Quickstart

This guide walks you through creating your Coral account, setting up your AI assistant, and sending your first message.

Step 1: Sign in

Navigate to Coral and sign in with your Google account, or create an account with email and password.

Step 2: Choose a plan

After signing in, you’ll be prompted to choose a plan. Each plan includes a monthly credit allowance for AI model usage. The Standard plan offers a 7-day free trial — no payment required upfront. See Billing & Credits for full plan details.

Step 3: Configure your assistant

The setup wizard asks two things:
  1. AI provider — Choose “Use our API keys” (recommended) to get started immediately, or “Bring your own key” if you have your own OpenAI/Anthropic/Google API key.
  2. Agent name — Give your assistant a name (defaults to “Coral”).
Using our API keys means you don’t need to create accounts with AI providers or manage billing with them separately. Usage is tracked against your Coral plan credits.

Click Launch OpenClaw to provision your sandbox. This typically takes 30-60 seconds.

Step 4: Start chatting

Once your sandbox is ready, you’ll land on the chat page. Your assistant defaults to the Standard model tier (Claude Sonnet 4.5) — you can change this anytime in Settings. Type a message to start a conversation.

The chat page shows suggested prompts to help you explore what your assistant can do. You can also:
  • Attach files — Drag and drop or click the attachment button to share images and documents.
  • Browse use cases — Visit the Use Cases tab to discover pre-built prompts for common tasks.
