User Guide
This guide will walk you through a simple step-by-step process for how to get started with SELF, and to make it the most useful it can be
Quick Version
- Create SELF account here.
- Start a conversation about anything. SELF is ready to learn about you, your preferences and your life. As you engage with and teach SELF about yourself and those around you, the more useful SELF becomes.
- Add your preferences manually or tell SELF about yourself, your life and your preferences through conversation.
- Ask SELF to provide tailored recommendations based on your preference data - travel destinations, restaurants, activities, daily practices, clothing, music, books, movies etc.
- Use SELF as a personalised and private search platform without the adverts or usual bias that happens online.
- Use SELF as a personal advisor that knows your preferences and lifestyle.
- Learn about the different ways to earn $SELF and the referral program here.
- Consider sharing your experience with SELF and submit feedback/feature requests through this page.
Detailed Version
1. Create your account
Click on 'Sign Up / Sign In' or 'Launch SELF' from the homepage. Enter the required information, including a referral code if you have one, and once you press 'Create account', check your email for a verification code. You won't be fully registered until you have confirmed this.
If you would prefer to create an account using Google, choose that on the base of the form. All this does is enable SELF to see your Google email address and nothing else. You can revoke that access at any time of course.
2. Explore Your Dashboard
The dashboard currently has 4 sections enabled:
Chat: Where all conversations with SELF take place.
Subscription: Upgrade to a Premium or VIP subscription to increase your daily message limit.
Referral program: Here, you will find your referral code, number of referrals and the amount of $SELF you’ve earned.
Preferences: This is where you manually enter your preferences (labelled 'Added by you'). Any preferences that SELF has picked up during conversations will also appear on this page (labelled 'Generated by SELF'). You can edit or delete both types of preferences using the button menu by the text.
3. Develop your SELF
Start a dialogue about anything. The more SELF knows about you, the more useful it becomes. It may be tempting to view SELF as an AI assistant and just fire instructions at it, but the magic happens when you've trained your SELF to be a digital version of you. Then, it's like having an advert-free search engine that knows what you prefer, or a private AI that remembers all your preferences.
Add your preferences manually or tell SELF about yourself, your life and your preferences through conversation. SELF is eager to learn anything from likes, dislikes, and future plans to personality traits, habits and the names of your significant others. SELF will remember and store everything in your private and secure memory bank, and you can update what's remembered via the preferences screen or during conversations.
4. Experiment and Customise
You may find you use SELF to summarise information or reviews, based on what you've already told SELF you prefer. Or, you might use SELF as a personal advisor, offering guidance and support - with the knowledge of what help you resonate with the most.
There are so many functionalities built in, and we’re sure you’ll find your favourite ways of using it as you dive deeper into your SELF.
