Create your community
The first time you sign up, you become the coach — the owner of the community.
Steps
- Go to your Hook site and click Get started.
- Create your account (name, email, password).
- You'll land on the Setup screen. Give your community a name and a short description.
- Click Create community — you're taken to your Dashboard.
That's it. Everyone who signs up after you joins as a member.
The fastest way in: try the demo. On the public site, Try the demo opens a short conversation with your Companion — he asks a few quick questions (your community's name, who it's for, what they're working through, the change you help them make, your look and your name), and reacts as you answer. At the end we email you a link: click it and you're signed straight in to your community — already themed, already named, and pre-populated with a welcome post in your voice and a starter "journey" course. No password to set up. (Prefer a password? The demo's last screen has a "set a password instead" option, and you can always sign up the classic way above.)
Next steps
- Set your branding — logo, brand color, favicon.
- Build your first course.
- Set up points & badges.
Tip: Invite your first members once you've added a little content — a welcome post in the feed and one course is a great start.
