Step by step
- Open your invitation. Open the invitation link from your email. Emitii has no public sign-up, so this link is how your account is created.
- Set how you will log in. Either continue with the Google account the invitation was sent to, or enter your name and a password of at least 10 characters and choose Create account.
- Choose a workspace. If your email belongs to more than one workspace, pick one on the Choose a workspace screen. You can switch later from the top bar.
- Look around Home. Home shows what needs you, your spaces, overdue and upcoming work, and recent activity across your spaces.
- Open your first space. Select Spaces in the left rail and open a space you were added to, or choose Create space if you are allowed to start one.
- Turn on notifications. Open Settings, go to Notifications and choose Turn on notifications. On an iPhone, add Emitii to your Home Screen first.
Before you start
Emitii is invite-only. There is no public sign-up form, so an admin in your organisation has to invite you first. If your company does not have a workspace yet, the Emitii team sets one up and invites its owner; you can request access on the contact page.
Accepting an invitation
Your invitation arrives by email. Opening it takes you to a page where you finish your account. A few things can happen here:
- The invitation has expired or was withdrawn. Ask your admin to resend it from Admin Console > Invitations.
- You already have an account. Log in instead. The invitation adds the new workspace to your existing account.
- You are logged in to another organisation. Emitii asks you to log out and continue, so the invitation lands on the right account.
Logging in
The login page offers two methods:
- Continue with Google. Use the same Google account the invitation was sent to. A different Google account will not match the invitation.
- Email and password. Passwords must be at least 10 characters. If you forget yours, use "Forgot password?" on the login page to get a reset link.
Your Settings page shows which methods your account uses.
Choosing a workspace
One account can belong to several workspaces, for example your employer and a partner company. When that is true, you see a "Choose a workspace" screen after logging in. Unread messages in your other workspaces show as a dot, so you know when to switch. See Workspaces for more.
The left rail
The rail on the left is how you move around Emitii:
| Rail item | What it opens |
|---|---|
| Home | Your personal start page: what needs you, your spaces, overdue, upcoming and recent activity |
| AI | The Emitii AI assistant, shown only when AI is turned on for your workspace |
| Chats | Direct messages, group messages and the Pulse chat of each space |
| Events | My calendar, with events from every space you are in |
| Spaces | Every space you belong to |
At the foot of the rail, admins see the Admin Console and members see "Your access", which lists your level in each space. Guests see neither. Press Ctrl+K (or Cmd+K on a Mac) at any time to search spaces, conversations, people and content.
Your first space
A space holds the work for one client, project or team: its Board, Tasks, Schedule, Docs & Files, Pulse and more. Most people start inside a space someone else created. If you can create spaces, choose Create space, give it a name and pick a type. The Spaces guide covers types and modules in detail, and the project management overview explains how the pieces fit.
