Setting up your AI team has never been simpler. In just a few steps, you'll have specialists ready to help with content, marketing, strategy, and operations—all learning your voice and working together on your behalf.

What You're Building

Your AI team consists of specialized agents that collaborate like a well-run creative team. CLARA handles content, MAYA manages marketing, SAGE provides strategy, OTTO runs operations, and ALEX handles community engagement. Each learns your preferences and works with the others.

Quick Setup: 3 Steps to Launch

1

Add Your Website

Start by adding your primary website URL. This gives your team foundational context—who you are, what you do, and how you present yourself to the world.

  • Your about page and bio
  • Services or offerings
  • Portfolio or past work
  • Contact information

Pro tip: Make sure your website is up-to-date before adding it. Your team will reference this content in their work.

2

Have Your First Conversation

The fastest way to teach your team is through conversation. Start chatting with your specialists about your work, your preferences, and your goals.

Try saying:

  • • "I'm a podcaster who focuses on entrepreneurship"
  • • "My audience is creative professionals aged 25-45"
  • • "I prefer a conversational, direct writing style"
3

Assign Your First Task

The best way to learn is by doing. Give your team a real task and see how they perform. Start simple, then increase complexity as they learn your preferences.

Good first tasks:

  • • Ask CLARA to draft show notes for a recent episode
  • • Have MAYA write social posts promoting your latest content
  • • Request SAGE to research a topic for an upcoming project

Meet Your Specialists

Each specialist on your AI team has a distinct focus. They collaborate together, but each brings unique expertise to your work.

CLARA - Content

Your content strategist and writer. Handles blog posts, show notes, newsletters, scripts, and anything that needs your voice.

MAYA - Marketing

Your marketing lead. Creates campaigns, social content, ad copy, and promotional materials that drive engagement.

SAGE - Strategy

Your strategic advisor. Conducts research, analyzes trends, and provides insights to inform your decisions.

ALEX - Community

Your community manager. Handles audience engagement, responds to inquiries, and builds relationships.

Start With One

You don't need to use all specialists immediately. Most creators start with CLARA for content or MAYA for marketing, then expand to others as they get comfortable.

Building Knowledge Over Time

Your AI team gets smarter with every interaction. Here's how to accelerate their learning:

  • Share examples: Upload content you're proud of. Tell your team what makes it work.
  • Give feedback: When output isn't quite right, explain what to change and why.
  • Add context: Share FAQs, brand guidelines, and process documents through the knowledge base.
  • Correct explicitly: "Never use 'utilize' when 'use' works" is the kind of specific guidance that sticks.
  • Celebrate wins: When your team nails it, tell them. Reinforcement helps them repeat success.

What Your Team Can Do

Once your team learns your preferences, they become genuine collaborators. Here's what trained specialists deliver:

Scale Your Output

Produce more content, campaigns, and projects without sacrificing quality or your unique voice.

Stay Consistent

Every output—across platforms, projects, and time—reflects your style and standards.

Work Proactively

Trained specialists anticipate needs, suggest improvements, and catch issues before they become problems.

Collaborate Seamlessly

Your specialists coordinate with each other, building on each other's work like a real team.

Your First Week

Here's a simple plan to get the most from your first week:

  • Day 1: Add your website and have an introductory conversation
  • Day 2: Assign a simple content task and review the output
  • Day 3: Provide specific feedback on what to improve
  • Day 4: Add 5-10 FAQs to your knowledge base
  • Day 5: Try a second specialist for a different type of task

By the end of week one, you'll have a team that understands your basics and is ready to grow with you.
