# Importing Models

> Your model is the foundation of your project. Aire helps bring it into a structured, interactive format—so you can analyze, collaborate, and move faster with confidence.

## Model Ingestion Overview

We handle ingestion with care and precision, preserving your logic while enabling powerful features on the platform.

### What to Expect

<Columns>
  <Card title="Upload your model securely" icon="square-1" iconType="solid">
    You can upload directly via browser or send it through a secure, encrypted channel. Your data is handled with enterprise-grade
    security protocols and never shared.
  </Card>

  <Card title="We structure and verify the model" icon="square-2" iconType="solid">
    We organize your model into a standardized format that captures your [terms](/docs/terms), outputs, and calculations. We check for
    completeness, resolve ambiguous logic, and flag anything needing clarification.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Your model is live on Aire" icon="square-3" iconType="solid">
    Once complete, your structured model is available on the Aire platform—ready for exploration, QA, and [scenario](/docs/scenario-analysis) work. You
    won’t need to manage separate files or receive static outputs.
  </Card>
</Columns>

### What We Check

What we validate during ingestion:

<Columns>
  <Card title="Input/output mapping" icon="arrows-retweet" iconType="solid" horizontal>
    All key variables and outputs are captured
  </Card>

  <Card title="Label clarity" icon="tags" iconType="solid" horizontal>
    Fields are named with consistent units and annotations
  </Card>

  <Card title="Model structure" icon="sitemap" iconType="solid" horizontal>
    Dependencies between variables are preserved
  </Card>

  <Card title="Formula logic" icon="function" iconType="solid" horizontal>
    Calculations reproduce the original results and are traceable
  </Card>
</Columns>

### How We Ensure Quality

We compare model outputs in Aire against the original Excel version. Only models that reproduce values accurately within an
acceptable tolerance are approved.
Any issues or mismatches are logged, reviewed, and resolved before your model goes live.

### After Ingestion

With your model structured and live, you can:

* Explore and share model views
* Run sensitivities and compare [scenarios](/docs/scenario-analysis)
* Track risks and assumptions
* Collaborate across teams with confidence
  This unlocks the next layer of automation, insights, and control.
