Start guide

Overview⁠

Attia is where your organization posts roles, collects applications, and moves candidates through a pipeline your team controls. This guide takes you from no account to a workspace you can hire from.

Two paths lead here. You are either the first person from your organization, in which case you create the workspace, or someone has invited you to one that already exists. Both are covered below.

Create a workspace⁠

Sign up at attia.app/sign-up. Nothing asks for a company address, so the email you already use is fine.

Signing up opens a three-step setup. Leaving it and coming back starts at the workspace step again, so finish it in one sitting if you can.

Name the workspace and pick its URL. The URL key is what appears in every link you share inside the product, as in attia.app/acme. A key is 3 to 32 characters of lowercase letters, digits and hyphens, and it has to start and end with a letter or a digit. Attia checks it as you type and refuses one that is reserved by the application, one another workspace holds, and one any workspace has used before. A known company's name and URL are reserved for people with a verified work email on that company's domain.

Your Business trial. A new workspace gets Business free for 14 days, and no card is needed. The trial includes $5 of AI credits for the Ask the AI agent step in Loops. After that it moves to Free unless you pick a plan in Settings > Billing.

Set up your profile. Your name, picture and title. They appear on your comments, on the work assigned to you and in the workspace member list, so a minute here saves a blank byline later. Skipping is fine; Settings > Profile does the same job.

Invite your team. Enter email addresses to send invitations, or copy the workspace invite link and share it yourself. This step is also skippable, and Settings > Members stays available afterwards.

Finishing setup lands you on your workspace home, which is a fresh Attia Agent chat. Settings > Preferences offers Inbox and My Applications instead.

What a new workspace comes with⁠

Creating a workspace seeds enough for it to accept its first application the same day:

• five job pipeline statuses
• a starter set of job labels and application labels
• one team, named after the workspace, with you as its lead
• a career site called Careers, with a home page ready to edit

All of it arrives in the language you signed up in, English or Norwegian, and every piece of it is editable.

Sign up with a work email and Attia also reads your company's website and looks the company up in the business registry. From what it finds, it fills in your company details and logo, writes a job template, makes job drafts from the listings on your website, writes the text on the career site's home page for the company, puts a photo from your website in place of the example photo, and copies the website's look onto the career site. When your website has a careers page, Attia also copies that page into the career site as a draft, with its sections, text and images. If the home page is still as Attia made it and the career site has never been published, the copy becomes the home page. The old home page is archived, not deleted, and you can restore it. Otherwise the copy is a new draft page, and "Make this the home page on next publish" makes it the home page. One item in your Inbox, "We set up Acme for you", reports each step with a link to what it made, and names what it could not do and what you can do instead. While it works, a spinner turns beside the workspace name at the top of the sidebar, and hovering it lists each step. The spinner stops once the item is in your Inbox. The jobs from your website and the career site stay drafts until you publish them. When setup has imported your company's ads from Nav, those jobs are Live and linked to their ads instead, and visitors see them when you publish the career site.

Type your company's website when you create the workspace, and Attia fetches the website's logo while you fill in the rest, so the workspace opens with that logo.

What is not there is example data. Apart from the jobs setup made, a new workspace holds no jobs, no candidates and no applications until you or your career site create them.

Join a workspace someone else created⁠

Follow the link your colleague sends. It opens attia.app/invite/<workspace>, where you sign in or sign up and then land inside the workspace.

If this is your first Attia workspace, one screen stands between you and it: your name, picture and title. You do not name a workspace, choose a plan or invite anyone, because the person who set the workspace up has already done all three.

One account can hold several workspaces. attia.app/select-workspace lists the ones you belong to.

Where to go next⁠

The Workspaces article covers the settings pages, changing the URL key and how deletion works. Teams explains how to divide hiring work and control who sees what. Jobs describes the job page and the properties a role carries. For your own account, Profile and Notifications are the two worth opening on day one.
