Get Started with Delegate

This guide walks you through setting up Delegate and getting your first initiative running.

Step 1: Create Your Account

Sign up at app.delegate.ai using your work email. You’ll be prompted to create or join an organization.
If your company already uses Delegate, ask a teammate to invite you to your organization.

Step 2: Create Your First Initiative

An initiative is your workspace for a specific project or goal. Click Create Initiative and give it a name like “Q1 Planning” or “Customer Onboarding.” Every initiative comes with:
  • Your delegate - An AI assistant that learns how you work
  • Activity Feed - Your team workspace for updates, posts, and canvases
  • Delegate Brain - Configuration for your delegate’s behavior, memory, and skills

Step 3: Start Chatting

The center panel is your Delegate Chat. This is where you talk to your delegate and teach it how you want things done. Try saying something like:
“Help me draft an email to the team about our upcoming deadline.”
Your delegate will respond and can help with tasks across your connected tools.

Step 4: Connect Your Integrations

To unlock your delegate’s full potential, connect your tools. Click your profile in the sidebar, then Integrations to connect:
  • Gmail - Send and read emails
  • Google Calendar - Check and manage events
  • Google Drive, Docs, Sheets, Slides - Access your documents
  • Slack - Send messages to channels and teammates
  • GitHub - Manage repositories and issues
  • Notion - Read and update docs
  • Linear - Manage issues and projects
  • Figma - Access design files
  • Zoom - Manage meetings
You control exactly what your delegate can access. Start with read-only access and expand permissions as you get comfortable.

Step 5: Teach Your Delegate

The more you work with your delegate, the better it gets. When you give feedback like:
“Next time, always include the project deadline in these emails.”
Your delegate remembers and applies it going forward.
