Create an account
Your work email is the account. The same address signs you in whether the firm already has a workspace or you are creating the first one.
Before you start
Sign up at chat.haqq.ai. The free plan is available forever and needs no credit card, so you can explore the dashboard and try the AI before anyone has to approve a purchase. One sign-in opens both HAQQ Legal AI and HAQQ eFirm, and changes made in one are reflected immediately in the other.
Create the account
- Go to chat.haqq.ai and enter your work email address on the sign-in screen.
- A six-digit one-time code is emailed to that address. Enter it to confirm the address is yours.
- On a first sign-in the account is created and a workspace is provisioned automatically, so there is nothing to set up before you can start working.
- The Legal AI Twin is the assistant behind the chat product. One sign-in opens it and eFirm practice management, and the two share the same account.
- Your work email is the account. The same address is used whether the firm already has a workspace or you are creating the first one.
- Continue sends a one-time code to that address. A password option is offered underneath for firms that prefer one.
- Firms already running Google Workspace or Microsoft 365 sign in with those accounts instead.
Ways to sign in
| Method | Where it works | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Email plus a six-digit one-time code | Web, iOS, Android | The default. The code is sent to the address you entered. |
| Password | Web, iOS, Android | Offered underneath the code option for firms that prefer one. Code-only users can set a password from inside the app. |
| eFirm, the AI chat web app, iOS, Android | For firms already running Google Workspace. | |
| Microsoft | eFirm, the AI chat web app, iOS, Android | For firms already running Microsoft 365. |
| Sign in with Apple | iOS | iOS only. |
Your first workspace
A workspace is your firm's private environment inside HAQQ, and every new workspace is created automatically on first use. Firm details are filled in afterwards, from eFirm settings, and they matter because invoices, dates and tax all inherit from them.
| Setting | Where to configure | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Firm name | eFirm > Settings > Edit Workspace | The legal entity name that appears on invoices and official documents. |
| Default currency | eFirm > Settings > Edit Workspace | Base currency for all financial transactions, for example USD or AED. |
| Default tax rate | eFirm > Settings > Edit Workspace | A percentage. Can be overridden per transaction. |
| Timezone | eFirm > Settings > Edit Workspace | Controls every date and time display across the platform. |
| Billing profile | eFirm > Settings > Financial > Billing Profile | Company name, address and contact used on invoices. |
New workspaces are also prompted to set up a chart of accounts, and onboarding progress is remembered per person and per product, so a colleague who joins later gets their own run through it rather than inheriting yours.
Enterprise sign-on
Google and Microsoft sign-in above cover firms on Google Workspace or Microsoft 365. SSO in the enterprise sense — your own identity provider, enforced centrally — is offered on enterprise deployments but has no documented setup path.
What is next
- Invite users — bring the rest of the firm in and give each role what it needs.
- Workspace — what a workspace holds and how switching between them works.
- Your account — the settings you control yourself, including passwords and active sessions.
