Hardware Setup Guide

defines the minimum workstation, power, and call-readiness floor before the practice leans on the product for real client delivery.

Recommended baseline

Laptop or desktop, stable internet, headset, secondary power plan

Keep this baseline explicit so the first deadline or review call is not hanging on a fragile desk setup.

Operational risk if skipped

Calls, uploads, or recurring delivery work become brittle

Keep this baseline explicit so the first deadline or review call is not hanging on a fragile desk setup.

Checklist

Stabilize the physical working environment

The alpha stack already supports a viable solo-practice workstation, but the view should still make the minimum hardware floor explicit.

Choose the primary work device

A dependable laptop or desktop should be the first anchor before the app expands into real filing, document, and client flows.

Protect against brownouts or power loss

Keep a backup power plan or charging routine so deadlines do not hinge on perfect electrical conditions.

Prepare a clean call and review setup

A stable webcam, headset, and quiet review surface matter once client onboarding and approvals become routine.

Guidance

Why the hardware lane matters early

Lock the device, power, audio, and connectivity basics before promising recurring delivery windows.

Optimize for dependability first

The first practice workstation does not need to look premium, but it should stay dependable across writing, calls, uploads, and spreadsheet review.

Treat backup power like risk control

A missed deadline caused by a dead battery feels like an operations failure, not just a device problem.
