Guided company setup


In simple words
Guided company setup is part of Workspace. Profile, departments, invitations and which panels your team uses. This guide takes you through it in 7 short steps.
Where it fits in your work — Invite. Invite people by email with a role; verified accounts get access to exactly the panels you choose.
Before you start
- You need to be signed in to your company's workspace. Workspace appears in the Workspace dashboard and in the left menu when your role includes it.
- What you can see and change depends on your role. If a menu item or button is missing, ask your workspace owner to give your role access in Workspace → Users.
- Guided company setup belongs to Organisation in Workspace. Profile, departments, invitations and which panels your team uses.

Tips
- You can use more than one filter together (Company name, Legal name (optional), What does your company do?) to see exactly the records you want.
- The search box accepts: As registered. Start typing and the list narrows down.
- If you make a mistake, open the record again and correct it. Changes are recorded against your name so your team can see who did what.

FAQs
Common questions.
About Guided company setup and Workspace.
I cannot see Guided company setup in the menu.
Your role may not include it. Ask your workspace owner to open Workspace → Users and give your role access to Workspace.
Can I do this on my phone?
Yes. SelfRun AI works in the browser on any device and can be installed as an app on Android, iOS and desktop, with the same screens and the same data.
Does this cost extra?
No. Guided company setup comes with the Workspace panel, and every panel is included in every plan.
What is SelfRun AI?
SelfRun AI is a cloud platform that brings your sales, HR, finance, projects, procurement, training, documents, website and team communication into one system, with AI and workflow automation running through all of it.
Do I need to use every module?
No. Each plan includes a set of modules and you switch on only what you need during setup. You can turn modules on or off later from your workspace settings.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The Free plan is free forever for one person and includes every panel and every feature — no card needed. Paid plans add more people and bigger storage, AI, email and voice allowances.
