Getting Started

Quick Start Guide

Get from sign-up to your first AI-assisted action in about five minutes. This guide walks you through the essentials.

Step 1: Create Your Account

1.Download Doughy from the App Store or visit doughy.app
2.Tap Sign Up and enter your email
3.Create a password and verify your email
4.Choose your primary role: Investor or Landlord (you can enable both later)

Step 2: Set Your Criteria

Your AI team needs to know what you're looking for. Head to your Criteria & Strategies settings and configure:

Target markets — the cities or zip codes you invest in
Property types — single-family, multifamily, commercial, etc.
Strategies — fix-and-flip, wholesale, rental hold, BRRRR, or value-add
Budget ranges — min and max purchase price, target ROI

Your agents use these criteria to filter leads, measure deals against your targets, and prioritize their work.

Step 3: Connect Your Services

Doughy works with the accounts you already use:

Google Calendar — syncs showings, inspections, and deadlines, both directions
Email — lets agents draft follow-ups and campaigns on your behalf; sending rolls out with early access
QuickBooks — we run our own books on it today, and connecting your own account is on the way

During early access, our team sets up connections with you — self-serve connect buttons are coming soon. Each connection is optional, and you can add more later as you need them.

Step 4: Review Your First AI Draft

Once your criteria are set, your agents will start working. Open your drafts and approvals to see what they've prepared:

A follow-up email to a new lead
A market research summary for your target area
A social media post about a recent listing

Each item shows who created it, what it does, and clear buttons for what to do next.

Step 5: Approve What's Waiting

Anything headed out of your workspace stops here first — see safety controls for exactly what that covers. Tap any waiting item to review it:

Message drafts offer Send, Edit, or Dismiss — tweak the wording, send it, or let it go
Actions in your approvals queue offer Approve, Reject, or Snooze — and they hold until you decide

That's it. Your AI team is now working for you. As you approve more of its work, your agents learn your preferences and get better over time.

From then on, mornings start with a short brief — what came in overnight, what went out, and what's waiting on you:
