# How to start?

## 1. Signing Up

1. **Visit** Dormint’s official site (<https://agents.dormint.io/>)
2. **Register** with your email or connect a Web3 wallet for added security and direct token management
3. **Complete Onboarding**: You’ll be guided through basic steps like selecting user type, exploring AI Agents, and depositing DOAI if needed

> **Tip**: If you’re unsure, start as a **Consumer/Creator** to explore AI Agents. You can later add “Contributor” capabilities in your account settings

## Creating Your First AI Agent

1. **Open the Editor**: Click “New Workflow”
2. **Add a Trigger Node**: Choose an event trigger (e.g., a Cron schedule, or a user action)
3. **Add Processing Nodes**: Select from AI analysis nodes, data transformation nodes, or external API nodes
4. **Add an Output Node**: Send a response, a notification, or a DOAI reward
5. **Save & Activate**: Name your workflow, then toggle it “Active"

Your workflow is now live, ready to handle events and data flows!
