Hi,

I just found out about this tool and would like to know how I can create specific tags for my project?

Best

Hi! You might want to check out the "Named Entity Recognition" overview – also take a look at the "Quickstart" section at the bottom for some usage workflow examples:

> **[Named Entity Recognition · Prodigy · An annotation tool for AI, Machine...](https://prodi.gy/features/named-entity-recognition/)**
>
> Tagging names, concepts or key phrases is a crucial task for Natural Language Understanding pipelines. The Prodigy annotation tool lets you label NER training data or improve an existing model's accuracy with ease.

If you like videos, here's a tutorial where Matt shows how to use Prodigy to train a new entity type entirely from scratch, based on a few keywords:

Finally, for some more example workflows, see the this page of the built-in annotation recipes. The NER recipes are the ones starting with `ner.`:
