Overview

ProDex runs in any modern browser — there’s nothing to install. Your administrator sends you a link, you sign in with your work identity, and your account is created automatically on first login.

​
Signing In

ProDex uses your organization’s identity provider — Google Workspace, Microsoft Entra ID, or custom SSO — so there are no separate ProDex credentials to manage. Sign in with your work account. If sign-in fails, there’s no password to reset: contact your IT team or ProDex administrator.

​
Your Role

Every user has one of two access levels:
  • Member: uses the capabilities enabled for their account, including Chat, Knowledge Base, and Workflows.
  • Admin: also manages the team roster, adjusts roles, and configures organization-wide settings. Joining the organization follows your organization’s sign-in policy; see how teammates join.
Admins manage the roster through the Team item in the bottom cluster of the left sidebar — Members don’t see it. For personal preferences, click your email address at the bottom of the sidebar and choose Settings. Your role does not turn on optional product features; the navigation shows the capabilities enabled for you.

​
What You See on First Login

The app’s default home is Chat, where you work with Dexter. If you opened a link to a specific page, sign-in can return you to that page instead. If you have no factory yet, choose Create new factory on the empty screen, or Import Factory if someone gave you a .prdx file. You can also start a factory anytime from the factory selector at the top of the left sidebar:
  1. Open the factory selector (it will indicate that no factory is active).
  2. Choose New Factory.
  3. Give it a name that reflects the operation you’re modeling — a plant, a line, a business unit — and confirm.
The factory becomes your active workspace, and every capability in the sidebar becomes scoped to it. From there, the fastest way to get moving is to tell Dexter in Chat what you’re trying to do — profile a dataset, model a line, plan production — and it will guide you into the right workflow.
Your First Project walks you through the most common first session: upload a data file, answer Dexter’s questions, and walk away with your first artifact.

​
Factory Visibility and Sharing

Your organization’s workspace is multi-tenant and isolated: other organizations can never see your data. Within your organization, factories are the unit of scoping — data and artifacts inside a factory are isolated from other factories, and switching factories switches your entire working context. The factory selector popover carries the factory-level actions: Each factory in the list also has a star to mark it as a favorite. Starred factories appear under Starred, right after the factory you’re in; the rest are grouped by when they last changed.
Sharing a factory with a teammate hands them their own copy — later changes you make do not automatically appear in it. See Factory Management for how shared factories behave.
