# Quickstart: Set Up Terriqon and Generate Your First Report

> Set up Terriqon, build your first form, invite your field team, and generate your first AI report. No credit card required for the 14-day free trial.

This guide walks you through everything you need to go from a blank account to an approved, funder-ready report. By the end, you'll have created your organization, built a data collection form, invited at least one Field Officer, collected your first submission, and generated your first AI report — all in a single session.

<Steps>
  <Step title="Start your free trial">
    Go to [terriqon.com](https://terriqon.com) and click **Start Free Trial**. Enter your organization name, work email address, and a password to create your account. No credit card is required — your full 14-day trial begins immediately with access to all platform features.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set up your organization">
    After signing in, you land in the Organization Admin dashboard. Enter your organization's display name and configure your basic settings — including your default timezone and preferred report language. These settings apply across all projects and reports in your account.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Build your first form">
    Navigate to **Forms** in the left sidebar and click **New Form**. Give your form a name, then use the drag-and-drop builder to add the fields your field team will fill in. For any field that captures personally identifiable information — such as a beneficiary's name, phone number, or GPS location — toggle the **PII** tag on that field. Terriqon will automatically strip those values before your data reaches the AI reporting pipeline.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Invite your field officers">
    Go to **Team** and click **Invite**. Enter the email addresses of the Field Officers you want to add. Each person receives an invitation email with instructions to install the Terriqon PWA on their phone or tablet — no app store required. Field Officers are the only role that consumes billable seats on your plan.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Create a project">
    Navigate to **Projects** and click **New Project**. Give your project a name, select the form you just built, and assign the Field Officers who will collect data for this project. Projects keep your submissions, reports, and team access organized in one place.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Collect your first submissions">
    Ask one of your Field Officers to open the Terriqon PWA on their device. They'll see the assigned form and can begin filling it in immediately — whether they have internet access or not. If they're offline, the submission is saved locally and syncs to the platform automatically as soon as connectivity is detected. You'll see incoming submissions appear in your project dashboard in real time.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Generate your first AI report">
    Once you have enough validated submissions, navigate to **Reports** and click **Generate Report**. Select the report type that fits your need — **Project**, **Ops**, **Donor**, or **Portfolio** — and confirm. Terriqon validates the data, strips PII, and drafts the report. When the draft is ready, review it in the report editor, make any manual edits you need, and click **Approve** to finalize it. The report is only available for download after your approval.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Tip>
  Your first AI report is usually ready within 15 minutes of having enough validated submissions. The exact time depends on submission volume and the selected report type.
