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 are taken straight into your first Audience — on a phone-sized window you get a list of your Audiences to pick from instead.

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

You land on the Audience's Hub (or on Ask, if you're already current with nothing left to do). Near the top of Hub sits an Ask box where you can ask anything about your Audience's material, and a Lessons counter in the page header tracks how many of the Audience's lessons you've finished.

Below that are the contents — the entries you're expected to work through, grouped by what each article is for. Each row shows where you stand on it. Clicking a row opens the lesson if you haven't finished it and the article once you have.

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. You finish an entry by working through its lesson, and the article opens up in full once you have.

The sidebar lists every Audience you belong to — if you have more than one, click another 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 contents list is empty, your Audience's owner hasn't added anything yet.

Your first steps

  1. Open the first entry to start its lesson
  2. Attempt each exercise — commit to an answer, then read the correction you earn
  3. Ask a question on the Ask tab if something is unclear
