Multi-tenant norms
Why documents are scoped to your organization rather than a shared public corpus, and what that means for licensing and privacy.
Stratta does not host a shared, central library of documents. Each organization brings and stores its own. This page explains why, and what it means for you.
The model
Every document belongs to exactly one organization (your workspace). When you deposit one, it is written with your organization's id and is visible only to members of that organization, through their own agent. There is no global corpus that everyone queries.
Why it's built this way
SIA standards, Eurocodes and accounting standards are licensed, copyrighted documents. Scoping documents per organization means each one supplies what it holds the rights to. Stratta never redistributes them.
Your deposited documents and any annotations in them stay within your workspace. Other organizations can't see them.
How isolation is enforced
Isolation is enforced on the server, not by the client:
- Every MCP request is authenticated by your API key.
- The server resolves your key to an organization and filters every query and write by that organization.
- The organization id is never a parameter the client can set. It's derived from your key.
So even though many organizations share the same backend, one organization can never read or write another's documents. See Security for the full model.
What this means in practice
- Documents come from you. You deposit them yourself, declaring with every deposit that you hold the rights (a licence, the publisher's authorization, or a public-domain text such as a law or a published decision). See Deposit your documents.
- Your team shares them. Everyone in your organization can query the documents you've deposited. See Manage your organization.
- Your organization is responsible for what it deposits. Only bring in documents you hold the rights to. Your copy's watermark and copyright accompany every excerpt.
The Stratta demo workspace ships with one invented document, DEMO 001. Your own workspace starts with it and nothing else. You choose what to add. See Supported documents.
