## Step 1: Start a New Project

Navigate to the **Projects** tab and click **New Project** in the top-right corner.

## Step 2: Enter Project Details

**Project Name & Context** Give your project a clear and descriptive name. You can also add optional context — such as the target audience or goal of your analysis — to help the AI generate more relevant insights.

**Main Language** Select the primary language of your text data. If your dataset contains multiple languages, you can enable **Automatic Translation**.

## Step 3: Configure Settings (Optional)

* **Anonymization** – Automatically removes personal information from your text data. [Learn more →](/get-started/project-settings/anonymization)
* **Automatic Translation** – Enable if your dataset includes multiple languages to ensure consistent analysis. [Learn more →](/get-started/project-settings/languages-and-translations)

## Step 4: Proceed to Data Import

Click **Continue** to move on to the data import step. You'll be presented with three options:

* **Upload a File** – Import `.xls`, `.xlsx`, `.csv`, `.txt`, `.spss`, or `.sav` files. [Learn more →](/get-started/file-import/file-import)
* **Use an Integration** – Connect to one of our pre-built integrations. [Learn more →](/integrations/integrations-in-caplena-overview)
