Project creation and organization
Strategic Intent
Provide a structured, flexible space inside Docs for organizing and managing all outputs like documents, workflows and data tables under a single, consistent model.
Context
Before Projects, work was scattered across files, personal storage, and disconnected tools. Analysts had no central place to group related information.
Understanding the Need
We uncovered these insights through user interviews, usage pattern analysis, and recurring feedback. Analysts highlighted how fragmented workflows and disconnected documents made it hard to maintain context. By listening to their experiences and analyzing usage trends, we saw the clear need for a unified project workspace.
Pain Points
Fragmented work across multiple tools
Lack of a unified space
Inconsistent organization styles
Limited visibility for collaboration
No scalable model for different analysis sizes
Approach
Projects consolidate everything into one structured workspace with flexible privacy options—private, selected users, or org-wide.
Core Capabilities
Unified Workspace
Flexible Content Types
Scoped Sharing
Consistent Structure
Scalable Hierarchy
Outcome
Projects introduced clarity, predictability, and a scalable foundation that reduces fragmentation and supports how analysts actually work.
