# Overview

> Projects are knowledge containers within a workspace that hold documents, conversations, and facts

A **Project** is a knowledge container within a [workspace](/features/memorylake/api-reference/workspaces/overview). It is where documents are imported, conversations are captured, and facts are extracted and stored. Each project organizes a distinct body of knowledge — a product's documentation, a customer's interaction history, or a research domain.

## What a Project Contains

```
Project
├── Documents — files imported from the Library, indexed for semantic search
├── Conversations — user-assistant message exchanges
│   └── Messages — individual messages within a conversation
└── Project Facts — structured knowledge extracted from conversations
```

## Typical Workflow

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create a project">
    [Create a project](/features/memorylake/api-reference/v3-projects/create-project) within a workspace to start organizing knowledge.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Import documents">
    Upload files to the [Library](/features/memorylake/api-reference/library/overview), then [import them](/features/memorylake/api-reference/v3-documents/import-documents) into the project. MemoryLake indexes the content for semantic search.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Capture conversations">
    [Create conversations](/features/memorylake/api-reference/conversations/create-conversation) and [append messages](/features/memorylake/api-reference/conversations/create-message). MemoryLake automatically extracts structured facts from the exchanges.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Query and manage">
    [Search](/features/memorylake/api-reference/search/search-memories) across all memory sources, or manage [project facts](/features/memorylake/api-reference/facts/list-facts) directly.
  </Step>
</Steps>
