What you’ll build

In 10 minutes, starting from scratch:
  • Your Apollo Space account created
  • Your company’s organization set up with an initial Stars balance
  • A first conversation with Scout returning a company analysis
  • A clear path to connect real channels (WhatsApp / email) whenever you’re ready
Total time: ~10 minutes. Prerequisite: you need to have received an email invite from the Apollo Space team (the platform is invite-only — request access through official channels if you haven’t yet).

​
1. Sign in to Apollo Space

Apollo Space is invite-only. You need to receive a unique link from the Apollo Space team by email. Once the link arrives, the rest of the onboarding is self-serve.
1

Open your invite link

You’ll receive a unique token link by email. It takes you to app.apollospace.ai with your identity already recognized.Expected result: signup page with your email already filled in.
2

Create your account

Set a password (or authenticate via Google). Apollo Space creates your profile + a personal workspace automatically.Expected result: redirect to the app’s first screen, with a welcome message.
3

Create your company's organization

Choose a name, slug, and description for the org. The slug becomes part of the URL.
The slug cannot be changed later without migrating old URLs. Use something short, stable, and free of special characters. E.g.: acmecorp, not acme-corp-2026.
Expected result: org created, “initial Stars balance” badge visible in the corner, dashboard ready to use.
4

Invite teammates (optional)

As the owner, you can add members later via intra-org invites. See Invite your team when you’re ready.
A single user can belong to multiple organizations in Apollo Space (if invited by others). Isolation between them is enforced at the database level — no accidental data mixing.

​
2. Understand your Stars balance

Every new account receives an initial bonus in Stars — Apollo Space’s internal currency. Each billable action (an agent conversation, a public search, a WhatsApp message sent) consumes Stars.
You don’t need to purchase anything to try it out. The initial bonus covers comfortable exploration — dozens of agent conversations. See Stars to understand how the wallet works in detail.

​
3. Chat with your first agent

1

Open the chat

In the sidebar, click Chat. This is the single surface where you talk to any agent in your org.Expected result: empty chat screen, with the persona selector at the top.
2

Choose an agent

To get started:

Scout

Public web research — search, company analysis.

Marcus

Outbound — writes and sends emails and WhatsApp messages.

Athena

Chief of Staff — the organization’s multi-tool operator.
Recommended for the quickstart: Scout. It doesn’t need any connected channels to work — just the Tavily search key (already included in the org bootstrap).
3

Make a concrete request

Vague requests produce vague answers. The more specific you are, the better.
Expected result: Scout runs 1–3 web searches and returns a structured summary with cited source links. Average time: 20–40 seconds.
4

Inspect the trace (optional)

Every conversation has a View trace button — it shows each tool call and its cost in Stars.
The trace is Apollo Space’s most underrated feature. It shows you exactly what the agent did — useful for understanding behavior, tuning your prompt, or reporting unusual behavior to support with concrete evidence.

​
4. Connect a real channel (optional)

When you want Marcus to send messages on your behalf, connect at least one channel:

WhatsApp via Twilio

BYO key: Twilio account + number approved by Meta. The Twilio invoice goes directly to you.

Email via Resend

Use Resend (free tier available) or configure SPF/DKIM to send from your own domain.
WhatsApp takes 2–7 business days to get the number approved by Meta. If you need outbound now, start with email (Resend activates in minutes) and add WhatsApp in parallel.
