· Four cards below mirror TinyHumans Getting Started: install, sign in to the product, connect mail/chat and wait one sync lap, then try a prompt. Jump into linked guides anytime for screenshots and troubleshooting.

Step 1

Download and install

Grab the TinyHumans desktop build, run the installer, then launch OpenHuman once—same roadmap as Getting Started §1 ↗.

Step 2

Sign in (product account)

After the splash copy, attach your OpenHuman identity. Friendly onboarding text is normal; SmartScreen/Gatekeeper and OS permission banners are handled on the checklist below.

Signing in here is not the Gmail/Slack browser consent—that happens when you deliberately add connectors in step 3.

OpenHuman onboarding welcome splash — Splash / invite to continue—the exact slogan changes between beta drops.

Step 3

Connect sources & wait (~20 min)

Pick Gmail, Slack, or another connector—the vendor OAuth window pops separately. Schedulers ingest roughly every ~20 minutes; the first pass is when answers suddenly feel grounded.

Step 4

Run a first prompt

Once a connector crawl finishes (or after you patiently wait one lap), switch to conversational mode and ask something that relies on synced mail or chat—“what slid through my inbox this morning?” style questions work better than existential trivia until data shows up.
