### Summary
Brat is an intuitive web-based tool for text annotation supported by Natural Language Processing (NLP) technology. BRAT has been developed for rich structured annota- tion for a variety of NLP tasks and aims to support manual curation efforts and increase annotator productivity using NLP techniques. brat is designed in particular for structured annotation, where the notes are not free form text but have a fixed form that can be automatically processed and interpreted by a computer.
### Languages
English.
## Annotation Information
Annotations created in brat are stored on disk in a standoff format: annotations are stored separately from the annotated document text, which is never modified by the tool. For each text document in the system, there is a corresponding annotation file. The two are associatied by the file naming convention that their base name (file name without suffix) is the same: for example, the file DOC-1000.ann contains annotations for the file DOC-1000.txt. More information can be found [here](https://brat.nlplab.org/standoff.html).
