# Unitlab Product Documentation

This documentation is organized around the objects and responsibilities a production team operates: data, datasets, projects, annotations, multimodal context, ontologies, workflows, queues, releases, collaboration, security, and workspaces. It is grounded in the current Unitlab platform source dated July 29, 2026 and current product screens.

| Area                   | Use it to                                                                         |
| ---------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| Get Started            | Orient the team, understand the object model, and prove one end-to-end cycle.     |
| Data                   | Ingest, organize, curate, group, and explore durable source data.                 |
| Datasets               | Publish reusable membership versions and control project attachments.             |
| Projects               | Configure the operating boundary for policy, work, quality, and delivery.         |
| Annotations            | Use the shared Workbench and modality-native editors.                             |
| Multimodal Annotations | Preserve multiple views or modalities as one contextual work unit.                |
| Ontologies             | Govern classes, geometry, properties, relations, validation, and schema versions. |
| Workflows              | Design human, model, review, rework, and completion routes.                       |
| Queues                 | Allocate, prioritize, monitor, and recover individual and batch work.             |
| Releases               | Freeze approved output and validate it downstream.                                |
| Collaboration          | Coordinate members, roles, assignments, feedback, and ownership.                  |
| Security               | Protect identities, credentials, sensitive data, and privileged operations.       |
| Workspaces             | Govern the top-level resource, identity, storage, and capacity boundary.          |

Unitlab configuration is connected. Changes to source membership, Data Groups, ontology, workflow, permissions, models, or export mapping can affect active work and downstream data. Validate material changes on a controlled cohort and retain an operational record.
