# Mav.next Quickstart: Go Live With Your First Agent

> A step-by-step guide to getting started in Mav.next — tour the workspace, configure your agent, connect a lead source, and send your first test conversation.

This guide walks you through your first day in Mav.next — from logging in to watching your first lead get worked.

## Tour the workspace

After logging in, you'll find these areas in the left navigation:

<CardGroup cols={2}>
  <Card title="Agents" icon="robot" href="/mav-next/agents-overview">
    Your AI workers and their settings.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Contacts" icon="address-book" href="/mav-next/contacts-overview">
    Everyone Mav is working, with full conversation history.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Lead Sources" icon="share-nodes" href="/mav-next/marketing-sources">
    Where your leads come from and which agent works them.
  </Card>

  <Card title="Settings" icon="gear" href="/mav-next/account-and-transfer-hours">
    Account, users, transfer hours, and lead filters.
  </Card>
</CardGroup>

## Get your first lead flowing

<Steps>
  <Step title="Review your agent">
    Open **Agents** and select the agent set up for your account (for example, Auto Insurance). Check its [persona and instructions](/mav-next/configuring-an-agent) so it sounds like your brand.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Send a test conversation">
    Use [**Send a test**](/mav-next/testing-an-agent) to text yourself — or trigger a test call — and experience the agent exactly as a lead would. Iterate on the persona until it feels right.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Connect a lead source">
    Set up a [marketing source](/mav-next/marketing-sources) so your vendor or web form can deliver leads straight to the agent, or [import a CSV](/mav-next/importing-contacts) to load a batch yourself.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set your availability">
    Configure [transfer hours](/mav-next/account-and-transfer-hours) so live calls are only attempted when your reps can actually take them.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Watch it work">
    As leads arrive, open **Contacts** to follow each [conversation](/mav-next/contacts-overview) in real time and review outcomes.
  </Step>
</Steps>
