2 Getting Started
On this page
2.1 Account Creation & Email-Based Login#
To get started, navigate to Ariax.bio and click "Start Designing". If you don't have an account yet, click the "Create one here" link at the bottom of the login form. Enter your email address and click "Send Verification Code"—this will send you a One-Time Password (OTP) to verify your email and create your account.
For future logins, you have two options:
- OTP Login: Continue using the verification code method—just enter your email and click "Send Code"
- Password Login: After your first login, you can set up a password in Settings, then use either your password or OTP to sign in
Both methods are equally secure and can be used interchangeably once you've added a password to your account.
2.2 Google OAuth Login#
Alternatively, click Continue with Google to authenticate with a Google account. On first use, we'll create your account automatically; future visits will log you in instantly.
2.3 First Look at the UI#
Once logged in, you'll land on the Dashboard. Here you can:
- View your active and completed projects in separate tables
- Check summary stats at the top of the page
- Create a new project via the New Project button (choose a format and a compatible engine, including BindCraft2)
- Control the activity of your projects (e.g., pause, restart, abort, or delete)
- Navigate between sections using the sidebar menu
These features are described in more detail in the next section: 3. Dashboard Overview.
Your First Campaign#
Choose a binder format from the design navigation, then select a compatible engine that fits your scientific goal. Compare methods on the Workflows page, supply the inputs described in the engine's setup guide, and review the scientific settings and GPU preferences before launching. To prepare and run a campaign with your coding agent, see Agent API & CLI.
