# Brand Analysis Starter Kit

> Create and manage Brand analyses inside your workspace, from setup to live insights.

This guide walks through your workspace, the actions available to you, and how to create your first Brand analysis.

## Workspace overview

Once you log in, you land on your workspace. If you have multiple workspaces, they appear in alphabetical order. Each workspace contains its own analyses. Switch between workspaces using the dropdown next to the workspace name.

## Available actions

<Steps>
  <Step title="Check credits">
    Each workspace has a credit balance based on your plan or contract. Credit usage depends on `# regions × # personas` configured per analysis. Need more quota? Contact your Customer Success Manager.

    See [the credit system](/platform/getting-started/understanding-the-credit-system-for-share-of-model) for the full breakdown.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Filter active vs archived">
    Toggle between active and archived analyses. Archived analyses can be restored if you have available quota.

    <Note>
      The period during which an analysis was archived contains no data — data is not backfilled.

    </Frame>
  </Step>
</Steps>

## Analysis status

The progress of an analysis is tracked through three statuses:

* **Launching** — initial 15–20 minutes after creation.
* **Collecting** — data is gathered over the next 2–3 weeks. Trends may shift as more data arrives.
* **Live** — data has stabilised and is ready for insights.

## Analysis timer

The end date marks when data collection stops. The analysis is then automatically paused until manually unarchived; no data is backfilled for the paused period. The timer can be edited from **Edit Analysis** alongside the analysis name.

## Create a new analysis — best practices

<Steps>
  <Step title="Enter the brand name">
    Make sure the brand name is spelled correctly.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select the language">
    Match the language to the analysis region. For example, pick German for an analysis in Germany.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick a category">
    Choose a category relevant to the brand and region. Watch for spelling errors.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set the analysis end date">
    We recommend collecting data for at least one month, after which the analysis is archived. You can change or remove the end date later.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Choose 3 competitors">
    Three competitors relevant to the brand and region must be defined for comparison. Spelling matters.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select 6 attributes">
    Six attributes are required to launch the analysis — they drive perception scoring on specific dimensions.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick the LLM models">
    Enrich your analysis by selecting the AI models to include. OpenAI, Google AI, Meta AI and Anthropic are pre-selected by default for optimal coverage.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Select regions (optional)">
    Pick up to **8 regions** per analysis from the dropdown.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Define personas (optional)">
    Define up to **5 personas** per analysis based on interests, demographics and location. Example: *A 35-year-old woman who lives in the city.*

    <Tip>
      You can use AI-suggested options on the UI for every input above.
    </Tip>
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create the analysis">
    Once all parameters are entered and verified, click **Create Analysis** to start data collection.

    <Frame caption="Create analysis">

    </Frame>
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  Data is available after a 15-minute delay. The **View Details** button stays inactive until then. Refresh after 15–20 minutes to access the dashboards.
</Note>

## Insights available after launch

* **AI brand awareness** — Category Landscape
* **AI category & brand perception** — Category perception and Brand Perception (based on custom attributes)
* **Sources** *(beta)* — most influential sources AI models reference for your category
* **Smart Audiences** *(beta)* — most relevant customer personas per category, based on advanced LLM understanding

You can review the configuration of any analysis via the **Show Configuration** toggle in the top-right corner.

**Filters** are available for time period, individual LLMs, regions (when more than one) and personas (when more than one).

<Tip>
  Wait at least 2–3 weeks of data collection to obtain stabilised data ready for insights.
