Step 4: Join your team
Haiku detects teams connected to your work email. You’ll see teams that are set by admins as discoverable.
To join an existing team. Select it from the list. After admin’s approval, you'll have access to your team's shared haikus.
To start a new team. If you don’t select an existing team, we’ll create a new one for you automatically. You can invite people in the next step or after setup.
If no teams appear, your company may not be on Haiku yet, or have teams set as private. Create a new team and invite your colleagues when you're ready.
Step 5: Add the Chrome extension
Haiku captures workflows through a browser extension. This is the step that unlocks recording.
Add to Chrome. Free.
Once installed, a Haiku icon appears in your browser toolbar. Click it when you're ready to start recording a workflow.
Step 6: Create your first haiku
The last step puts you directly into your first capture.
Select Start capturing to record a workflow right now. Haiku walks you through it in 3 clicks.
Select Go to dashboard if you want to explore first and capture later.
What happens after setup

Start a new capture.
Browse your team's haikus.
Edit and share existing haikus.
Your haiku is ready to share the moment the capture ends.
