# Projects and research

> Store sources, run durable jobs, and produce cited outputs.

Projects are account-owned containers for source material and research outputs.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create a project">Use `POST /v1/projects` with a name and optional description or tags.</Step>
  <Step title="Add or import material">Add an item directly, or use `POST /v1/imports` to create a durable ingestion job.</Step>
  <Step title="Observe job state">Poll `GET /v1/jobs/{id}` until the job succeeds, partially succeeds, fails, or is cancelled.</Step>
  <Step title="Build an output">Use cited answers, comparisons, reports, or project exports depending on the result you need.</Step>
</Steps>

AI-generated answers receive bounded, untrusted evidence and return citations that identify the supporting records. Consumers should display the cited source and timestamp rather than presenting generated prose without provenance.

<Warning>
  Exports and research jobs are user-owned. Never expose their IDs as if they were authorization tokens; the API still verifies account ownership.
