Narrow the scope

Schemas can include optional parameters that shape results. For example, the Vocabulary schema lets you dial in exactly how you want to learn:

  • Set the topic — tell the AI what subject area to focus on
  • Filter by type — narrow results to nouns, verbs, phrases, and more
  • Choose complexity — match the difficulty to your level of understanding
