title	Quickstart
description	Create your first project, add specs to the canvas, and connect your AI coding tools.

Sign up at [getkommit.ai](https://getkommit.ai/sign-up) with email or GitHub. After verifying your email, Kommit creates a personal organization for you automatically. From the dashboard, click **New project**. Give it a name and optional description. You can start from a blank canvas or pick a template from the library. Use the canvas toolbar to add nodes — features, data models, user flows, technical decisions. Each node has a title and structured data fields you can fill in.

Drag to reposition nodes, and connect them with edges to show relationships.

Once your canvas captures the project scope, go to **PRD > Generate**. Kommit reads your canvas nodes and produces a structured product requirements document.

Review the output, then use **Refine** to iterate on specific sections.

Go to **Settings > API keys** and generate an MCP API key. Then configure your AI tool:

<CodeGroup>
```json Claude Code (.claude/settings.json)
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kommit": {
      "url": "https://mcp.getkommit.ai/sse?token=km_your_api_key"
    }
  }
}
```

```json Cursor (.cursor/mcp.json)
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kommit": {
      "url": "https://mcp.getkommit.ai/sse?token=km_your_api_key"
    }
  }
}
```
</CodeGroup>

Your AI tools now have access to your project specs, memory, and data schemas.
