# Single Origin

Single Origin is a platform where data operators can collaborate to define, discover, and consume metrics and machine learning features in a structured, reusable way. If you sign up for the platform today, you can follow [our documentation](https://docs.singleorigin.tech/docs?ref=blog.singleorigin.tech) to:

- [Connect](https://public-sandbox.singleorigin.tech/mission-control?tab=metadata_connector&ref=blog.singleorigin.tech) to either a Snowflake instance or a BigQuery project
- Quickly [understand redundancies](https://public-sandbox.singleorigin.tech/mission-control?tab=query_audit&ref=blog.singleorigin.tech) in the queries you are running
- [Create precise yet flexible](https://public-sandbox.singleorigin.tech/workbench/create?ref=blog.singleorigin.tech) data definitions via a user-friendly interface
- [Search](https://public-sandbox.singleorigin.tech/search?ref=blog.singleorigin.tech) your definitions, dive into the details of each, and explore the relationships between them
- [Query](https://public-sandbox.singleorigin.tech/consumption?ref=blog.singleorigin.tech) your data using a variety of tools without writing any SQL. Semantic management helps ensure consistent logic and access

To help users start building their data repository in minutes, we have improved our interactive and bulk import flows. You can now complete actions in the app with significantly less manual input:

- Run an audit or import [directly from BigQuery logs](https://docs.singleorigin.tech/docs/query-audit?ref=blog.singleorigin.tech#query-history-table) - no need to compile sets of SQL queries into a CSV or table
- Spend less time filling out forms - with a single click you can [start an import from a previous query audit](https://docs.singleorigin.tech/docs/bulk-import?ref=blog.singleorigin.tech)

- Enjoy a streamlined [interactive import flow](https://docs.singleorigin.tech/docs/interactive-import?ref=blog.singleorigin.tech#create-from-sql) - we have made the UI easier to navigate while also adding more information about the tables you are querying

Over the next month, our main focuses will be:

1. Making it easier to add definitions to your data repository, as well as more accessible to set up connectors to your data
2. Exposing more API functionality so that you can integrate Single Origin into your existing flows

In the meantime, feel free to [reach out](mailto:support@singleorigin.tech) with any feedback or questions.
