brat (brat rapid annotation tool) is based on the [stav][stav] visualiser
which was originally made in order to visualise
[BioNLP'11 Shared Task][bionlp_2011_st] data. brat aims to provide an
intuitive and fast way to create text-bound and relational annotations.
Recently, brat has been widely adopted in the community. It has been used to
create well-over 50,000 annotations by the [Genia group][genia] and several
other international research groups for a number of annotation projects.

brat aims to overcome short-comings of previous annotation tools such as:
* De-centralisation of configurations and data, causing synchronisation issues
* Annotations and related text not being visually adjacent
* Complexity of set-up for annotators
* Etc.
brat does this by:
* Data and configurations on a central web server (as Mark Twain said:
"Put all your eggs in one basket, and then guard that basket!")
* Present text as it would appear to a reader and maintain annotations close
to the text
* Zero set-up for annotators, leave configurations and server/data maintenance
to other staff
