Start here

Part 1 of the Ripple Learn Centre gives every newcomer the shared language they need before diving into deeper workflows. Start with the “What is Ripple” primer, then walk the flipped-meeting model, onboarding runbook, and the two core collaboration surfaces: Channels and Jams.

Audience

  • Primary roles: founders, chiefs of staff, operations leads, team managers launching Ripple.
  • Secondary roles: ICs asked to pilot async workflows, enablement partners, EA/Chief of Staff support.
  • Notes: This section assumes you already have workspace access; if not, follow the invite flow in Getting started.

Core concepts

  1. What is Ripple — vision, operating principles, and the value promise.
  2. The Flipped Meeting Model — how Ripple restructures time before, during, and after meetings.
  3. Getting started — workspace creation, invites, calendar sync, and personalization in under 10 minutes.
  4. Channels & chat — organizing collaboration into themed workstreams.
  5. Jams — async-first meetings with AI summaries, sentiment, and recurring rituals.
  6. Ripple Onboarding Guide — New Zealand Edition 2025 — the curated country guide for NZ teams.
Note

Version 25.docx is mirrored in the Ripple Onboarding Guide — New Zealand Edition 2025. Treat that page as the single source of truth for UI copy, screenshots, and numbered sections (1–6) referenced throughout Start Here.

Suggested path

  1. Read What is Ripple to anchor the mindset shift.
  2. Study The Flipped Meeting Model and adopt the “no agenda, no meeting” rule.
  3. Follow the Getting started checklist to spin up your workspace.
  4. Explore the Ripple Onboarding Guide — New Zealand Edition 2025 to master the layout, quick-create workflows, and in-context tools.
  5. Stand up your first Channel and flip a live recurring meeting into a Jam.
