Using sven
Get started with sven online
sven is an AI workspace you use in the browser: an assistant that reads the web while it works and, once you connect a computer, works on the files there. This section is for the people who use it every day. If you are building software on top of sven, start with the API overview instead.
Create an account#
Open sven and sign up. You land in the chat, and you can ask your first question straight away. To keep going you need credit: conversations are charged to your account at the prices on the pricing page, and you add credit under Billing.
Sign up as yourself for a personal account, or create an organisation to share one balance, one set of API keys and one history of usage with colleagues. Organisations and members explains the difference.
Find your way around#
Everything is reached from the sidebar of the signed-in app.

| Usage | What was charged, by function, model and day. See Usage and logs. |

| Settings | Your profile or organisation, members, appearance, models and chat. |
Things to try first#
- Ask a question that needs the web, such as the latest release of a tool you use. sven opens and reads the pages it needs and lists them in the conversation.
- Press the microphone beside the message box and say it instead. See Voice input.
- Connect the computer your project is on and ask sven to run its tests. See Your computer.
- Open Settings and choose a light or dark theme, or follow your system.
Using sven from a terminal#
sven also runs in a terminal, signed in to the same account with the same models and credit. That interface has its own documentation, which is linked from the side of every page here: sven in the terminal.
