Whether you are a product owner looking for accessibility insights or a developer looking to embed accessibility into your practice, this page will help you get started with Equalify's platform, covering how to create an account and access the platform.
## Access & Onboarding
### Email invite
Once added by an Admin, you will receive an email from noreply@equalify.uic.edu with the subject "You are invited to join Equalify".
From the email invite, select "Accept Invite" to be redirected to the Equalify sign-in page.

### Logging in
Depending on how your organization manages Equalify you can sign in using Single Sign-On (SSO) or Create a New Account, via the Sign Up for Equalify form.
#### Using SSO to Log In
If your organization has set up SSO for Equalify, select "Sign in with SSO", and log in using your existing credentials.
```important
⚠️Important: You must have previously received an invitation to join Equalify for SSO to work.
```

#### Creating a new account without SSO
If your organization does not have SSO set up for Equalify, you will be asked to create a password, which you will then use (along with your email) to log in.
**From the email:** Select “Create an Account” and fill in your details. You must use the same email address that the invite was sent to.

💡Tip: Unsure if SSO is active for your organization? Ask your Equalify administrator for help.
