Who this is for
This article is for users who want to sign up for Searcle themselves and create a new workspace.
Use this guide if:
You were not invited to an existing Searcle workspace
You want to create a new workspace from scratch
You are setting up Searcle for the first time
What you’ll do
You’ll sign up for Searcle, create your workspace, review the information Searcle gathers about your company, prepare your workspace for launch, and complete the required steps to make your AI subdomain live.
You can access your workspace as soon as it’s created.
Setup is not complete until your domain is verified and your AI subdomain is live.
Step 1 — Sign up and access your workspace
Go to:
Choose a sign-in method:
Continue with Google
Sign in with email (magic link)
If you use email sign-in, enter your work email and select the link sent to your inbox. No password is required.
After your first login, you can return anytime via the same sign-in page using Google or a new magic link.
Step 2 — Create your workspace
On your first login, Searcle asks for a few required details to create your workspace.
You’ll be prompted to provide:
Your name
Company name
This allows Searcle to gather background information about your brand.
Content subdomain
This is where your AI-driven content will live (for example, ai.yourcompany.com).
Using ai as the subdomain prefix is recommended, but you can choose another prefix that fits your brand guidelines. Finish onboarding to create your workspace.
Step 3 — Let Searcle gather your company information
Right after onboarding, you’ll land on the Knowledge Base page with a short list of “Looking up…” items. This is a live checklist showing what Searcle is gathering about your company.
This may include:
Basic company information
Products and services
Ideal customer profiles (ICPs)
Use cases and case studies
Brand voice, tone, and writing style
Competitors
Industry trends and competitive signals
Trust and compliance information (for example, privacy frameworks)
Third-party citations (news and industry publications)
There’s nothing you need to do during this step.
Give it a few minutes for the process to complete.
Once finished, you’ll be able to review and update all gathered information.
Step 4 — Prepare your workspace before going live
Once your workspace is created and initial research is complete, review and configure the information that will be publicly visible.
These actions are not required to activate your subdomain, but completing them first ensures what goes live is accurate and on-brand.
Review your company information
Company information powers Searcle’s content and AI answers.
You should review it early to:
Correct inaccuracies or outdated details
Add missing context about products, use cases, or brand voice
Remove information that doesn’t apply
Review pre-generated content
Searcle may generate initial content for your workspace.
Reviewing this content helps you:
Understand what will be published
Edit or remove anything that isn’t accurate
Confirm tone and structure before going live
Configure personalization
Personalization controls branding elements like logos, CTAs, and page styling.
Configuring this before activation ensures:
Your AI subdomain matches your brand
Users see the correct visual and messaging from day one
Step 5 — Verify your domain to complete setup
Your Searcle setup is not complete until your domain is verified and your AI subdomain is live.
Domain verification is required to:
Make your AI subdomain publicly accessible
Enable publishing and hosting features
Complete Searcle setup
Until domain verification is complete:
You can access your workspace
Your AI subdomain is not live
Publishing and hosting features remain inactive
Completing domain verification requires admin access to your domain’s DNS provider.
If you don’t manage DNS yourself, invite the teammate who does so they can complete verification.
What you can do next
After your domain is verified and your AI subdomain is live, you can continue expanding and optimizing your setup:
Collaborate on setup, content, and ongoing management.
→ Invite and manage team members
Refine keywords and optimize content for better discoverability.
Track traffic, impressions, and engagement over time.
Troubleshooting
I don’t see my company information yet
Initial research can take a few minutes. Stay on the Knowledge Base page and allow the process to finish.
I made a mistake during onboarding
You can update company information later from the Knowledge Base.
I don’t manage my domain’s DNS
Invite the teammate who manages DNS so they can complete domain verification.
I can’t sign in again
Return to the sign-in page and request a new magic link.
