Getting started

From a new MAY workspace to your first customer journey.

Use this sequence to configure the platform in a sensible order and avoid rebuilding the same setup twice.

1. Complete your business profile

Finish onboarding in Business Admin so MAY knows the business identity, industry context and the core information needed by the rest of the workspace.

2. Add locations and your team

Set up the locations customers can interact with and invite the people who will manage conversations, CRM activity and administration.

3. Build the catalogue

Add products or services as structured data. Use catalogue fields for facts that should be precise: price, variant, attributes, availability, location-specific commercial information and other business-defined fields.

4. Add approved knowledge

Upload business documents, policies, brochures, FAQs and other approved sources. Keep structured product facts in Catalogue and explanatory documents in Knowledge.

Recommended pattern

Use Catalogue for exact attributes and Knowledge for explanation, policy and supporting documents. This makes answers easier to verify and maintain.

5. Configure your AI employees

Use MAY Studio to define how each customer-facing AI employee represents the business, what role it performs and how it should hand off to another specialist or a human team member.

6. Add workflows

Connect customer intent to actions such as lead updates, follow-ups, appointments, quotes, notifications and handoffs. Start with the smallest workflow that creates a useful outcome, then expand.

7. Connect channels

Connect the channels your customers use. For a website, follow the website widget guide. For custom applications, use the API guide and webhooks.

8. Test before launch

Customer answers use approved business informationKnown customer facts persist through follow-up questionsCRM state changes only when expectedHuman handoff keeps the conversation contextWidget/API access works only for approved domains and credentialsWebhook endpoints return a successful response
