Onboarding (the 4-step welcome wizard)
Also known as: welcome wizard, guided setup, getting started wizard, first-run experience. The /onboarding page runs this automatically on your first login.
When you first sign up, Aigeon opens a 4-step guided wizard at /onboarding that walks you from empty org to first send.
The four steps
- Upload contacts — upload a CSV or skip to use the API later. Duplicate emails are merged; the first row wins for conflicting fields.
- Setup details — confirm your organization name, logo, brand color, and timezone. These seed template defaults and email headers.
- Create a template — pick from the Template Market or start from blank. You'll be dropped into Editor v2 with a simplified toolbar.
- Set up your first send — create a one-time campaign using the uploaded list and the template you just saved. Send-now or schedule.
Each step is skippable and resumable — close the tab and it'll pick up where you left off when you come back.
Re-running the wizard
Open Settings → Owner → Restart onboarding at any time to relaunch the wizard. Useful if you want to walk a new team member through the first-run flow without losing your existing data.
Prefer to start fresh?
If you'd rather configure Aigeon manually, every onboarding step maps 1:1 to a page in the main console:
- Upload contacts → Contacts & lists
- Org details → Settings → Organization
- Create template → Email templates
- First send → Campaigns
Onboarding for large migrations
If you're migrating from another ESP (Mailchimp, Beehiiv, ConvertKit, SendGrid, …) with a big list or complex automations, don't self-serve. Email support@aigeon.ai and our team will drive the migration end-to-end — CSVs, template rebuilds, DNS setup, warmup schedule. Most publishers go live in 1–2 weeks. See Account set up & onboarding for the full managed-migration path.
