What a table is

A table is the core unit of work in Hizura. Each table holds one segment — one ICP, one account list, one research question — and the structured data behind it. A table consists of:
  • A name — a descriptive title for the segment
  • Rows — one per entity found (e.g. individual companies)
  • Columns — one per field you asked for
  • Cells — each researched value, with the citations behind it

Creating a table

You can create a table in three ways:
  1. Click Create new table in the empty workspace
  2. Press Cmd + ; (Mac) or Ctrl + ; (Windows/Linux)
  3. Click the add button in the sidebar
The first column is always the entity name — Hizura fills it in automatically, and you never request it in a brief.

Cell types

Not every cell holds the same kind of value. Hizura picks the shape from what the column is for: Cells are editable. Click into one to edit it directly; the editor handles multi-line values.

Views

The same table can be viewed three ways, using the toggle in the table header:

Table

The default grid of rows and columns.

Pipeline

A kanban board where each row is a card sitting in one of your steps.

Conversation

A read-only record of how the table came to be.

Display preferences are per-viewer

Column widths, column order, view mode, URL style, and whether the run summary banner shows are all stored per user, per table. Two people can look at the same shared table with completely different layouts, and neither disturbs the other. You can reorder rows by dragging them, and resize or reorder columns directly in the header.

Managing multiple tables

Create as many tables as you like and switch between them from the sidebar. Each keeps its own data, pipeline, and conversation.
Hizura runs one research at a time per account, so you can’t start a second run while one is going. You can still move around freely — switch tables, read other results, work a board — and the run carries on regardless. Reloading or closing the tab doesn’t stop it either; Hizura reconnects you to it when you come back.
