Nine clicks and one decent paragraph about your brand. That's the setup. Here's every screen, in order.
Onboarding is the product. Most users over-budget the setup because they expect it to be hard. Here's every screen, with the shortcut that turns a 30-minute workflow into ten.
Before you start: one paragraph
Write one paragraph about your brand. Who you serve, what you sell, how you sound. Everything downstream inherits from this.
Screen 1-3: Brand Profile
Paste the paragraph. Select 3 voice words (direct, warm, receipts-heavy). Pick one audience type. Save.
Screen 4: Audience persona
One persona. Name them. Three sentences: what they want, what they're tired of, what they wish someone would say. Most users add three personas and dilute the voice. Start with one.
Screen 5-6: Knowledge Base
Upload three documents: your best blog post, most-liked social, and any FAQ or pitch doc. Three docs is the threshold where content quality measurably jumps.
Screen 7: Memory Facts
Type 3-5 facts that must be true in every post. Product name spelling. Your URL. One thing you never say. These are the rails.
Screen 8-9: First generation
Enter one idea. Rate the first batch thumbs-up/thumbs-down. Two minutes of feedback here is worth an hour of prompt engineering later.
Setup is not a tax on the tool. Setup is the tool.
