- Guide: Use Align, connect your tools, and understand the platform

  - **Introduction**
  - [Getting Started](/guide/getting-started): Choose a workspace, learn the five Align apps, and complete your first decision-to-delivery workflow.
  - [Product suite](/guide/product): The current Align product map: Home, Rooms, Pages, Chat, Plans, the browser extension, and the services shared by every app.
  - [Plans](/guide/plans): Work items, projects, the Inbox, team Standup, two-way Jira/Linear sync, GitHub moving tickets, workflows, planning layers, and reports.
  - [Collaboration](/guide/collaboration): Rooms, decisions, Pages, Chat, Quick Decide, Pick-a-time polls, recaps, and how they connect to Plans.
  - [Browser extension](/guide/extension): Align for Meet, Teams, Zoom, Gmail, Slack, and selected text—meeting prep, live notes, tasks after the call, installation, connection, and privacy.
  - [Integrations](/guide/integrations): Connect calendars, Slack, GitHub, Linear, Jira, Notion, Figma, ICS, and webhooks; understand sync, write-back, and plan limits.
  - [AI & automation](/guide/ai-and-automation): Ask Align, Universal Search, MCP, controlled actions, and the private-beta Intelligence and Autopilot surfaces.
  - [Companion & Align for Mac](/guide/companion): The private-beta Companion that lives in your Mac's notch, picks what needs you from your tools, keeps follow-ups both ways, moves tickets after you push code, and hands you the next step as one tap.
