# Projects (https://terac.com/docs/researchers/team/projects)

Organize your research into separate project workspaces within your organization.

Projects group related opportunities, research guides, and recordings together. They provide a clean separation between different research initiatives.

## Why Use Projects [#why-use-projects]

* **Organization** - keep opportunities for different products, teams, or clients separate
* **Context** - each project can have its own research context that guides the AI moderator
* **Focus** - team members can work within a project without seeing unrelated opportunities

## Creating Projects [#creating-projects]

See [Create a Project](https://terac.com/docs/researchers/getting-started/create-project) for a step-by-step guide.

## Project Structure [#project-structure]

Each project contains:

| Section       | Description                                     |
| ------------- | ----------------------------------------------- |
| Opportunities | Opportunities belonging to this project         |
| Guides        | Research guides and discussion scripts          |
| Guides        | Discussion guides, interviews, and insights     |
| Settings      | Project name, description, and research context |

## Project Settings [#project-settings]

From the project settings page you can:

* Update the project name and description
* Set project-level research context (used by the AI moderator alongside org context)
* Archive the project when research is complete

## Archiving Projects [#archiving-projects]

When a project is finished, you can archive it. Archived projects:

* Are hidden from the main navigation
* Retain all data (opportunities, recordings, insights)
* Can be unarchived later if needed
