Get started in three steps

Set up User Intuition and conduct your first AI-powered user interview.

Step 1: Get your API credentials

  1. Sign in to your User Intuition Dashboard
  2. Navigate to SettingsAPI Keys
  3. Generate a new API key and copy it securely
Keep your API key secure. Never expose it in client-side code.
Set up your API key as an environment variable:
export USER_INTUITION_API_KEY="your_api_key_here"
We recommend using a secrets manager in production environments.

Step 2: Create your first assistant

Create a custom AI assistant tailored to your research goals from the dashboard, or use the API:
curl -X GET "https://api.userintuition.ai/api/assistants/" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $USER_INTUITION_API_KEY"
Customize your assistant with:
  • Research objectives — What insights are you looking for?
  • Question flow — Guide conversations naturally
  • Follow-up prompts — Dig deeper into responses
  • Voice settings — Choose the right tone for your users

Step 3: Invite participants

Use the API to create interview invitations:
curl -X POST "https://api.userintuition.ai/api/invites/" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $USER_INTUITION_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "assistant_id": "your_assistant_id",
    "emails": ["[email protected]"],
    "send_emails": true
  }'
