I'm New to Raken and Don't Have an Account

Start exploring Raken with a free trial — no credit card required:

I'm Joining My Company's Existing Raken Account

Your Account Admin will send you an email invitation with a link to create your password. Once set up, log in at app.rakenapp.com or through the mobile app. If you haven't received your invitation, check your spam folder or ask your Account Admin to resend it.

I've Been Invited to Collaborate on a Project

You'll receive an email with login instructions. Follow the link to set up your access and join the project. If you haven't received it, contact your partner or supervisor to have it resent.

Click the link in your invitation email to join an existing account.

Step 2: Log In

Troubleshooting & FAQ

I was invited but can't find the invitation email — what do I do?

Check your spam folder first. If you still can't find it, ask your Account Admin to resend the invitation from Directory > Employees, or contact us at support@rakenapp.com. If you're a project collaborator rather than a company employee, contact whoever invited you (your partner or supervisor at the inviting company) to have it resent instead.

I forgot my password — how do I reset it?

On the login screen, click or tap Forgot Password, enter your email, and follow the link in the reset email.

How long does the free trial last?

Contact our sales team for details — email hello@rakenapp.com or call 858-290-4477.

Can I create my own account if my company already uses Raken?

No. You need to be invited by your Account Admin. Creating a new account would be a separate, unconnected company account.

What plans does Raken offer?

Raken is available on Basic and Performance plans, with a free trial for new accounts. See Purchasing Raken for more information.


Technical Specifications

  • Compatibility: iOS 15+, Android 10+, and all major web browsers

  • Plan Required: Free trial available; Basic and Performance plans for full access


Considerations

  • If you're joining an existing account, your Account Admin must invite you — you cannot add yourself.

  • Your login email must be unique across all Raken accounts.

  • A free trial is available for new accounts, no credit card required.

  • Collaborators do not need a paid Raken account — they access only the projects they've been invited to.
