Getting Started
Welcome! This guide will walk you through setting up your JackAI Nexus account, configuring your organization, and taking your first steps toward AI-powered customer engagement.
Creating Your Account
Getting started with Nexus is quick and straightforward:
- Visit the signup page — Go to nexus.jack-ai.net and click Sign Up
- Enter your details — Provide your email address, a strong password, and your organization name
- Account created — You'll be logged in immediately, and a unique subdomain will be created for your organization (e.g.,
yourorg.nexus.jack-ai.net) - Verify your email — Check your email for a verification link (optional but recommended for account security)
That's it! You now have a dedicated workspace on the Nexus platform.
First Login & Onboarding Wizard
When you log in for the first time, you'll be guided through an onboarding wizard that helps you set up Nexus in minutes:
The wizard covers:
- Organization basics — Confirm your organization name, set your timezone, and choose your default language (English or Arabic)
- Team setup — Add your first team member (optional at this stage; you can skip and do this later)
- Channel integration — Choose your first channel to connect (WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram, or Web Chat)
- AI configuration — Review the default AI assistant settings and knowledge base options
- Completion — Access your main dashboard and start working
You can exit the wizard at any time and return to it later from Settings → Onboarding, or skip directly to your dashboard.
Configuring Your Organization
After onboarding, customize your organization settings to match your business:
In Settings → Organization:
- Organization Name — Your business name (displayed to team members and in reports)
- Timezone — Set your local timezone; this affects scheduled tasks, reporting times, and team availability
- Default Language — Choose English or Arabic; team members can override this in their personal settings
- Subdomain — Your unique Nexus URL (e.g.,
yourorg.nexus.jack-ai.net) — read-only after creation - Logo & Branding — Upload your company logo (displays in emails and portal pages)
Optional settings:
- Conversation preferences — Customize how conversations are labeled and organized
- AI settings — Configure the default AI model, temperature, and response behavior (see AI Assistants & Knowledge Base)
