Accessing a room
The link doesn't work — what to do
Clicking the link and something's wrong — a blank page, an error, "access denied." Here's how to diagnose. First: try again Tech glitches happen. Close the tab, reopen the email, and click the link again. About half of "broken link" issues resolve with a fresh try. Common error messages and what they mean "Link expired" The invitation link from the email has a 48-hour expiry. If it's been longer, request a fresh one: Reply to the sender's email, asking them to re-send Or enterSome readersOpening your Katalyz link

Using a room
Updating task status
Many Katalyz rooms contain a task list — a shared checklist both you and the sender work through together. Ticking off tasks keeps the deal moving without back-and-forth emails. What tasks look like Each task has: A title (what needs to happen) An assignee (who owns it — you, the sender, or someone else) An optional due date An optional **descriptioFew readersNavigating a room
A Katalyz room is a website. Navigate it like you'd navigate any other site — but with a few helpful touches. Your first visit — the guided tour The first time you open a room, a short tour highlights the controls you'll use most. Each step spotlights one button with a short card, a N / total counter and Next (the last step says Got it). Click anywhere outside the card to skip it.

You can leave comments on any section of a Katalyz room — it's the fastest way to ask questions, flag concerns, or confirm decisions without writing an email. Comments attach to the section, not the widget. You can't drop a comment on a specific widget (text, pricing, document, etc.) — you link it to the section that contains those widgets. How to comment Open the Comments panel Click the Comments button in the top bar of the room (between the bell and Share). TheFew readersDownloading documents
You can download any document embedded in a Katalyz room — PDFs, decks, spreadsheets, anything the sender has shared. How to download From a document widget Most documents are shown in a preview (you can read them inline without downloading). To save a local copy, use the Download button on the preview. Click it, and the file downloads to your computer.Few readers
Taking action
Booking a meeting
There are two ways to book time with the seller's team from a room: a Scheduler block embedded in the page, or the booking link on a person's contact card. Which one you see depends on what the sender put in the room. The Meeting block you may also find in a room is different: it shows an existing meeting (past or upcoming) with its recording, AI summary and transcript. It isn't a scheduling tool. Option 1 — the Scheduler block If the sender added a Scheduler, you'llFew readersInviting a colleague to the room
Need to loop in your IT team, procurement, legal, or exec sponsor? You can invite colleagues directly — no need to ask the sender to do it for you. Why invite colleagues yourself In most deals, you're not the only decision-maker. Your: IT / Security team needs to review the solution Procurement handles contract negotiations Legal reviews the MSA Exec sponsor gives final approval Champion's champion — whoever else is invested Katalyz lets you invite them directFew readersSigning a document
Some Katalyz rooms embed documents that need your signature — proposals, contracts, NDAs, order forms. Here's how to sign. Find the signature widget A signature widget appears as a card inside a section of the room — envelope title, the documents, how many signers have signed, the deadline — with a Sign button (Approve, if you were added as an approver rather than a signer).
