Getting Started

What does your user need to know to try your project?

This page is a work in progress. If you hit a wall, reach out to support@hipspec.com.

We are a software as a service business, we’re pioneering a new market dubbed “Requirements as a Service”. Basically, we help you and your team automate definition of simple parts of your software so you can focus on the interesting parts.

Consider using the headings below for your getting started page. You can delete any that are not applicable to your project.

Signing Up

  • Sign up here: https://app.hipspec.com/users/sign_up
  • If your organization has a team already, request access from the group admin.
  • If you are the first one in your organization to create an account, you will be the admin.
    • FYI: To invite team members, you will need to create a subscription.

Subscription

You will need a subscription before you add team members.

Enter in your credit card information into the form. Note, the submission to the payment processor might take upwards of 30 seconds.

Rename Your Group

When you sign up, we automatically create a group for you based on your email. If you are about to invite a team, we suggest you rename your group so that they recongize your invite.

Invite Team Members

Once you have added a subscription to your group, you should invite team members to collaborate!

You can invite a comma separated list of email addresses and bulk assign a role to them. If you need to edit a user role, you can do that after the invite has been sent - no problem.

Integrations

Next, we would suggest configuring an integration. You can find the integration link on the left side of the nav. We also have a section devoted in our docs to integrations. You can find that here.

What should I do after I add an integration?

  • You should search for a Story Spec that you’d like you team to work on
  • Once you find a Story Spec that’s relevant to the work you need to do, Import it into your project management tool!
  • If you need some demo specs to test out, try these: Demo Specs or this one

Feedback about Stories

  • If you have feedback about stories or a request, drop a note in the feedback box. They are on every Story Spec page.
  • See Screenshot below.

Bonus

  • Add Personas. Visit the Persona Library. Click the + to add it to your group.
