Creating an Account
LOP accounts are organized around organizations — a shared workspace for your team. When you sign up, you automatically create an organization and become its administrator. Everyone on your team joins the same organization and shares access to plans, item libraries, and templates.
How to Sign Up
Step 1 — Go to the Signup Page
Navigate to app.lop.tools/signup (opens in a new tab) in your browser.
If your company already has a LOP organization, ask your administrator to invite you instead of signing up yourself — this ensures you join the correct organization rather than creating a separate one.

Step 2 — Enter Your Details
Fill in the signup form:
- Organization name — the name of your company or team (e.g., "Meridian Freight Co." or "Warehouse Team — Istanbul"). This is visible to all members of your organization.
- Full name — your name as you want it to appear in the platform.
- Email address — use your work email. This will be your login username.
- Password — minimum 8 characters. Choose something strong.

Your organization name is what your team sees when they log in. You can change it later from Settings → Organization. Choose something that clearly identifies your team or company.
Step 3 — Create Your Account
Click Create Account. LOP will:
- Create your user account
- Create your organization with you as the administrator
- Assign your organization the Free plan automatically
- Log you in and take you to the LOP dashboard
No email verification step is required — you're ready to use LOP immediately.

What Happens After Signup
Your Role
You are automatically assigned the Admin role for your organization. As admin, you can:
- Invite team members and manage their access
- View and manage all plans created by your team
- Manage billing and subscription settings
- Configure organization-wide settings
Your Free Plan
Every new organization starts on the Free plan, which includes a limited number of plans and items per month. You can upgrade to a paid plan at any time from Settings → Billing or from the pricing page.
The Free plan is a great way to evaluate LOP with real data before committing to a subscription. There are no time limits — only usage limits.
Your Organization Workspace
Your organization has a shared:
- Item Library — items added to the library are available to all team members
- Container Library — custom container definitions are shared across the team
- Templates — saved plan configurations are accessible to everyone
- Plans — all plans are visible to all members of the organization by default
Inviting Team Members
Once you're logged in, you can invite colleagues:
- Go to Settings in the left sidebar
- Click the Team tab
- Click Invite Member
- Enter their email address and select a role (Admin or Member)
- Click Send Invite
They will receive an email with a link to set their password and join your organization.
Invited users join your organization — they do not create a new one. Make sure to invite your teammates rather than having them sign up independently, which would create separate organizations.
Logging In
After your account is created, log in at app.lop.tools/login (opens in a new tab) with your email address and password.
If you forget your password, click Forgot password? on the login page. A reset link will be sent to your email.
