Product direction · Planned features

A longer view of the research workspace

The next chapter connects documents, instruments, datasets and learning. These are planned directions, with no promised release dates.

Planned, not currently available

The capabilities below describe the direction of the product. They are not enabled services or commitments. The current release focuses on authoring, imports, review, access and version history. See what works today.

Planned

Learning grounded in your sources

Retrieve relevant passages across a study’s materials, build reading guides and explore questions with source references. Inspired by source-based research notebooks.

Planned

Agentic Document Environment

Assistants that propose document operations for human review, with clear sources, permissions and recorded acceptance.

Planned

Research instrument validation

Inspect wording, scales, branching and consistency inside the workspace. Separate automated checks from methodological judgement.

Planned

Research instrument gallery

Discover reusable instruments with provenance, licensing, adaptation notes and version histories.

Planned

Statistical validation and tests

Explore dataset quality, missingness, reliability and appropriate statistical tests with explicit assumptions and reproducible outputs.

Planned

Survey field implementation

Connect approved instruments to deployment and field monitoring, preserving the version associated with collected data.

Planned

Geospatial research tools

Work with geographic attributes, coverage, boundaries and spatial quality checks while respecting location privacy.

Planned

Deeper collaboration and interoperability

Expand editor fidelity, connected-tool synchronization and accessible collaboration after dedicated testing.

The principle that carries forward

New tools should help researchers examine the work. Suggestions should have sources, edits should be reviewable, and accepted changes should join the document’s history. Statistical or AI assistance will need its own evaluation before it can support research decisions.
