Up and running in 5 minutes
From sign-up to your first AI-powered task on the canvas. You'll need one of these AI CLI subscriptions — Denker uses your own subscription for AI, which is much cheaper than platform pricing.
Step 1
Create your workspace
Sign up at space.denker.ai. You'll land on your canvas with a welcome guide, an intro video, and your agent team already set up.
Step 2
Connect the Companion
The Companion connects your AI CLI (Claude Code, Codex, or OpenCode) on your machine to your Denker workspace. A setup wizard guides you — copy the install command and paste it into your terminal.
Once installed, it runs in the background and starts on login. A green dot appears when connected.
Step 3
Ask Denker your first question
Type a task in the input bar — "Research the latest trends in AI agents". Your agent picks it up and frames appear on the canvas as it works.
Common questions
Which AI CLIs are supported?
Denker provides the workspace — your AI CLI provides the intelligence. We currently support Claude Code, Codex (OpenAI), and OpenCode. Pick the best model for each agent, or mix and match. Your own subscription covers token costs — much cheaper than paying per-token.

What is the Companion?
A lightweight local process that bridges your AI CLI to Denker. When you send a prompt, it spawns a session and streams results to your canvas in real time. It auto-detects which CLIs you have installed.
