Set up: four tiles
"Let's get started" shows four tiles. Each one reads Not started, In progress, Done, Skipped for now or Needs attention.
- Permissions: choose your project folder and accept the Terms and Privacy Policy; the rest is up to you.

- Connect your AI: pick the AI apps you use and download any you do not have yet.
- Install in your apps: Atlas installs itself in the apps you chose.
- Open Atlas appears once Permissions and Install are done.

- Connect integrations. Optional. Connect the services you work with now, or choose I’ll do this later. See Integrations.
- Connect your AI. Search for the AI apps you use and select them. Choose Download the selected apps for any not yet on your Mac, then choose Done. If you have no team yet, you are asked to make one; see Agents and teams.
