Getting started with Basik

This guide takes you from sign-up to a working team space in about ten minutes.

1. Create your account and company

1. Go to Get started free and enter your name, work email and a password.
2. Enter the code we email you to confirm your address.
3. Name your company. This is your team's workspace; you'll be its owner.
4. Complete your profile with your name, job title and time zone so teammates know who you are.

2. Invite your team

Open Settings → Members and choose Invite member. Enter their email, pick a role and add a personal message if you like. Invitations expire, and you can resend or revoke them from the same page. See Inviting your team.

3. Set up a few channels

Start small: a #general channel for company-wide news, one channel per team, and one per active project. Add a description and guidelines so people know what each channel is for.

4. Get the apps

Install the desktop and mobile apps to get notifications you can reply to.

5. Try the Workboard

When a conversation produces a to-do, turn the message into a task. See Workboard basics.
