Meet your first project

A project is its own database where you can dive deep into a specific topic or area of interest and transform your data into insights. They are a space for you to thoroughly analyze data-rich sources like customer interviews, usability tests, sales calls, or past research papers to draw very detailed insights.

Projects can also house existing research, so it's always on hand and able to be referenced by your team.

• To create a project, navigate to the Projects page.

• From the Create new button, you can open a blank project or start from one of our community templates. We recommend starting from our Customer interviews template as it contains a simple starting set of tags that you can work with.

When creating a new project, Dovetail's magic automation is turned on by default. This means that Dovetail's magic features will do the work in transcribing any video or audio files upon import, automatically generate summaries of your customer data, and surface notable quotes for you to accept or reject.

You can decide how much AI you want working with your data in your project's settings.
