What a Rhazes space is
A space is a shelf of documents Rhazes reads from, so answers come from your own guidelines and policies rather than the open web.

The idea
A space is a shelf of documents Rhazes can read from. Guidelines, local policies, formularies, protocols, referral criteria, standard operating procedures. Anything your practice actually works to.
Point a chat at a space and Rhazes answers from those documents first, quoting the passage it used rather than paraphrasing something it half-remembers. That is the whole point of them. Plenty of clinical questions have a correct answer locally that differs from the correct answer nationally, and a general model has no way to know which one you need.
Everyone starts with one
Every account gets a private personal space, created for you the first time you open Spaces. See Your personal Rhazes space.
Why you would want more than one
Because a space is a boundary, not a filing cabinet. A chat pointed at your cardiology space sees the cardiology documents and nothing else, which is exactly what you want when a question could be answered three different ways by three different specialties.
Split them the way your work is actually split: one per specialty, one per site, one per contract. A single space holding everything gives Rhazes more to sift through and gives you less control over what it finds.
What a space is made of
Inside a space are reference documents. Each one is a named folder holding files, not a single file, so "Trust antimicrobial policy" can be one reference document containing forty PDFs. Inside it you can build folders to organise those files further.

Where spaces are used
- In a chat, by linking one to the conversation. See Using a space in a chat.
- In a workflow, through a Sources step. See Connecting a space to a workflow.
Shared, when you want them to be
A space can stay yours alone, be shared with named colleagues by invitation, or be opened to every Rhazes clinician. Sharing a space is the fastest way to get a whole department working from the same version of the same guideline.
