This guide takes you through brand setup and your first piece of marketing work. Have your brand name and a website, public profile, or useful brand file ready. If you have none of those yet, guided setup works too. Prefer to start on your phone? Choose Start on WhatsApp on daoco’s homepage when available. The assistant asks about your brand, sends a sign-in link, and helps you finish setup in chat. See Start from WhatsApp.

Set up and make your first result

1

Sign in and choose your brand

Sign in to daoco. Your workspace holds billing and team access; your brand holds its marketing context and work. If you already have more than one brand, choose the one this task is for. If you were invited to a team, use the invited email address.
2

Give daoco a starting point

Choose Personal brand for yourself as a creator, expert, or professional, or Business brand for a company or product. Enter the public name. Add your website or main profile, then any other links, files, or shared folders that explain the brand. Use guided questions if you do not have sources yet.
3

Review the brand profile

Check the audience, positioning, voice, key facts, colors, and profile image or logo. Correct anything missing or inaccurate before continuing. These become the defaults daoco uses for later work. You can update them after setup from Brand.
4

Connect what the task needs

Connect a social account if you want to publish there, or a business tool if the task needs its data. Connections are optional during setup. You can draft copy or make assets first and add accounts later through Connections. Check the provider guide for account and permission requirements.
5

Ask for one concrete deliverable

Setup offers suggested first tasks in a regular brand chat. Choose one or type your own request, then send it. You can also choose Skip to dashboard and start a chat later. State who the work is for, what it should achieve, and the format you want. The examples below give you a starting point.
6

Review and refine

Follow progress in the thread and review the result in chat or its workflow panel. Check facts and brand fit. Ask for changes in the same thread. For a social post, confirm the selected accounts and resolve readiness blockers before approving publication or scheduling. If you are writing a post yourself, use Manual post.

Pick a first task

Replace the bracketed details with your own. Add product facts, examples, or reference files when the request depends on them. If you want a saved post, ask for a draft; if you only need words to copy, say so.

Find your work again

Your chat thread keeps the request, progress, result, and revisions. Saved visuals are available in Assets. Use the calendar on Home to see scheduled and published posts and the metrics available for connected accounts. See Brand chat for run controls and Create posts for the publishing workflow.

Work from your assistant or AI app

Once your brand is ready, choose the way you want to use it:
  • WhatsApp for a personal assistant, or Slack and Discord for a team assistant. Open Assistants to connect one. See assistant setup.
  • An AI app through MCP to read your brand context, start work, and follow progress. Follow the AI apps guide under the MCP tab. These apps send you to daoco for approval.
  • Recurring tasks for ongoing work. Ask your assistant for a standing task, or configure it on its page. See recurring tasks.
Personal assistants, team assistants, and active AI apps share your workspace’s assistant slots. Work uses your workspace’s tokens. Check plans and tokens before starting larger requests.

Get support

Open the brand menu at the bottom of the sidebar and choose Support. Return to earlier conversations from the conversation selector, or start a new one for a different issue. Replies appear while the panel is open, and your conversations are available when you sign in on another device. Support includes your account identity, the page where you started the request, and available session diagnostics so the team can investigate. You can always email support@daoco.org, including when you cannot sign in or support chat is unavailable.
