Getting Started
Pidgr transforms passive internal announcements into structured, measurable campaigns — with acknowledgment tracking, automatic reminders, and escalation. This guide walks you through initial setup and launching your first campaign.
Prerequisites
Section titled “Prerequisites”- A Pidgr organization (contact us for early access)
- Access to the Pidgr admin dashboard
Step 1: Sign In
Section titled “Step 1: Sign In”Pidgr is fully passwordless. Sign in at auth.pidgr.com:
- Enter your email address
- Authenticate with a passkey (your device’s fingerprint or face recognition), or receive a one-time code by email
- If this is your first sign-in, you’ll be guided through passkey registration so future sign-ins are one tap
Step 2: Create Your Organization
Section titled “Step 2: Create Your Organization”If you’re the first user from your company:
- Complete the onboarding stepper (organization name, industry, company size)
- Your organization is created with default roles
- You’re assigned the admin role automatically
Step 3: Invite Your Team
Section titled “Step 3: Invite Your Team”There are two ways to bring people in:
Email invitations — invite specific people, one at a time or in bulk:
- Go to Members in the admin dashboard
- Click Invite User and enter their email
- Assign an appropriate role
- They’ll receive an email with sign-in instructions
Invite links — create a shareable link for self-service joining:
- Go to Members → Invite Links
- Create a link with a role, an optional expiry, and an optional maximum number of uses
- Share the link (or its QR code) — anyone who redeems it joins your organization with the assigned role
- Revoke the link at any time to stop further redemptions
Step 4: Create a Template
Section titled “Step 4: Create a Template”Templates define the content of your campaign messages.
- Go to Templates → Create Template
- Write your message content in Markdown
- Use template variables like
{{name}}for personalization - Optionally add translations so recipients see the message in their preferred language
- Save — templates are versioned, and campaigns pin the version they were created with
Step 5: Launch Your First Campaign
Section titled “Step 5: Launch Your First Campaign”- Go to Campaigns → Create Campaign
- Fill in the campaign details:
- Name: A descriptive name for internal tracking
- Title: The user-facing message title
- Template: Select the template you created
- Audience: Choose groups, teams, or individual members to target
- Click Start Campaign
- Monitor delivery progress in the campaign detail view
What Happens Next
Section titled “What Happens Next”When a campaign starts, Pidgr’s workflow engine:
- Delivers the message to all audience members through the Pidgr mobile and desktop apps
- Waits for acknowledgments within the configured deadline
- Sends reminders to users who haven’t acknowledged — optionally fanned out through notification channels like Email, Slack, Telegram, or SMS
- Escalates unacknowledged deliveries to managers, groups, or role holders if the workflow includes an escalation step
- Marks unresponsive deliveries as missed after the deadline
- Calls webhooks if configured, with delivery outcome data
Every step is recorded, so you always know who saw what — and who still needs a nudge.
