Choose your first task

Pick the path that matches what you came to do. Each one ends with your AI doing something real with an app, not with a settings page.

Every path starts the same way: sign in to ahel. The Free plan needs no card.

#Use an app that already exists

You want your AI to work with a service you already pay for, such as a project tracker or a CRM.

1. Connect your AI to ahel. Claude is the quickest, and it shows cards.
2. Add the app from Discover and connect your account or key.
3. Ask your AI something only that app can answer, such as "list my open issues".

You will know it worked when the answer names your own data. If the app needs a key, Give an app a key shows where to paste it.

#Bring your own API or MCP server

You have an API with an OpenAPI document, or an MCP server you run, and you want it inside Claude or ChatGPT.

1. Connect your AI to ahel, so you can try the app as you build it.
2. Open Studio and start from your OpenAPI document or your server's address.
3. Try the app in your own AI before anyone else sees it.

The Studio section of these docs explains what Studio does today: Build and publish in Studio.

#Set up a team

You want several people to share apps and keys, and you want some calls to wait for a yes.

1. One person creates the workspace and connects their AI.
2. Add the apps the team needs and their keys, once, for everyone.
3. Invite your teammates, and set which calls need approval.

Teammates come with the Launch and Team plans; approval rules and the audit log with Team. Teams, approvals and billing explains what each plan includes.
