# Quickstart

> Get up and running with Sontairo in under 5 minutes

This guide walks you through creating your workspace, connecting a tool, and chatting with your first AI agent — then points you at the products you can switch on from there.

## 1. Create an Account

Sign up at [sontairo.com/register](https://sontairo.com/register) using your email, Google, or GitHub account.

## 2. Create a Workspace

After signing in, you'll be prompted to create a workspace. This is your organization's home — all products, agents, connectors, and projects live here.

<Info>
  You can invite team members to your workspace later from the Settings page.
</Info>

## 3. Add a Provider Key

Navigate to **Provider Keys** in the sidebar and add your AI provider key:

1. Click **Add Provider Key**
2. Select your provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, etc.)
3. Enter your API key and choose a model
4. Click **Save**

<Tip>
  Sontairo supports Bring Your Own Key (BYOK) on all plans, and in-house AI is available so you can start without a key.
</Tip>

## 4. Create Your First Agent

Go to the **Agents** tab and create an agent:

1. Click **Create Agent**
2. Give it a name (e.g., "Research Assistant")
3. Click **Generate** to auto-fill a description and system prompt, or write your own
4. Select a provider key
5. Click **Create**

## 5. Connect a Tool

Head to **Connectors** and add an integration:

1. Click **Add Connector**
2. Search for a service (e.g., "Slack" or "Google")
3. Name the connection and click **Add**
4. Complete the OAuth flow if prompted

## 6. Chat with Your Agent

Open the **Chat** page, select your agent, and start a conversation. Agents respond with streaming text, remember context, and can use your connected tools. On a Voice-enabled plan you can also [talk hands-free](/voice/overview).

## 7. Switch on the products you need

With the foundation in place, turn on the parts of your business you want Sontairo to run:

    Ask the Helm builder for the tables you need, or import from Airtable or a spreadsheet.
