Project Insights is a real-time dashboard in SciNote that helps you visualize the progress of tasks and experiments within a project. It includes interactive charts for tracking status, workload, due dates, and potential bottlenecks.
You can find the Insights section in the left-side navigation menu of your SciNote workspace
