Section 1

Quickstart: 5-Minute Onboarding

Get up and running with your first high-velocity sales pipeline in minutes.

1Create your Organization & Workspace

Sign up with your work email. Nexo automatically provisions your dedicated multi-tenant workspace with sample sales pipelines and deal stages.

2Configure Stages & Properties

Navigate to your pipeline board. Add custom columns (Numbers, Dates, Users, Rollups, or Multi-File Attachments) and adapt stage names to your sales cycle.

3Invite Teammates & Assign Deals

Head to Workspace Settings > Members. Invite collaborators with granular role permissions (Admin, Member, or Guest).

Section 2

Model Context Protocol (MCP) & ChatGPT
