Sign up and onboarding

This page walks you through creating your AlphaAgent account and completing the one-time onboarding wizard: signing in, setting up your profile and organization, and adding a payment method so you can issue license keys and deploy Studio.

Signing in​

The Console uses a secure hosted login (Auth0) with industry-standard authentication. You sign in or sign up from the Console home page; first-time sign-in creates your user record and starts onboarding automatically.

If you arrived from an invitation link, your sign-up is bound to the inviting organization (see Organization & Members). Keep the invite link open in the same browser session through the full sign-up round-trip — some private-browsing modes drop the invitation context.

The onboarding wizard​

After your first sign-in, the Console guides you through a short wizard. You cannot reach the main Console until the required steps are complete; if you leave partway through, you are returned to the next unfinished step on your next visit.

1. Welcome​

A brief introduction that confirms your account was created.

2. Profile and organization​

You provide your profile details and create (or join) your organization — the tenant that owns everything in your account: members, billing, and license keys. This organization is the unit of ownership for your entire AlphaAgent relationship.

3. Billing setup​

You add a payment method using a secure, embedded payment form (Stripe). The Console collects and verifies the card without ever storing card details itself; if your bank requires extra verification (3-D Secure), you complete it inline and are returned to the wizard.

Once verified, the Console attaches the card as your default payment method and starts your usage-based subscription. See Billing & Subscriptions for what happens after onboarding.

4. Complete​

A confirmation screen. From here you land on the Console home dashboard.

A persistent reminder until billing is set up​

If you skip or do not finish the billing step, the Console shows a persistent banner prompting you to complete it. You can still explore the Console, but you should finish billing setup before issuing license keys for a production deployment.
