Get started: meiti in four steps
The fastest way from "curious" to "running": get the app, create an API key for your systems, request MCP access if you want it — and have everything unlocked in a compliance call that carriers and Meta require paperwork for.
The four steps
- Create your account and get the app — on the web under "Start for free" (/go) with your mobile number or e-mail address, or straight in the app from the App Store or Google Play. The app guides you through your first inbox.
- Create an API key: "Settings" → "Setup & operations" → "Connected systems" → "API access" → "Create key". One key per system (shop, CRM, Zapier …). It's shown only once.
- Optional: request MCP access — set up inboxes and assistants straight from Claude, Codex or any other MCP client. We enable it for your organisation; then you'll find it under "Connected systems" → "MCP server access".
- Book a compliance call — in one appointment we collect everything needed for verification, numbers and senders.
API or MCP?
- API: your software sends messages, creates contacts and appointments and reads conversations — permanently, with one key per system.
- MCP: an AI like Claude sets meiti up for you — inboxes, assistants, skills, tests. Ideal for building, not for running your software.
The compliance call
Own numbers, caller IDs, WhatsApp and named senders require paperwork — from carriers, from Meta and from regulation. In the compliance call we collect everything in one appointment and submit it for you. It's the fastest way to get verified and have numbers and senders unlocked.
What we unlock
Depending on what you need.
- Your own local or mobile number — ported too
- Clearance as caller ID — for the 100% EU path
- WhatsApp Business with Meta verification
- SMS sender and RCS with name and logo
What to have ready
We'll tell you beforehand exactly what your setup needs.
- Company details: name, legal form, business address
- A proof, e.g. trade registration or commercial register extract
- Logo and brand name if you want RCS
- Existing numbers if we should port them
A local number needs a business address in that area — the carrier checks it. We sort this out with you on the call.
