# Quickstart

> From an account to a first useful answer in about ten minutes.

**1. Create your account**

Open Temperate and pick the region where your organization must live. Then fill in **Name**, **Email** and **Password**, and select **Create account**.

Then open the link Temperate emails you.

**2. Name your organization**

Fill in **Organization name** and select **Continue**. Temperate creates your first space, **General**.

**3. Ask your first question**

Select **New chat** in the sidebar. Type a question in the field and press **Enter**.

Use **Shift+Enter** for a new line. Select the plus to add a file, such as an invoice or a contract.

**4. Connect a system**

Open **Plugins** in the rail, select a system you use, then select **Connect** and approve Temperate there.

Now ask about your own data: "Which invoices are still open, and who owes the most?"

**5. Invite a colleague**

Open the menu at your picture, select **Settings**, then **Members**. Fill in the **Email** of a colleague, pick a **Role** and the spaces they start in, and select **Send invitation**.
