Onboarding

When you first sign up for thig.ai, the dashboard walks you through a guided onboarding flow to help you set up your workspace and create your first PRD.
Onboarding checklist on the admin dashboard

Getting Started Checklist

The dashboard displays a progress checklist with five steps. Each step links directly to the relevant page.

A progress indicator (e.g., “1/5 completed”) tracks how far along you are. You can collapse or dismiss the checklist at any time.

Quick Actions

Below the checklist, quick action cards give you immediate entry points:
  • Start New Project — Opens the AI chat to begin a new PRD conversation
  • Browse Templates — Jump to the Template Marketplace to pick a starting structure

Feature Highlights

The onboarding page introduces the three core capabilities of the platform:

AI Conversations

Describe your product idea in natural language. The AI asks targeted follow-up questions to gather requirements, then structures them into a professional PRD.

AI Wireframes

Auto-generate user flow diagrams, architecture diagrams, and wireframe sketches directly from your PRD content using Mermaid visualizations.

Export Anywhere

Once your PRD is ready, export it in six formats: PDF, Word (DOCX), HTML, Markdown, Notion, or Google Docs.

Tips for New Users

Set up your AI Profile first. Adding your role, industry, and tech stack helps the AI produce more relevant and tailored PRDs from the start.
Use Cmd+K (Mac) or Ctrl+K (Windows) to open the Command Palette. It is the fastest way to navigate to any page, project, or setting.
  • Start with a template — The marketplace has 12 industry-specific templates that give the AI a strong starting structure. You can always customize the output.
  • Iterate in chat — You do not need to get everything right in one conversation. Come back to the chat and refine sections as your thinking evolves.
  • Invite your team early — Collaboration features like comments, real-time presence, and shared templates work best with the whole team on board.
The onboarding checklist is only shown for new accounts. Once all steps are complete (or the checklist is dismissed), the dashboard switches to the standard stats and project overview.
