Onboarding
After granting Accessibility permission, Vantic IQ walks through a short setup sequence — no workflow mapping, no tool configuration, no integrations. Five questions:| # | Question | Required |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | Your name | Yes |
| 2 | Business name | Yes |
| 3 | Sector | Yes |
| 4 | Team size | Yes |
| 5 | What eats most of your time? | Optional |
- Workflow signals only — no content, no screenshots, no keystrokes
- Privacy by architecture — structural constraint, not a policy promise
- You control what is observed — exclude any app or time window
- Silent until it has something worth saying
Your first session
When onboarding completes, the conversational interface opens. Vantic greets you by name and presents three tappable questions specific to your sector. If you provided a primary friction area in onboarding, Vantic acknowledges it and draws on what it already knows about that pattern in your sector — before any personal data has been collected.Your first week
Days 1–4: Observation is active. No Friction Score yet. The conversational interface surfaces one Friction Pulse per day — a single factual signal from your raw data with no pattern claimed. Days 3–5 (typical): The Pattern Engine reaches confidence on the first dimensions. Partial scores may appear before the full Friction Score is ready. Vantic tells you what it knows and what it doesn’t. Day 5+ (typical): A complete Friction Score is available and the conversational interface shifts from sector-intelligence mode to pattern-specific mode.If your first week is atypical — a quieter period, travel, an unusual project — it may take longer than 5 days. The Pattern Engine needs representative signal, not just dense signal.
