# Data Studio

{% hint style="info" %}
**Status: In development.** Data Studio extends the available Section Inspector and Data Explorer workflow; its final capabilities and availability can change during the beta.
{% endhint %}

Data Studio is the developing analysis layer for working across structured Neurolab research artifacts. Its purpose is to help researchers compare, filter, visualize, and question data while preserving the exact report values and their provenance.

## The foundation available today

[Section Inspector and Data Explorer](/start-using-neurolab/section-inspector-and-data-explorer.md) already support bounded operations over a single report. Natural language can select an allowed action such as ranking, filtering, comparing existing candidates, highlighting, or inspecting evidence. The underlying report is not mutated.

## Direction of the studio

Data Studio is intended to extend that interaction toward:

* comparison across selected, version-compatible research artifacts;
* reusable filters and views;
* evidence-aware tables and visual summaries;
* explicit handling of null, omitted, and abstained values; and
* natural-language assistance that resolves to inspectable operations.

## Trust boundary

Natural language should remain an interface to defined analysis actions, not permission for arbitrary execution. A generated chart or summary should be traceable to the source fields, transformations, filters, and release identities used to produce it.

Data Studio should never silently rerank a report, fill missing values, combine incompatible score scales, or present an explanatory summary as a new model result.

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.neurolabai.io/organize-and-compare-research/data-studio.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
