## Start with outcomes

OpenWork works best when one worker owns one repeatable outcome. The goal is to make recurring work easier to run, review, and share.

## Start in the app

The easiest first run is the desktop app.

- Install OpenWork.
- Create one worker for one outcome.
- Run one visible task before you add more automation.

## Share with teammates

One person can set up the worker, then everyone else can join the same flow.

- Fastest: send `OpenWork invite link`.
- Manual: share `OpenWork worker URL` + `Access token`.
- Best practice: keep one worker per team or domain instead of mixing everything together.
