Getting Started

Getting Started with AssistHive

Learn how tenants, households, users, and work areas fit together before you start creating records.

Updated Apr 14, 2026 Back to directory

AssistHive is organized around a tenant, one or more households, the people inside those households, and the work records your team manages every day.

Before you begin: decide who will act as tenant administrator, which households need to be created first, and which team members need access.

Core concepts

  • Tenant: your organization account, subscription, user list, notification settings, and audit visibility.
  • Household: an operational workspace for a principal, family, or residence.
  • Household members: people connected to a household, such as principals, family members, or staff.
  • Tenant users: the people who log in and operate the system.
  • Records: documents, tasks, appointments, and flights.
  • Reminders: time-based follow-up prompts attached to records.

Recommended setup order

  1. Create or verify the tenant administrator account.
  2. Add the first households.
  3. Add household members for the people you manage most often.
  4. Add tenant users and assign household access.
  5. Start creating documents, tasks, appointments, and flights.
  6. Enable reminders where follow-up matters.

Where to find major areas

  • Dashboard: summary of upcoming and recent activity.
  • Documents: passports, visas, certificates, policies, and uploaded versions.
  • Flights: reservations, passenger manifests, flight segments, ticket files, and checklists.
  • Appointments: scheduled events for households or household members.
  • Tasks: assignments with due dates, status, and watchers.
  • Households: household records, linked members, owners, managers, and permissions.
  • Tenant: plan details, user management, notification settings, and audit log.

Visibility and privacy

Most records can be linked to a household so the correct people can see and manage them. Some records also support an Only for me flag for private work items. If a user cannot see a record, check household access, per-app permissions, and whether the item was created as personal-only.
