  2. Create your account with your email address
  3. Verify your email and sign in
  4. You'll be redirected to the onboarding wizard

Choosing Your Mode​

The first step of the onboarding wizard asks you to select a mode:

Mode selection step

Sync Jira​

Choose this if your team already uses Jira as a ticketing system. This mode syncs work items between Jira and Clears AI, letting you trigger AI execution on stories from your existing Jira backlog.

Onboarding steps:

  1. Connect GitHub
  2. Connect Jira (OAuth)
  3. Configure Jira webhook
  4. Add Jira statuses
  5. Connect Slack (optional)

Follow the Sync Jira onboarding guide →

Standalone​

Choose this if you want to use Clears AI without Jira. You'll create and manage stories directly on the Clears AI Board.

Onboarding steps:

  1. Connect GitHub
  2. Connect Slack (optional)

Follow the Standalone onboarding guide →

:::tip Which mode should I choose? If you're evaluating Clears AI or your team doesn't use Jira, start with Standalone. You can always connect Jira later in Settings. If your team already has an active Jira backlog you want to automate, choose Sync Jira. :::
