# Quickstart

> From sign-up to your first insight in about 10 minutes.

You'll be up and running in four steps. The only thing you need is login access to one business tool - your store, ads, CRM or accounting.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Create your workspace" icon="user-plus">
    Sign up and name your workspace (usually your business name). This is the private home for your data and your team.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect your first source" icon="plug">
    Go to **Settings → Connectors** and connect the tool that best reflects your business - most owners start with their **store** (Shopify, WooCommerce) or **accounting** (Xero, QuickBooks).

  </Step>

  <Step title="Let Vivacity learn" icon="hourglass-half">
    Vivacity runs a first read of your data (read-only) and builds your baseline. This usually takes a few minutes; larger histories can take longer. You'll get a notification when your first briefing is ready.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Read your first briefing - and ask a question" icon="comments">
    Open your **Daily Briefing** to see what's happening, then ask Vivacity anything in plain English, like *"What changed in revenue this week?"* or *"Which leads should I follow up first?"*
  </Step>
</Steps>
