Octarca User Guide

Learn how to use Octarca, from your first project to reviewing and delivering results.

Octarca is a desktop workspace for preparing data, asking AI about that data, cleaning datasets, and producing reports.

Use these docs as a practical manual. Start with installation and your first project, then move through inspecting data, cleaning it, working with AI, exporting results, and understanding files, accounts, credits, and common problems.

When to use Octarca

Octarca stands for Interactive Data Manager. It helps you prepare data more efficiently before analysis, reporting, or sharing.

Your project files stay in your project folder. Account, credits, model access, and selected AI request context may use Octarca services so the web and desktop app can share the same account system.

What it keeps local

Imported table files stay in the project folder. Cleaning updates the active table source file in place and records table versions in History; report workflows write generated files to project output folders such as reports/ when those workflows are used.

What uses your account

Account, credits, model access, and selected AI request context may use Octarca services so the web and desktop app can share the same account system.
