Projects: A Governed Space for Collaboration

As data and AI initiatives grow, assets become scattered, business context is lost, and managing who has access to what becomes a significant challenge. Projects are Arkham's answer to this complexity. A Project is the central, collaborative workspace where you organize all the resources for a specific business outcome.

For a builder, a Project is the launch pad that transforms a collection of technical assets into a cohesive, understandable, and governed business solution.

How Projects Bring Order to Your Work

At its core, a Project groups together disparate resources and links them with business context and a unified permissions model. This creates a secure, collaborative, and auditable environment for your teams.

Key Features

• A Unified Workspace: A Project provides a single home for every asset related to an initiative. The Project Canvas acts as a Notion-style document for goals, findings, and collaboration, while the Project Files tab provides a complete, filterable inventory of every dataset, pipeline, and model.
• Inherited Permissions: Governance is radically simplified by managing access at the Project level. Users assigned as Owner, Editor, or Viewer automatically inherit the appropriate permissions for every resource contained within the project. This eliminates the need to manage dozens of individual ACLs.
• Enhanced Discoverability and Context: By grouping assets by business purpose, Projects make it easy for team members to find what they need. The Project Canvas ensures that the "why" behind the work is documented directly alongside the technical assets, accelerating onboarding and collaboration.
• Full Auditability: With all resources and user activity scoped to a Project, it becomes simple to create a complete, auditable trail for compliance and review.
