# Has anyone else struggled with navigation and staying oriented in large research projects?

When I work on a complex theme across multiple companies, I sometimes feel like I lose my sense of direction inside AlphaSense. I follow one thread into a filing, then a transcript, then another document type, and at some point I cannot easily retrace how I got there or where this fits in my broader project. The mix of different views and features is powerful, yet I still find the layout a bit confusing, especially when I return to a topic after a few days and try to pick up where I left off. It leaves me recreating work or trying to rebuild the same path through the content, which costs time and makes it harder to maintain a clear storyline. Are others running into this same feeling of getting “lost in the tool,” and if so, how are you staying organized and keeping a clean mental map of your research as you move around the platform?
