# Templates

> Start from a ready-made flow of a popular product, or publish your own.

Templates are pre-built flows captured from well-known products. They are a fast way to explore BenchCanvas and to start an analysis from a complete flow instead of a blank canvas.

## Use a template

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open the templates gallery">
    Go to the templates section in the app from the sidebar.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick a flow">
    Browse ready-made flows from popular sites such as Apple, Airbnb, Lovable, and Nike.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Copy it into your workspace">
    Copy the template to create a new project with that flow on your own canvas.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Make it yours">
    Edit, annotate, run AI reports, and reorganize the flow just like any captured project.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  Templates are great for testing features like [Flow chat](/ai/flow-chat) and [AI reports](/ai/insight-reports) without waiting for a capture to finish.
</Tip>

## Publish your own template

If you have built a project worth sharing, you can publish it as a template so others can copy it into their workspace. Look for the publish option on projects you own.

Custom [page types](/canvas/screens) and [comment tags](/collaborate/comments) defined on the project are included when you publish or copy a template.
