Create your workspace
Set up your workspace, pick your AI teammate, and start your first project in a Room.
Start by giving your AI teammate a name and making a Room for the first project you want to work on.
Before you start
Use your work email and have a workspace name in mind. If someone already invited you, use their invitation and its email address to join their workspace.
Steps
- Sign up with your work email. The person who creates the workspace is its owner.
- On Pick your AI assistant, choose a name and face, then choose Say hi.
- Follow the prompts to name your workspace and its first Room. Choose Make our room.
- Follow the guided introduction or choose Skip intro to get to the Room composer. Try a real project question, such as “What goes on our launch checklist?”
If you see a company profile form during setup, follow the prompts on that screen. It may ask for your company website and industry, and offer a working style or a messaging channel. You can open Home or your first Room when setup finishes.
What your trial gives you
With Free-by-default signup, new workspaces start on Free. The workspace owner can choose to start a 14-day Team trial without a card if eligible. The new trial includes a one-time grant of 10,000 credits shared across the workspace. Check Settings → Plans & Billing for your current balance and trial end date. Existing trials keep the grant they started with.
If your trial ends without a paid subscription, your workspace moves to Free and keeps its existing work. See Start your free trial and Choose a plan.
A good first hour
- In your Room, ask your AI teammate for a first draft that your team can review.
- If the task needs a work app, open Connections and connect that app.
- Open Settings → Activity to see the run's receipt. Once you have a repeatable task, try Your first Routine.
A worked example
An operations lead creates a workspace for Northstar Ops and makes a Room called Launch. They ask their AI teammate to turn the launch brief into a checklist. Then they invite a teammate into the Room to review it.
What to check
- You expected to join someone else's workspace. Reopen the invitation and use the address it was sent to.
- A setup step failed. Use Retry where it appears, or reload and follow the current step.
- Your AI teammate cannot reach an app. Open Connections, connect the app, and ask again.
- You do not see an active trial. Check the workspace's Billing page for the trial or Free plan and its next available action.
