Getting Started as a Member

This page explains how to join your organization in Mention and work through your first lesson.

Accepting your invitation

Your admin invites you to Mention by email. The invitation includes a link to create your account or sign in if you already have one.

  1. Click the link in the invitation email.
  2. Create your account (or sign in with an existing one).
  3. Accept the organization invitation.

If your invitation carried an Audience assignment, you are in that Audience as soon as you accept, and its content is available to you immediately.

Signing in

After your account is set up, sign in at mentionai.app. You land in your first Audience — what you are told and what you still have to learn. Any other Audiences you belong to are one click away in the audience switcher at the top of the sidebar.

If you belong to multiple organizations, you may be asked to select one. Use the organization switcher to choose the organization you want to work in.

What you see first

Opening an Audience lands you on Chat, where you can ask anything about your Audience's material in your own words; the most-asked questions your organization has already answered are listed beside the conversation, each serving its answer on a click. The sidebar carries Lessons — everything you're expected to work through, grouped under the topic each one explains, each showing where you stand on it — and Review, with a badge counting anything due.

Each entry is two things: an article, the document Mention wrote for it, and a lesson, a short sequence of exercises built from that article. The article is what you read; you finish the entry by working through its lesson, which you start from the prompt on the article itself.

The audience switcher at the top of the sidebar names the Audience you're in — if you belong to more than one, pick another there to switch.

If you are not assigned to any Audience yet, you see a message letting you know. Contact your admin to be assigned. If you are assigned but the Audience lists no entries, your Audience's owner hasn't added anything yet.

Your first steps

  1. Open the first entry from the Lessons page and read its article
  2. Start the lesson from the prompt on the article, then attempt each exercise — commit to an answer, then read the correction you earn
  3. Ask a question on Chat if something is unclear
