# Start Here

### Overview

Use this page as the default onboarding path for a new Account. Follow the setup steps in order.

### Key Concepts

#### Account, Organization, Project

Transform is organized by scope.

* **Account**: top-level container for all work
* **Organization**: container for a client, department, or business unit
* **Project**: delivery container for a single transformation initiative

#### Teammates

Teammates are people records with roles at one or more scopes. Access should follow least privilege.

#### Blueprints

Blueprints define reusable structure for new Projects. Blueprints reduce setup work and standardize governance.

### How It’s Used

Use this path during initial rollout. Use it again when onboarding a new Organization.

### Benefits

* Faster setup for new Organizations and Projects
* Consistent structure across initiatives
* Cleaner access control and auditability

### Setup Steps

{% stepper %}
{% step %}

### Create a Transform login

Create a login when signing in for the first time.

* [Create a Transform Login](/getting-started/create-a-transform-login.md)
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Create an organization

Create one Organization per client or department.

* [Create an Organization](/organizations-and-projects/create-an-organization.md)
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Invite teammates

Invite Teammates at the lowest scope that works.

* [Add Teammates](/organizations-and-projects/add-teammates.md)
* [Understanding Access Levels](/organizations-and-projects/understanding-access-levels.md)
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Build the first Blueprint

Start with a template. Customize after teams start using it.

* [Tutorial: Set Up a First Blueprint](/getting-started/tutorial-set-up-a-first-blueprint.md)
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Create the first Project

Create a Project from a Blueprint.

* [Create a Project](/getting-started/create-a-project.md)
  {% endstep %}
  {% endstepper %}

### Best Practices

* Create Organizations early to simplify access control.
* Standardize naming for Organizations and Projects.
* Keep Account Admin access limited.
* Establish a Blueprint before creating many Projects.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.transform.ai/getting-started/start-here.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
