The Hub is your central workspace for managing all prospecting data.

***

### Managing Exported Datasets

**View Your Datasets**

All exported data appears in the Hub with:

* Dataset name (auto-generated based on search)
* Entity count
* Export date
* Credit cost
* Status (ready, processing, error)

**Re-Import Previous Searches**

```
Load my dataset from last week about SaaS CTOs
```

The AI will:

1. Search your Hub for matching datasets
2. Show available options if multiple matches
3. Load the data into your current session
4. Allow you to enrich, filter, or export again

***

### Excluding Entities

**Automatic Exclusion**

Every export automatically adds entities to your exclusion list, preventing duplicates in future searches.

**Manual Exclusion**

```
Exclude all prospects from my "Q4 2024 Outreach" dataset
```

**Using Exclusion Lists**

```
Find new VPs of Sales at fintech companies, but exclude anyone I've already exported
```

AI automatically applies your default exclusion list.

### Uploading CSV Files

**Use Cases for CSV Upload:**

1. **Enrich your existing data**: Upload company names/domains to get firmographics, tech stack, contacts
2. **Find contacts at your accounts**: Upload customer list to find decision-makers
3. **Clean and standardize data**: Upload messy data to get standardized Explorium IDs and enriched fields

**How to Upload**

business_website
business_domain
business_id
```

For prospects:

```
prospect_full_name
prospect_business_name
prospect_email
prospect_phone_number
prospect_linkedin

```

**Step 2: Upload to Hub**

3. Map your CSV columns to Explorium fields
4. Click "Lists" in the Hub
5. Drag and drop your file or click to browse
6. Review mapping and confirm upload

**Step 3: Process Your Data**

Once uploaded, tell the AI what you want:

```

```

Or:

```
Enrich my uploaded companies with technographics and funding data
```

**Step 4: Export Results**

Review the sample, approve costs, and export as usual.
