Sign up and start your free trial
Create your company's Poseidon account, confirm your email and finish the three setup steps.
Who this is for
The person setting up Poseidon for their company. You become the company's admin.
Before you start
- A work email address you can open right now. Poseidon sends a confirmation link to it.
- A password of at least 10 characters, with an uppercase letter, a lowercase letter, a number and a symbol such as ! or #.
- No card. Every new company gets a 14-day free trial, and no card is needed to start.
- Is your company already on Poseidon? Don't create a new company. Ask your admin for an email invitation or your company code (see Add your team).
Steps
Create your account
Go to app.poseidons.io/signup. Under What would you like to do?, choose Create a new company.
Fill in Company name, Your name, Work email and Password. Tick the box to agree to the Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, then click Create company account. You can also use Continue with Google or Microsoft.
If you signed up with your email, Poseidon shows Check your inbox. Open the email from Poseidon and click the confirmation link. Poseidon signs you in and goes on to the next step. If the link opens in another browser or on another device, go back to Check your inbox, click I’ve confirmed. Sign in and sign in with your email and password.
On Create your company, check the name and click Create company. Your 14-day free trial starts now.
Finish the three setup steps
Company details: add your main phone, company email, address and logo, then click Save and continue. They appear on every proposal, work order and invoice you send. Skip for now also works.
Your team: invite people by email or copy your company code (see Add your team). Click Continue, or Skip for now to do it later.
First task: add your first customer, add the starter NFPA inspection forms, or choose Finish and create a job or Finish and schedule an inspection. You can also just click Finish setup.
What happens next
- You land in Poseidon as your company's admin. Anything you skipped stays on the Get set up checklist on your dashboard.
- A banner shows how many days are left in your trial. Before it ends, choose a plan and add a payment method in Administration → Subscription.
- If no plan is active when the trial ends, Poseidon is locked for your whole company until an admin chooses a plan. Admins can still open Subscription; everyone else is asked to contact an admin.
Common questions
- Do I need a credit card to start?
- No. The 14-day free trial needs no card. You add a payment method when you choose a plan.
- Can my team use Poseidon during the trial?
- Yes. During the trial you can invite your whole team, by email or with your company code.
- The confirmation email didn't arrive. What now?
- Check your spam or junk folder. Then, on the Check your inbox screen, click Send the email again. You can send it again once a minute.
- Can I change my company name later?
- Yes. An admin can change it in Administration → Organization.
