Collections

A collection gathers what your organization knows and says about one topic, such as safety or a law you work under, apart from what you sell, so a piece can be about that topic with or without a product.

01What it is

A collection gathers what your organization knows and says about one topic: safety, privacy, a law you work under, sustainability. It is not something you sell. Products and services sit in the groups of Our offer; collections sit beside them, as a kind of their own. A fact can be in a group and in a collection at once, and is never copied.

02Why it matters

Not every piece is about a product. A care organization is asked how it keeps data safe; a buyer wants to know where you stand on the AI Act. A collection lets a brief be about that topic, with or without a product, and keeps the facts for it in one place that someone looks after.

03How it works

There are three kinds of grouping, each with its own place:

- the groups of your offer (such as Products and Services), shaped under Offerings in Foundation and worked on under Our offer;

- collections, the topics you have something to say about, looked after under Collections in Foundation and found under Collections in the sidebar;

- sectors, the worlds your customers work in.

Membership is separate from origin. A fact keeps the source, project, customer or campaign it came from, and separately belongs to any number of groups and collections. Connecting a source to a collection makes its facts reachable from that topic; disconnecting it removes the link and leaves the source untouched. A collection can sit under a broader collection, up to four levels deep; it never sits under a group of the offer, and a group never sits under a collection.

In Create, Grounded on shows the groups of your offer and your collections as two lists. Tick only a collection and the piece is about that topic. Tick a group or a product and a collection and it is about that offering on that topic.

A workspace can call its collections something else, such as Themes or Focus areas. Everything that says Collections then uses that word: the sidebar, Foundation and the brief.

Until 28 October 2026 the groups of the offer were called collections too. They are now called groups, or the name you gave that level.

04How to use it
  1. In Foundation, open Collections and choose New collection. Give it a name and a sentence on what it covers.
  2. Fill it: Add a source reads something new into it, such as the safety page of your website; Connect a source links one Gyrium has already read.
  3. Under Images, choose Add images to file pictures that belong to the topic. They are offered for everything grounded on this collection, and for nothing else.
  4. Make something with it: Create with this on the collection, or tick it under Grounded on in Create.
  5. To give collections your own name: in Foundation, under Collections, choose Give them a name, pick a word or type your own, and choose Save the name. Back to Collections returns to the standard name.
05Q&A
What is the difference between a group and a collection?

A group holds what you sell, such as Products or Services. A collection is a topic you have something to say about, such as safety. A fact can be in both.

Does adding something to a collection move it?

No. Nothing moves. A collection is a way of seeing; the fact stays where it came from.

Can I call them something else?

Yes. Give them your own name in Foundation, under Collections.

06Limits & not-yet

A group of the offer cannot yet be moved to Collections from the screen (planned: Move to Collections). Gyrium does not yet propose a collection when it reads a website page about a topic (planned). The sidebar's Collections and Foundation's Collections show the same page for now.
