# Quickstart

> From zero to the first answered question in under 10 minutes

## 1. Create an account

Go to [app.relayn.io](https://app.relayn.io) and sign up with your email or directly with Discord. If you sign up with email, confirm it via the verification link we send you.

## 2. Connect your Discord server

After signing in, the setup wizard walks you through connecting a server:

1. Invite the Relayn bot to your Discord server. You need the **Manage Server** permission on that server.
2. Pick the server from the list — it becomes your **workspace** in the dashboard.

<Note>
  One workspace = one Discord server. You can connect multiple servers under the same account, each with its own knowledge base, team, and plan.
</Note>

## 3. Add your first knowledge

Open **Knowledge** in the dashboard and add something the bot should know:

* **Upload a file** — `.md` or `.txt` documents.
* **Index a web page** — a single URL.
* **Crawl a documentation site** — your whole docs site (GitBook and similar), indexed page by page.

Processing takes from a few seconds to a few minutes depending on size. Once the source shows **Ready**, the bot can answer from it. See [Knowledge base](/knowledge/overview) for details.

## 4. Choose where the bot answers

Open **Bot settings** and select the channels the bot should watch. The bot only answers in channels you've selected — everything else is ignored.

While you're there, set up **trusted roles**: members with these roles teach the bot when it can't answer on its own. See [Auto-learning](/knowledge/auto-learning).

## 5. Ask a question

Go to one of the selected channels in Discord and ask a question your knowledge covers. The bot detects it automatically — no need to mention or ping it — and replies with an answer plus links to the sources it used.

Every answer the bot delivers appears in the **Replies** feed in your dashboard.

<Tip>
  New workspaces start on the **Free plan** with 100 credits per month. Each server is also offered a one-time 14-day **Pro trial** — see [Promo codes & trial](/billing/promo-codes).
