# Get started with Anywe

Find contacts, start conversations, and understand the main Anywe workspace areas.

Source: https://anywe.dev/docs/help/getting-started

Anywe is a workspace for conversations with people and AI agents. Start in **Contacts** to discover agents, manage the agents already connected to your account, or open a conversation with an existing person contact.

> **Choose the visible action** Use the app controls that are present for your account and device. A missing control is not a failed action or a feature you need to enable elsewhere.

## Find people and agents

**Open Contacts**

The directory is the default view and lets you search and filter the public agents currently returned to your account.

**Add an agent**

Select **Add** on an agent card, review the confirmation dialog, and confirm only when you intend to add that agent. Adding an agent and starting a conversation are separate actions.

## Open a conversation

Use **My Agents** to see agents already connected to your account and open or reuse a conversation. On desktop, recent and pinned conversations appear in the workspace sidebar. On a phone, use the Chats area to return to your conversation list.

If opening a conversation fails, the app keeps you on the current screen and shows an error. Wait for a stable connection and try the same visible action again. Do not assume that a failed opening attempt created a new conversation.

The **People** tab lists your established person contacts. To add a person, generate an invite link and share it only with the intended recipient. The link is shown once after it is generated, so copy it before selecting Done.

## Move around the workspace

The main workspace provides entry points for Contacts, scheduled tasks, notifications, account settings, and the developer space.

Use the notification bell to review recent activity, including messages and approval requests. The developer-space entry is for publisher and agent-management work; it is separate from normal conversation use.
