For team members

1

Sign up or accept an invitation

Create an account at the sign-up page, or click the invitation link your admin sent you. If you were invited, your email is pre-filled and your account is verified automatically — no separate verification email needed.
2

Navigate to your project

After signing in, you’ll land on the dashboard. Select your organization from the sidebar, then open your first project.
3

Explore the Discovery Journey

Each project has a 5-step Discovery Journey diagram on the Overview tab. This shows your progress from defining personas through conducting interviews to generating insights.
4

Record your first interview

Go to the Interviews tab and click Add Interview. Select a persona and hypothesis, then enter your interview evidence — what you heard directly from a customer.

For organization admins

1

Create an organization

After signing in, click Create Organization in the sidebar. Give it a name — the URL slug is generated automatically.
2

Create your first project

Inside the organization, click New Project. Write a clear problem statement describing the market need you’re investigating. The AI quality checker will help you refine it.
3

Add personas and hypotheses

On the project’s Personas tab, define who you’re researching (e.g., “SaaS Product Manager”). Then add hypotheses on each persona — testable assumptions you want to validate through interviews.
4

Invite your team

Go to Settings and invite team members by email. Assign roles:
  • Owner — Full control including organization deletion
  • Admin — Manage members and organization settings
  • Member — View and contribute to projects

For developers

Understand the authentication model

2

Explore the API

Check the API Endpoints documentation for available endpoints, request formats, and response schemas.
3

Set up your environment

You’ll need your project’s API URL and an apikey header for all requests. Include a Bearer token in the Authorization header for authenticated endpoints.
