Guardway's dashboard is a SaaS product at [app.guardway.ai](https://app.guardway.ai). Signing up is a four-step flow backed by Supabase Auth — no credit card required to start. ## Step 1 — Request access Go to [app.guardway.ai](https://app.guardway.ai) and enter your work email on the sign-in screen. If your email is new to Guardway, we'll provision your account and send an invite. Sign-in form ## Step 2 — Open the invite email You'll receive an invite from `no-reply@guardway.ai`. Click the **Activate account** link — it redirects you to the dashboard with a one-time token. Activation email The activation link expires in **1 hour**. If yours expired, return to the sign-in screen and request a new one. ## Step 3 — Set your password The activation link lands you on a **Create a password** screen. Pick a strong password (we recommend a password manager) and confirm. Set password form ## Step 4 — Land on the dashboard After confirming, you're signed in and redirected to the **Overview** page. You'll see empty KPI cards (requests, providers, latency, tokens, spend, uptime) waiting for your first gateway. Empty overview dashboard ## What happens under the hood * Your account is created in Guardway's Supabase project. * An **organization** is created automatically and you become its first owner. * The dashboard's middleware refreshes your session on every request; there's nothing to configure for auth. ## Next step The dashboard is empty until a gateway is online. Deploy one with a single `docker run` command.
