How to use ShellStack and the apps.
Start here
Create an account, accept an invite, and see how the five apps divide the work.
- Getting started — Create an account or accept an invite, then open the first app from the same sign-in.
- How the suite fits together — Which app owns which job, and which records are shared so you only create them once.
ShellStack
The organisation: people, workspaces, calendar, reports, billing, and connections.
- Today, Apps and Activity — Use Today as the landing page, launch a product from Apps, and read the cross-app feed.
- People and access — Invite teammates, set roles, and decide which products, workspaces and clients they can open.
- Workspaces, clients and projects — Give each client or team a workspace, then keep the shared client and project directory in one place.
- Calendar and leave — Your connected calendars, the team’s leave, and your own memos — on one page.
- Dashboard reports — Read time, delivery, knowledge, AI and people in one place, with each product’s filters.
- Billing and plans — One subscription for the organisation: seats, workspaces, and AI credits.
- Settings, Bridge and API keys — Profile, single sign-on, outside apps, the Bridge, and personal API keys.
TurtleTime
Track hours, plan the week, and turn finished billable work into invoices.
- Track time — Start a timer or log a missed hour, on a day, week or calendar, against a project and an optional task.
- Projects, rates and forecast — Set up clients and projects, give people rates, and see who is planned this week.
- Timesheets, invoices and expenses — Submit a week, approve it, then build an invoice from finished billable time and expenses.
Tides
Clients, projects, and tasks on a board, list, or calendar.
- Boards, lists and the calendar — Set up clients, projects, statuses and tags, then run the work in All Tasks.
- Work on a task — Assign, comment, attach, relate, link a page, and log time without leaving the card.
Kraken
Documents, memos, sharing, and research that stay beside the work.
- Documents, folders and memos — Write pages, group them, draw a flow, and capture a short note on a date.
- Share, search and research — Choose who can open a page, find it later, and save a research answer as a document.
Shelly
AI teammates: skills, tools, runs, and a person approving every write.
- Crews, skills and memory — Build a snail, attach the skills and tools it may use, and store the facts it should remember.
- Run work and approve it — Chat, send a mission, schedule a routine, and approve or reject anything that would write.
Reference
Messages and reference codes when something does not complete.
- Error codes — What the message means, and the reference code to send if you need a hand.
