# Quick Setup Guide

> Go from sign-up to your first AI visibility results in a few minutes.

This guide takes you from sign-up to your first results. The goal: get meaningful, actionable insight into your AI visibility within your first week. Setup itself takes only a few minutes - the rest is KIME collecting data across AI models and helping you and your team on how to optimize your visibility.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Choose how you'll use Kime">
    On first sign-in, pick **Business** (track your own brand) or **Agency** (manage client brands). Not sure? See [Business vs Agency](/getting-started/business-vs-agency).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect your brand">
    Enter your brand name and root domain. Kime analyzes your brand and builds a starter profile with suggested prompts and competitors. See [Connect your brand](/getting-started/connect-your-brand).
  </Step>

  <Step title="Review prompts and competitors">
    Approve the proposed [prompts](/getting-started/setting-up-prompts) and [competitors](/getting-started/adding-competitors) that fit, and add your own. Good prompts mirror the real questions customers ask AI, like *"What's the best CRM for a small marketing team?"* - not keywords. These define what KIME tracks.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Pick your answer engines">
    Confirm which AI models are active for the workspace in [Answer Engine Selection](/getting-started/answer-engines). Choose which models you would like to track and optimize your brands' visibility on.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Let your first results come in">
    KIME runs your prompts across the selected models and populates your dashboard. Your first full set of scores appears once the initial run completes.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Explore your dashboard">
    Open the [Dashboard](/dashboard/dashboard-overview) to see your visibility, placement, sentiment, and how you rank against competitors.
  </Step>
</Steps>

## What you'll have after setup

* A workspace tracking the prompts and competitors that matter to your brand and industry.
* Your first visibility, placement, and sentiment scores across the AI models you are tracking on.
* A baseline you can build on as you add more prompts and watch trends over time.
