Setting up ReqMe takes about ten minutes: create an account, verify your email, and walk through a four-step setup that ends with a working public request page.
Creating your account #
Register #
Open reqme.co and start the sign-up. Enter your name, email address and a password, then press Create an account. You can also sign up with Google.
Verify your email #
ReqMe emails you a code. Enter it, and you go straight into setup.
Every login needs a code #
After your password — or after signing in with Google — ReqMe emails a six-digit code and asks for it. This is not optional, and it is not a one-off for new accounts: it happens every time you sign in.
It is there because your account holds your clients’ details and your signed contracts. A leaked password on its own is not enough to reach any of it.
If the code does not arrive, check spam first, then check you are looking at the inbox for the address you signed up with. A code lasts ten minutes, so request a fresh one rather than reusing an older email.
Setting up your workspace #
Setup has four steps. You can change anything afterwards, so do not agonise over it.
Step 1 — Your website #
Enter your website address and press Analyze site. ReqMe reads the site and uses it to propose a description of your business and a list of the services you offer, so you are correcting a draft rather than filling in blank fields.
It takes a moment. If you have no website, skip it and type things yourself in the next steps — nothing later depends on it.
Step 2 — Business #
Confirm your company name, your industry, your country, and what you help customers with. If the site scan worked, most of this is already filled in.
Write the “what you help customers with” answer properly. It becomes your public description — the first thing a visitor reads, and something your AI assistant treats as fact about you. See Your company profile.
Step 3 — Services #
Review the services ReqMe proposed, correct the names to the words you actually use with customers, and add prices.
Prices matter more than they look. Without them your assistant cannot answer “how much is this?”, which is the question most visitors ask first. Where a price genuinely depends on the brief, a price range is better than nothing. See Services catalogue.
Step 4 — Activate #
You are given your public request page link and a QR code. Share the link, or put the QR code on something physical. Then Go to dashboard.
At this point you can already take requests.
What to do next #
- Add your logo and colours — Branding your request page.
- Put the assistant on your own site — the WordPress plugin or the widget.
- Connect a payment provider so invoices can be paid online — Connecting a payment provider.
- Send yourself a test request and walk it through to an invoice. Half an hour doing this teaches you more than reading the rest of these guides.
