Getting started

Three things worth knowing before you pick a place to start.

1. Start with one product, not four

Plot is a family of tools rather than one application, and they are built to be useful on their own. Pick the one that answers the problem you have this week. You can add another later without starting over.

2. One Plot account covers all of them

You sign in to Plot, not to a product. The same account works wherever you go next, so nothing has to be set up twice.

Use a personal address you will still have if your job changes. You can connect a work account to it afterwards, and that keeps the things you have built in Plot with you rather than with an employer.

3. Connect an account once

A connection belongs to your Plot account rather than to one product, so a calendar you connect is a calendar every Plot product you use can read. You grant each piece separately, and disconnecting stops it everywhere at once.

• Your calendar, and the invitations waiting on an answer.
• Your mail, and the threads that need a reply.
• The chat where the decision actually happened.
• Your lists, and the people you work with.
