The first time you open Streamliner, one screen offers three ways in.

## Join an organization

Your organization sends you an invite link by email or text. Tap it and Streamliner opens on your organization's page, showing its name, its logo and how its people sign in. If tapping does not open the app, copy the link, open Streamliner, and under **Join an organization** choose **Paste**, then **Join**.

An invite tells the app which organization you belong to. It does not let you in by itself: you still sign in, and an invite may only work for the email address it was sent to. If the screen says *This invite can't be used*, ask for a new one. See Signing in and connections (GS-3).

## Just you: use on this device (free)

**Use on This iPhone (Free)** (on this iPad, on this Mac): no account, no sign-in, nothing stored on our servers. You make your own streamlines, point them at your own MCP servers and add your own Anthropic key. Everything stays on this device. See Using Streamliner on this device (FR-1).

## Look around: try the demo

**Try the Demo** opens a fictional jewelry retailer with three streamlines: Register, Approvals and Receiving. Everything runs on this device: the store's systems are simulated and the assistant is scripted. It works offline, needs no key, and nothing you type leaves the device. See The Meridian demo (GS-4).

## Changing your mind

The start screen is only for the first time. After that, the same three ways in are under **Join an Organization…**, in the account switcher and at the end of **Settings → Accounts**, which offers only the ones you don't have yet. Your accounts stay side by side; see Your accounts (GS-5).

- **Remove from Accounts** takes *On this device* off the list. Nothing is deleted: your streamlines, keys and chats stay, ready for when you come back.
- **Leave This Demo** deletes the demo's chats from this device.
- **Sign Out of This Organization** signs you out and removes that organization's chats and setup from this device.
