ACCOUNT

Request an organization account or create the first administrator

Public applicants use /request-account, choose login details, and verify the email address. Pending applicants can use /resend-verification to replace an expired or missing verification email. On a completely empty private installation, /setup creates the permanent God Admin and closes after the first user exists.

L!ETTERED! SIGNUP

S!CRIBED! PUBLISHING

Create the S!CRIBED! publication and review two drafts

API AUTHORIZATION

Create organization API and OAuth credentials

Open Organization → API integrations. IPinfo requires an access token and selected product; Twilio requires the Account SID plus a dedicated API Key SID and secret, or the Auth Token fallback. Cloudflare uses a zone-restricted token. Google and Microsoft contact sync use organization-owned OAuth web applications with the exact redirect URLs shown on screen.

CUSTOM DOMAIN

Verify SMTP, DKIM, SPF, and DMARC

Open the domain page for the connected sending account. BRANDED can generate and apply a managed DKIM signature. Publish the SPF mechanisms supplied by the actual SMTP provider, start DMARC in monitoring mode, and use a scoped Cloudflare token only when automatic DNS publishing is desired.

15
CONTACT DIRECTORY

Import, discover, synchronize, and export contacts

Import CSV addresses, extract correspondents from synchronized mail, authorize and synchronize Google People or Microsoft Graph contacts with the provider contact-read permission, and download the complete organization contact CSV. Never remove a suppression without documented renewed permission.

16
TRACKING PIXELS

Trace observations to the original message

Open Evidence → Tracking Pixel Statistics. Review the token’s ordinary email or campaign origin, recipient, timestamps, IP, user agent, referrer, and event metadata. Treat an image request as a technical observation—not proof of human reading.

17
S!CRIBED! DISTRIBUTION

Announce a published article through L!ETTERED!

From a published S!CRIBED! article, build a themed L!ETTERED! campaign and choose active contacts, confirmed subscribers, pasted addresses, and uploaded CSV lists. Duplicates and suppressions are handled before queueing, and the normal tracking and unsubscribe choices remain visible.

L!INKED!

Publish the company and employee biography directory

Open L!INKED!, choose a page owner and one of five premium templates, then add biography blocks, social destinations, tracked links, media, allowed embeds, contact details, comments, and reviews. Publish only after the preview reflects the intended public identity.

T!RACKED! DOMAIN + REPORTING

Publish the organization’s short-link hostname

Company Admin or God Admin opens T!RACKED! → Setup, publishes joey.camp or another company-controlled hostname to the BRANDED service, verifies it, and creates the first redirect or pixel. Choose the short-code format, notification recipients, and every-observation, hourly, daily, or weekly email/PDF schedule.

SPECIALIZED FORENSICS

Use focused evidence tools without mixing their records

EML Forensics Preserve exported email files, MIME attachments, headers, hashes, and downloadable BRANDED PDF, HTML, and JSON reports.
IP and carrier intelligence Preview clickable IP-address or phone-number intelligence and manually preserve BRANDED or TEXTED forensic reports.
Support screenshots Attach verified images to support messages; they remain with the chat and appear in generated PDFs.
SIGNATURE IMPORT

Install or import a complete signature

Open Settings, locate Signature import, then install the bundled B!RANDED + T!EXTED identity or upload an HTML, HTM, or TXT signature file. Existing signature versions remain preserved.

C!HATTED! RULES + PRIVACY

Private professional conversations with explicit identity controls

C!HATTED! profiles are private by default and there is no complete public directory. Exact username search reveals only the information each person authorizes. External participants remain visibly labeled, one-time invitations expire or become invalid after use, and senders may remove their own messages at any time while immutable forensic records preserve the original content and deletion event.

Employees see conversations in which they participate. Company senior administrators may review employee-related conversations, diagnostics, and reports under the existing oversight model. Verification marks classify identity and do not endorse a person’s statements; company flair is administered by the applicable company.
