Getting started

Signing in and first setup

Sign in to the dashboard and complete the wizard that sets up your business and your first assistant.

What is this page for?

You sign in to the CallingBird dashboard with your email address and password. If you just created an account, you complete the setup wizard once and set up your business and your first assistant in a few steps. If a colleague invited you, you set your own password through the invitation email and skip this wizard.

How it works

  1. 1
    Sign in

    On the sign-in screen, enter your email address and password and click Sign in. If you've forgotten your password, use the Forgot password? link.

    Sign in with the email address your account was created with.
  2. 2
    Search for your business on Google

    The first step, Your business, searches Google as you type. Choose your business to prefill address, phone number and opening hours, or skip the step.

  3. 3
    Let us read your website

    Under Website import, enter your web address and click Import. CallingBird reads the site and prepares the content as knowledge for your assistant; you can edit the text right away. This step is optional too.

  4. 4
    Complete your details

    Under Details, check your company name, email address, phone number, address and opening hours. This is the only required step: you can't continue without these details.

  5. 5
    Set up your assistant

    Under Your assistant, choose the voice, the language and what your assistant is allowed to do, such as answering questions, recording notes or scheduling appointments. This is the same screen you'll find later under AI assistant.

  6. 6
    Do a test call

    Under Test call, call your assistant right in your browser to hear how it sounds. You can skip this too and always do it later from AI assistant.

Good to know

  • If a colleague invited you, open the link in the invitation email and set your own password there.
  • After creating an account, confirm your email address through the verification email first; you can't sign in without confirming.
  • Everything you set up in the wizard is saved and can be changed later in your dashboard.
