# InfraAudit platform guide: web UI overview

> A guided tour of the InfraAudit web platform — dashboards, cloud account management, scans, compliance, cost analysis, and automation.

The InfraAudit web platform gives you a browser-based interface for everything the product does: browsing your cloud inventory, running scans, reviewing findings, managing alerts, and approving remediations. This section walks through each part of the UI in detail.

If you prefer working from the terminal, the [CLI reference](/cli/commands/overview) and [API reference](/api/overview) cover the same functionality.

## Platform sections

## Where to start

If you've just connected your first cloud account, a good first path through the platform is:

1. [Dashboard](/platform/dashboard) — get a feel for the overall health summary
2. [Resources and inventory](/platform/resources-and-inventory) — confirm InfraAudit discovered what you expected
3. [Drift detection](/platform/drift-detection) — run your first scan
4. [Compliance](/platform/compliance) — enable a framework and see your score
5. [Alerts](/platform/alerts) — set up Slack or email notifications so you hear about new findings
