This section covers everything you need to go from “what is this?” to “oh wow, it just ordered me lunch.”
What is Vellum?The big picture. What it is, what it isn't, why it exists.

Your First SkillTeaching your assistant a new trick. The beginning of a beautiful friendship.
No prior AI experience needed. No terminal wizardry required. Just sign up, open your assistant in the browser, and start talking.
