Activating your OTIS instance

Step-by-step guide to activating your OTIS instance using your access token.

What you need

Your OTIS access token, issued by Omihon. It begins with otis_ and is typically 80-100 characters long. If you do not have a token, visit the pricing page to select a plan.

Step 1: Go to the activation page

Navigate to app.otisintelligence.co.uk/activate. This is where all new instances begin.

Step 2: Enter your token

Paste your token into the text field and click Verify Token. OTIS will validate the token against Omihon Central and confirm your organisation name and plan details.

Step 3: Create your admin account

Enter your full name, email address, and a password of at least 8 characters. This becomes the administrator account for your OTIS instance. You can add more users after setup.

Step 4: Save your encryption key

OTIS generates a 256-bit AES-GCM encryption key in your browser. This key encrypts all your data. Click Download Encryption Key and save the file in a password manager or secure location. You must download the key before you can continue. OTIS Intelligence does not hold a copy of this key. If you lose it, your data cannot be recovered.

Step 5: Connect your storage

Choose where your encrypted data will be stored: Google Drive, Microsoft OneDrive, or Amazon S3/MinIO. This step is required. OTIS does not store your data on its own servers.

Activation complete

After connecting your storage, you will be redirected to the login page. Sign in with the email and password you created in Step 3. Your OTIS instance is now active.
