Step-by-step RIRD setup guide with messaging app icons

Zero to a working AI agent in five minutes. No API keys, no code, no infrastructure. Here is the whole process.

What You Need

  • A messaging app: WhatsApp, Telegram, Slack, or Discord
  • A RIRD account (sign up at rird.ai/#pricing)
  • A task you want to delegate

Step 1 -- Create Your Account

Go to rird.ai/#pricing. $49/wk gets you full access -- every tool, the stealth browser, and all security features.

Step 2 -- Create Your AI Agent

Name it, set the personality, enable the skills you need. The default config works great for most use cases.

Step 3 -- Connect a Channel

Telegram is the fastest -- click connect, open the deep link, send /start. Done. WhatsApp connects through the dashboard integration. Slack or Discord -- install the RIRD app in your workspace/server and DM the bot or mention it in channels.

Step 4 -- Send Your First Task

Open your chat app and type a task in plain language. Be specific about what you want and the format you need:

  • "Summarize my last 20 unread emails and draft replies to anything that needs a response today."
  • "Go to [competitor URL] and extract their full pricing table. Compare it against ours."
  • "Search Google News for mentions of [company] in the last 7 days. One-sentence summary each."
  • "Find 10 coworking spaces in Denver, compare pricing and amenities, and put it in a spreadsheet."

RIRD acknowledges the task, shows its plan, and starts executing. Results land in the same chat thread.

Tips for Better Results

  • Be specific -- "Compare the top 5 CRM tools by price, features, and user reviews" beats "Find some CRM tools."
  • Specify format -- "Return as a table with columns: Tool, Price, Rating, Pros, Cons" gets structured data.
  • Use recurring tasks -- "Check this every Monday at 9am" or "daily at 6pm."
  • Give feedback -- if results miss the mark, reply with what was wrong. RIRD adapts.

Most users get results within the hour. Start with whatever repetitive task eats the most of your time -- research, data entry, email, scheduling, monitoring. RIRD handles everything from market research to vendor comparison to inbox management. See the full documentation for advanced workflows.
