Tables

What is a Blazar table?

A table is the core unit of research in Blazar. Each table represents a single research question and contains the structured data that Blazar’s AI agents find on the web. A table consists of:

• A name — a descriptive title you give to your research (e.g., “AI SaaS Companies in Europe”)
• Rows — one for each entity that matches your query (e.g., individual companies)
• Columns — one for each data point you asked for (e.g., website, headquarters, employee count)
• Cells — each cell contains a researched value with one or more citations

​

Creating a table

You can create a new table in two ways:

1. Click “Create new table” in the empty workspace
2. Use the keyboard shortcut: Cmd + ; (Mac) or Ctrl + ; (Windows/Linux)

You can also create additional tables from the sidebar using the add button.

​

Naming your table

When you create a table, a title field appears at the top of the workspace. Click it to type your table name. A good table name describes the research question — it helps you identify the table later when you have multiple tables. Examples of good table names:

• “European AI startups founded in 2025”
• “Best laptop models under $1000”

Press Enter after naming your table to move to the query input field.

​

Table structure

Blazar automatically determines the table structure based on your query: Each cell is not just a value — it includes the source URL and the exact text passage that supports the data. You can inspect any cell’s citations by clicking on it or pressing Cmd + 0. See Citations for more details. You can also add rows (Cmd + [) and columns (Cmd + ]) to an existing table using keyboard shortcuts.

​

Managing multiple tables

You can create multiple tables and switch between them using the sidebar. Each table retains its data independently.
