# Quickstart

> Get up and running with Searchable in under 5 minutes

## Setup your account

You can set up your account by following [this link](https://app.searchable.com/onboarding). If this is your first time using Searchable, you'll need to complete a simple onboarding form, at the end of which you'll have your first domain all set up!

To complete the setup quickly and easily, make sure you've got this information on hand:

* Your details - name, email that you have access to
* Location of your business - city & country
* Your brand's reach - worldwide, nationwide, or narrower
* Your target website (e.g. yourwebsite.com) that you want to analyse
* 1-5 of your main competitors

## Adding your first domain

Your first domain will be created as part of the onboarding - no additional actions required!

## Run your first audit

Searchable's audit system provides comprehensive analysis of your site's SEO and AEO performance.

As soon as you set up your domain, Searchable will automatically fetch every page of your website using your sitemap. You'll be able to see the full list of URLs in the On-Page > Site Health section of the platform.

<Tip>
  Connecting your Google Analytics 4 will allow you to prioritize pages based on traffic they generate.

## Set up your Knowledge Base

Knowledge Base is how you tell the Searchable Agent all about your brand voice, writing style, and content preferences.

### Brand Snapshot

Your brand in a nutshell. We will automatically generate an overview of your brand from your website, but you can always amend it or add additional instructions and files.

### Voice & Style

Your brand's voice is unique, so let's make sure that is reflected in your content. Set the tone, writing complexity and preferred terms.

### Competitors

Competitors won't only show up in your Visibility reports, but also inform what content gaps you have in comparison. We will automatically suggest some, but you can always amend the list.

### Terminology

Define terms, products and use cases that matter the most, so that they are highlighted in your content.

### Compliance

Add disclaimers, regulatory guardrails and restricted claims. Saves time for you and your legal team!

<Warning>
  Always double-check generated content with claims and disclaimers. AI can make mistakes.
