# Create your Tide account

> Prepare your company, technicians, customers, and service addresses. Review together before saving.

Chat setup is in preview. Availability depends on your assistant and the Tide connection. You can also create your account on this page when signup is available.

## Create an account on the website

[Create your Tide account](https://www.chiseltide.com/start#create-account). Start with your company name and timezone; technicians and customers are optional. Review the complete draft, accept terms/privacy, and verify your email to save the account. A customer can have multiple service locations. No card, staff invitations, customer messages, billing, or routes are activated by this signup. Sign in separately to open your dashboard. If signup is unavailable, the page offers the existing early-access form instead.

## Bring what you have

Start with your company name and timezone. Add your technicians, customers, and service addresses at your own pace.

## See it before you save it

Your connected assistant prepares a draft. Review the names, addresses, and counts, then make any changes together.

## Make it yours

Accept the terms and verify your email to create the account. Complete routes, staff invitations, and billing inside Tide.

## Conversation starter

Help me set up my pool-service company in Chisel Tide. Check whether chat setup is available, start with my company and a few customers, help me add my technicians, and show me the full setup before creating the account.

## Connect a compatible assistant

Use https://app.chiseltide.com/api/onboarding/mcp with no connection-level authentication. Check availability before sharing records. Owner email verification is required to save. [Agent setup guide](https://app.chiseltide.com/SKILL.md).

## Can I start directly in my assistant?

A compatible assistant must connect to Tide first. An embedded review card appears in supported hosts; other compatible clients use text. Availability varies by host and plan. Checking your verification email may require opening your inbox.

## What can I bring into the setup?

A company name and timezone, up to 20 technicians, 100 customers, and 200 properties, with up to 10 properties per customer. These are chat-setup limits, not subscription limits. Drafts expire after seven days.

## Will my team or customers receive messages?

Saving a setup does not send staff invitations, customer messages, invoices, or service reports. Customer notifications and portal access start off. You configure access and communication afterward.

## Does this move my whole business?

Chat setup prepares a new account and basic records. It does not transfer historical visits, balances, schedules, payment credentials, or extra property contacts. For larger lists, use Tide’s separate bulk-import workflow.

## Does this give my assistant ongoing control?

No. The setup connection creates a new company. The existing-account integration requires separate sign-in and is read-only.
