TL;DR: After you sign up, Boundless walks you through two quick steps, completing your profile and choosing your role. It takes about two minutes, and finishing your profile earns you Credits.

What you’ll learn

  • What each onboarding step asks for
  • What the three roles mean
  • How onboarding connects to Credits and reputation

Step 1: Complete your profile

Add the basics that other people on the platform will see:
  • First and last name (required)
  • Location (required)
  • Bio (optional), a short line about what you do
  • Profile photo (optional), you can upload and crop an image
A complete profile, name, bio, and at least one skill, also earns you +2 Credits. See Earn and spend Credits.

Step 2: Choose your role

Tell Boundless how you mainly plan to use the platform, then add your skills and goals. Your choice tailors what you see first, but it doesn’t lock you in, you can do everything from one account.
If you leave partway through, Boundless remembers where you stopped and resumes onboarding next time you sign in.
