# Public vs Premium

How Stratix Public and Stratix Premium relate — same catalog, different surfaces.

The architectural relationship between the two web surfaces.

## Same catalog, different surfaces

Both Stratix Public and Stratix Premium read the same global catalog: 175+ models, 52+ benchmarks, 2,000+ public evaluations, public spaces. Premium augments that catalog with **org-scoped private items**: private models (BYOK), private benchmarks, private evaluations, judges, scorers, traces, spaces.

## What changes between them

| Aspect      | Public           | Premium             |
| ----------- | ---------------- | ------------------- |
| Catalog     | global           | global + your org's |
| Authoring   | none             | full                |
| Persistence | none (anonymous) | full                |
| Compute     | none (no runs)   | ECU PAYG            |
| Data scope  | global           | org-scoped          |

## Switch toggle

When logged in, the **Switch toggle** flips Premium's catalog views between Public-only and Premium-augmented. Use Public-only mode to see exactly what an anonymous visitor sees.

## Why the split exists

* **Public** is for browse, research, citation. Optimized for low-friction discovery.
* **Premium** is for build, evaluate, govern. Optimized for team workflow.

Splitting them lets the public surface stay fast and anonymous while the workspace stays deep.
