Getting Started

Quick Start Guide

Get from sign-up to your first AI-assisted action in about five minutes. This guide walks you through the essentials.

Step 1: Create Your Account

1.Go to app.doughy.app/signup in your browser
2.Enter your email and choose a password
3.During the beta, enter your invite code on the next screen
4.Confirm your email with the six-digit code we send you, and your workspace opens

Step 2: Set Your Criteria

Your AI team needs to know what you're looking for. Open Criteria, under Acquisitions in the side navigation, and set:

•Target markets — the places you invest
•Property types — single-family, multi-family, commercial, etc.
•Strategies — the ones you use, with the returns you hold a deal to
•Your rules — anything else, in your own words

Each deal is then measured against your targets.

Step 3: Connect Your Services

Doughy works with the accounts you already use:

•Google Calendar — you can link a Google account with calendar access on the Connections page, and putting the bookings and viewings Doughy arranges onto it is still in testing; two-way sync is on the way
•Email — forward your mail in, and your assistant drafts follow-ups that send on your OK; campaigns are coming soon
•QuickBooks — we run our own books on it today, and connecting your own account is on the way

Connections you can set up yourself are on the Connections page in the app, and self-serve connect buttons for the rest are coming soon. Each connection is optional, and you can add more later as you need them.

Step 4: Review Your First AI Draft

Once your mail is coming in, your assistant starts on it. Open your drafts and approvals to see what it has prepared — a reply to a new inquiry, for example — or ask Doe for one:

•"Draft a follow-up email to my newest lead"
•"Write a social media post about my vacant unit"

Each item shows who created it, what it does, and clear buttons for what to do next.

Step 5: Approve What's Waiting

Anything headed out of your workspace stops here first — see safety controls for exactly what that covers. Select any waiting item to review it:

•Message drafts offer Accept, Discard or Try again, and nothing goes until you send it — tweak the wording, send it, or let it go
•Actions in your approvals queue offer Approve, Reject, or Snooze — and they hold until you decide

That's it. Your AI team is working for you, and anything that leaves your workspace waits for your OK.

From then on, mornings start with a short brief — what came in overnight, what went out, and what's waiting on you:
