Demo account features

Uku provides a free demo account with pre-loaded clients and tasks so you can explore features before committing. All demo data is separate from your real workspace and is removed when you end the demo.

Who can do this

  • Any new user (demo starts automatically after sign-up)

  • Existing Uku users who want to re-enter the demo from their Profile settings

What the demo includes

The demo account comes pre-loaded with sample clients and tasks. Task descriptions include guided instructions on:

  • Adding tasks and company accounts

  • Adding clients

  • Creating recurring tasks

  • Building work plans for customers

You can also add your own clients and tasks during the demo. You can explore almost all of Uku's features. For more guidance, visit the Uku help center.

All tasks, clients, and changes created during the demo exist only in the demo environment and are removed when you start working with Uku. There is no way to transfer demo data to your live account.

Ending the demo

  1. When you are ready to begin real work, click the End demo button in the main navigation.

  2. Your personal Uku dashboard opens, where you can start adding clients, tasks, and team members.

Re-entering the demo as an existing user

  1. Open Profile from the main menu.

  2. Select Start demo from the profile page.

All data you previously added to your real account will remain intact.

When starting the demo from an existing account, your previously created real tasks also appear on the dashboard. To see only demo tasks, add a filter: click the filter icon, then click +, select the Account filter, and choose Demo. This prevents accidentally entering data on real client tasks.

Troubleshooting

  • Real tasks appear mixed with demo tasks: Apply the Account filter and select Demo to isolate demo-only tasks on your dashboard.

  • Time tracked on real tasks during demo: Time entries and contract data created for real clients during the demo will carry over to your live account. Use the account filter to avoid this.

  • Cannot find the End demo button: Look for it in the main navigation area. If it is not visible, you may have already ended the demo.

  • Want to transfer demo data to live account: This is not supported. Demo data is automatically removed when you end the demo.
