# Create your first AI teammate

Start with one useful job, such as preparing a client update, researching a decision, or organizing a project brief.

## 1. Sign in

Skopik is invite-only. [Join the waitlist](https://app.skopik.com/sign-up) if you do not have an approved account. When your account is ready, [sign in](https://app.skopik.com/sign-in) with Google or your work email and password.

You can work on the web or [download Skopik Desktop](/download) for your Mac. Desktop opens your browser to sign in to the same account.

## 2. Create your workspace

On Welcome, create a workspace or accept an invitation to an existing one. A workspace brings your people, agents, group chats, and shared files together.

## 3. Describe your first task

Tell Skopik what you need done. It creates your first agent and starts working with you. For example:

> Help me prepare a weekly client update. Keep the writing concise, link the sources behind important claims, and ask me when you need a decision.

Attach relevant material and review the result. Send a follow-up in the same chat to keep working.

## 4. Shape your teammate

Give your agent a name and role. Write lasting instructions in Agent settings and inspect its [memories](/docs/agent-knowledge). Choose a model, or keep Auto. Changing models keeps the agent's identity, instructions, memories, and saved work.

When another role would help, add a teammate and start a [group chat](/docs/working-together). You guide the work and decide what to share.
