for reduced motion, or RISE's photosensitivity setting is on. The imagery holds one frame so the reading stays comfortable.
- The reading was refused. It was longer than RISE takes (16 passages, 20,000 characters). Ask your assistant for a shorter version.
