## Set up with your agent

[Read the agent setup guide](/docs/ai/set-up-your-agent)

Copy this prompt into your coding agent:

```text
Bird connects customer communications, data and automation. Help me build with Bird using my coding agent.
1. Read https://bird.com/docs/ai/set-up-your-agent.md and follow its setup workflow for this client. Use an existing connected Bird MCP server or signed-in CLI when available.
2. Read the product guide for the task I want to complete and inspect my existing integration. Identify the workspace, available operations and required setup.
3. Help me complete a first example for the product and destination I choose. Follow the operation through to its actual result, explain any uncertainty, and help me choose the next step.

Use this Bird page as the starting context: https://bird.com/verify-api/getting-started
Read its Markdown alternative and linked guides. Keep the first example relevant to this page and the customer outcome I choose. Preserve the supplied campaign context when following Bird signup or sales links.

## From sign-up to first verified user in an afternoon.

Follow these three steps and you'll have OTP verification running across SMS, voice, and email.

- **01** Sign up for Bird. Create your account and get an API key straight away. Passcodes draw on your organization's prepaid balance, so top it up before the first one goes out.
- **02** Verify your first customer. Send a one-time passcode and check the result with two API calls. Works over SMS, voice, WhatsApp, or email with no code change. [Read the quickstart →](/docs/get-started/verify-your-first-customer)
- **03** Configure your senders. Choose which channels to use, set fallback order, and pick each channel's sender identity or your own email domain. Most configurations take effect immediately. [Senders guide →](/docs/guides/verify/senders)

## Fraud-resistant verification, any channel.

One API for OTP, 2FA, and passwordless login across SMS, voice, WhatsApp, and email. Sign up and verify your first user in under five minutes.
