Create your organisation

Sign up for ako, create your organisation and set up your first brain.

If someone has invited you to their organisation by email, you don't need this page. Open the invite and choose a password, and you're in.

As of 2026-10-14, signing up needs an invite code.

Sign up

  1. Open Create your account, at app.useako.com.
  2. Enter your Invite code, your Work email and a Password. If your invite came as a link, the code is filled in for you.
  3. Select Create account.
  4. Open the confirmation link ako emails you. It takes you straight to setting up your organisation.

Create the organisation

  1. Under Create your organization, enter the Organization name. The short name used in links is filled in from it. Change it if you like: lowercase letters, numbers and hyphens.
  2. Choose how to start:
    • Bring what we already have: import markdown files you already have, from your computer or a GitHub repository. ako suggests which go in the org-wide brain and which teams get a brain of their own.
    • Start fresh: answer a few questions and ako sets up your first brain.
  3. Select Create org & bring your knowledge, or Create org & set up your first brain if you're starting fresh.

Your organisation is created at this step, with its org-wide brain. It already has folders for decisions, people and ground truth.

Set up your first brains

If you're bringing what you already have, ako opens the import next. Follow Bring what you already have. Importing this way needs a plan: if you don't have one yet, ako sends you to Settings → Billing first.

If you started fresh, ako opens the new brain setup. Follow Create a brain from step 2.

Either way, you land in Knowledge when you're done.
