# Create a space

> A space is born empty. It only ever knows what its members share.

If your team, your company, or your group doesn't have a space
yet, make one — creating a space is open to everyone, takes a
minute, and costs nothing.

## Name it, and it exists

From the **Spaces** tab, choose **Create a space**. There's one
thing to decide: what it's called.

No setup wizard, no configuration to get right before you start.
A space begins as an empty room with your name on the lease —
and two things are true about every new one:

* **It starts empty.** Nothing you've captured moves into it.
  A space only ever contains what members deliberately
  [share into it](/spaces/share-a-capture) — that stays true on
  day one and every day after.
* **You're the admin.** Creating a space makes you its
  administrator: you manage
  [members and settings](/spaces/settings-and-members), and you
  can make other members admins alongside you.

## Bring your team

A space becomes real when the second person joins, so inviting
is the next screen, not a settings hunt:

</Frame>

Three ways in, for three situations: **copy the invite link** and
paste it wherever your team already talks, **share it** straight
from your phone, or **add people by email** — an email invite
lands [waiting in their app](/spaces/join-a-space), no link
required. In a hurry? Skip it — inviting is always available
later from the space's members screen.

## First moves

An empty space is a room waiting for a conversation. In whatever
order suits you:

* **Shape the rooms.** [Channels](/spaces/channels) give the
  space its structure — by deal, by client, by topic, however
  your group actually talks.
* **Share the first capture.** The best empty-space cure is a
  real conversation: share a capture worth discussing, and the
  space starts life with something to say.

## What the space knows

As members share captures and the conversation accumulates, the
space develops something none of its members has alone: a
collective memory. That's what the
[space agent](/spaces/space-agent) draws on when anyone asks it a
question — not your Home, not anyone's private captures, only
what the space was given. A space is exactly as smart as what
its members choose to share.
