# Spaces

{% hint style="info" %}
**Available in Stratix Premium.** This surface is part of the logged-in workspace at [stratix.layerlens.ai](https://stratix.layerlens.ai). Stratix Public users can browse the catalog but cannot use this feature.
{% endhint %}

A **space** is a saved evaluation configuration: a set of models, a dataset, and a scoring config bundled into a reusable workspace. When you re-run a space, the configuration stays constant — only your iteration changes (a new prompt, a new model version, a new judge).

URL: [`stratix.layerlens.ai/dashboard/spaces`](https://stratix.layerlens.ai/dashboard/spaces)

## What you can do

* **Browse public spaces** — curated by LayerLens and partners
* **Browse private spaces** — scoped to your org
* **Create a new space**
* **Re-run an existing space** with one click
* **Compare runs** within a space — see how scores change over time

## When to use a space (vs a one-off evaluation)

* Use a space when you'll evaluate the **same configuration** multiple times — e.g., regression testing as you iterate.
* Use a one-off evaluation when you're exploring and don't need to keep the configuration around.

## Creating a private space

1. Click **New space**
2. Pick models (one or more)
3. Pick dataset / benchmark
4. Pick scoring (scorers + judges)
5. Save with a name and description

The space appears in your org's Spaces list. Anyone in your org can re-run it.

## Re-running a space

A space's runs are tracked over time. The space page shows:

* Run history with scores
* Score-over-time chart per dimension
* Latest verdict
* "Re-run" button

## Public spaces

Browse [Public evaluation spaces](/5.-select-pick-the-model/public-evaluation-spaces.md) for inspiration. You can clone a public space into a private one in your org, then customize.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.layerlens.ai/8.-evaluate-score-the-outputs/spaces.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
