Getting Started

Quick start

From a fresh install to your first verified build in five steps.

  1. 1. Install Sarathi

    If you haven't yet, see the Installation guide.

  2. 2. Activate your license

    Your 7-day Pro trial starts when you activate. Follow the Activation guide — it takes about a minute.

  3. 3. Add a model API key

    Sarathi is local-first: it calls the model APIs you configure, with keys you supply. Open Settings and paste an API key for any supported provider — OpenAI, Anthropic, DeepSeek, MiMo, and others. Your keys are stored locally and never sent to neuralsarathi.io.

  4. 4. Open a project

    Point Sarathi at a folder on your machine. This becomes the workspace the agent reads and writes. Your source code never leaves your computer.

  5. 5. Describe what you want

    Ask for a feature, a fix, or a refactor. Sarathi plans the work, writes the code, and verifies it — running real checks (syntax, imports, a headless browser) before handing the result back to you. You approve before anything runs outside the workspace.

That's it. Everything else — model selection, memory, advanced configuration — you can explore as you go.
