1. Create an account
Go to orka.sh/signup and create your account. Once you’re in, you’re ready to go.
2. Start the quickstart wizard
Click Quickstart from the overview page or the sidebar. You’ll create a datastore, upload documents, and create an agent.
3. Create a datastore
Give your datastore a name and an optional description. A datastore is a collection of documents that your agent can search over.
4. Upload documents
Drag and drop your PDFs into the upload area, or click to browse. Orka chunks and indexes them automatically. Wait for processing to finish before continuing — you’ll see real-time status updates for each file.
5. Create an agent
Give your agent a name and an optional description. It’s automatically connected to the datastore you just created.
6. Try it out
Once the wizard is done, you can chat with your agent or try the API:
- Start chatting — ask a question and get an answer grounded in your documents, right in the browser.
- Try the API — go to the Playground, generate an API key, and send a request:
curl -X POST https://orka.sh/api/v1/agents/{agent_id}/chat \
-H "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"message": "Which contracts are high risk?"
}'
The response includes the agent’s answer and source citations. Pass the returned conversation_id in follow-up requests to continue the conversation.
