# Account Setup: Configure Your Recruitcha Workspace

> Set up your Recruitcha account from scratch — connect LinkedIn, configure your profile, explore the Avatar add-on, and choose the right plan.

Before you launch your first signal, set up your workspace and understand how credits work. Recruitcha is a **data and signals platform** — you export hiring managers to your own outreach tools rather than sending messages from inside Recruitcha.

## Create your account

Go to [app.recruitcha.ai/register](https://app.recruitcha.ai/register) to sign up. After confirming your email, you land on the Recruitcha dashboard with **1,000 free credits** on the Solo plan.

| Plan     | Credits                   | Active signals | Renewal        |
| -------- | ------------------------- | -------------- | -------------- |
| **Solo** | 1,000 (one-time)          | 5              | Does not renew |
| **Pro**  | 5,000 per billing period  | 20             | Every 30 days  |
| **Pro+** | 20,000 per billing period | 50             | Every 30 days  |

See [Plans](/billing/plans) and [Credits](/billing/credits) for full details.

## Connect export integrations

To stream hiring managers to an external tool, connect your integration under **Settings** before exporting:

* **Instantly** — API key + target campaign
* **HeyReach** — API connection
* **Aimfox** — API key + workspace
* **Google Sheets** — Google account authorization
* **Atlas** — integration connection

CSV export requires no connection — download a file directly from the export modal.

## LinkedIn for Monitor Connections

If you use **Monitor Connections**, connect your LinkedIn account so Recruitcha can scan posts from your 1st-degree connections for hiring keywords. Job Listening and Market Mapping do not require LinkedIn for sourcing.

<Note>
  Recruitcha does **not** send LinkedIn sequences from the product. Outbound messaging happens in Instantly, HeyReach, Aimfox, or your ATS after you export data.
</Note>

## Workspace settings

Under **Settings → Profile**, set your timezone so signal run timestamps and billing cycles align with your working hours.

Workspace **owners** manage billing, credit top-ups, and plan changes under **Settings → Billing**. Members can create signals and export data but cannot purchase credits.

## Upgrade when you are ready

Start on Solo to validate signal targeting and export workflows. Upgrade to Pro or Pro+ when you need more monthly credits and active signal slots. Open **Settings → Billing** or use in-app upgrade prompts.
