A project is a focused workspace built around a topic, asset, or indication. You create one when your work starts to outgrow individual conversations — when you have multiple related questions, when you're collecting sources, when you want a teammate to pick up where you left off.
Two things make Projects more than just a folder:
Sources you upload become first-class. Drop in research papers, internal memos, CSRs, study reports, competitor filings, or any of your team's own materials. Cheiron searches and cites across them the same way it searches across PubMed, FDA, and ClinicalTrials.gov. Every question in the project draws from the project's sources alongside the public literature.
Sharing turns the project into a team workspace. Invite teammates and they see the same sources, conversations, and agent runs you do. Everyone works from the same picture instead of duplicating the research.
Create a project
Click Create new project in the sidebar
Name the project after the topic, asset, or indication it covers
Add sources to a project
Sources you add to a project are automatically applied to every question in that project. Once you've uploaded the right materials, you don't have to re-attach them per question — the project carries the context.
In the project, go to the Sources tab
Click Upload file
Upload from your computer or drag and drop into the project
Supported file types: PDF, DOC, DOCX, PPT, PPTX. Limits may apply based on your plan.
Share a project with teammates
Sharing turns a project into a shared workspace where teammates see the same sources, conversations, and agent runs.
To invite teammates
Click Share at the top right of the project
Enter the email address of the person you want to invite
Pick a permission level:
Viewer: can read conversations, view sources, and ask new questions
Contributor: can ask new questions, upload sources, and edit content
Click Send invite
Important: the project link alone doesn't grant access. You have to invite teammates first by email. The link is just a convenient way to jump back into the project once they have access.
When to use a Project
Use a Project when:
You're working on a topic that spans multiple conversations
You're bringing internal documents into Cheiron's analysis (CSRs, study reports, internal memos, key research papers)
You're working with teammates and want shared visibility
You're scoped to a clear topic, asset, or indication
Use individual conversations for one-off questions that don't need ongoing context.
