Quickstart

This guide walks you through the full Kommit loop — from creating an account to exporting a production-ready PRD.

Step 1: Sign up and request access

Kommit is currently invite-only.

  1. Go to getkommit.ai and click Request access.
  2. Fill in your name, email, and a brief description of what you're building.
  3. Once approved, you'll receive an invitation email. Click the link to activate your account.
  4. Sign in with GitHub or email/password.

Access is typically granted within one business day. Early users shape the product roadmap — feedback is welcomed and acted on.

Step 2: Create your first project

After signing in you'll land on the dashboard.

  1. Click New project in the top-right corner.
  2. Enter a project name — this becomes the title of your PRD.
  3. Click Create. You'll be taken directly to the canvas.

Step 3: Add nodes to the canvas

The canvas starts with a single Project node at the centre.

  1. Click Add node in the toolbar (bottom of the canvas).
  2. Choose a node type from the menu: Audience, Competitors, Tech Stack, Features, or Assets.
  3. Drag nodes into position. Connect related nodes by hovering over a node edge and dragging to another node.

Start with the Project, Audience, and Tech Stack nodes before adding Features. The AI uses context from earlier nodes to ask smarter questions about your features.

A good starting layout for most projects:

  • 1 x Project node (centre)
  • 1 x Audience node
  • 1 x Tech Stack node
  • 1 x Competitors node
  • 2–5 x Feature nodes (one per major feature)

Step 4: Chat with the AI on each node

Each node has its own AI conversation. Open a node's side panel by clicking it.

  1. Click on any node to open its panel.
  2. Switch to the Chat tab if it isn't already open.
  3. Type a message describing that aspect of your product. For example, on an Audience node: "Our target users are solo founders building B2B SaaS products. They're technical but don't have time for manual spec writing."
  4. The AI will ask follow-up questions to extract structured data — things like personas, pain points, and company size.
  5. Watch the Extracted Data section populate automatically as you chat.

Repeat this for each node. The richer the conversations, the better the PRD.

You don't need to fill every field. Chat naturally and let the AI extract what it can. You can always continue the conversation later.

Step 5: Generate your PRD

Once you've had conversations on your key nodes:

  1. Open any node's panel and click the PRD tab at the top.
  2. Click Generate PRD.
  3. The AI assembles all your node data and streams a structured PRD in real time.
  4. The PRD is automatically saved to your version history. You can regenerate at any time.

Step 6: Export

With your PRD generated, choose an export format:

  • Copy Markdown — Paste directly into Claude Code, Cursor, or any AI tool
  • Download PDF — Share with stakeholders or keep for your records
  • Download JSON — Use the structured data programmatically or via API

When pasting into Claude Code, prepend your Markdown export with: "Build the application described in the following PRD. Follow the tech stack and architecture decisions exactly." This produces the best results.
