Here's a loom of me explaining the app.
- Clone the project.
git clone https://github.com/FoloUp/FoloUp.git
- Copy the existing environment template file
cp .env.example .env
Clerk Setup (Clerk)
We use Clerk for authentication. Set up Clerk environment variables in the .env
file. Free plan should be more than enough.
- Navigate to Clerk and create an application following the setup guide.

-
Your
.env
(NOT.env.local
) file should have theNEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY
andCLERK_SECRET_KEY
variables populated with no inverted commas -
Enable organizations in your Clerk application by navigating to the Organization Settings page.

- Make sure you create an organization and invite your email to it.
Database Setup (Supabase)
Supabase is used for storing the data. It's really simple to set up and the free plan should suffice.
- Create a project (Note down your project's password)
- Got to SQL Editor and copy the SQL code from
supabase_schema.sql

- Run the SQL code to confirm the tables are created.
- Copy the supabase url and anon key from the project settings and paste it in the
.env
file inNEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_URL
andNEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY
Retell AI Setup (Retell AI)
We use Retell AI to manage all the voice calls. They manage storage of recordings and provide a simple SDK to integrate with. They provide free credits to start with and will have to pay as you go.
- Create an API key from Retell AI Dashboard and add it to the
.env
file inRETELL_API_KEY
We use OpenAI to generate questions for interviews and analyze responses. This would not be that costly.
- Go to OpenAI and create an API key
- Add the API key to the
.env
file inOPENAI_API_KEY
First install the packages:
yarn
Run the development server:
yarn dev
Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.
We recommend using Vercel to host the app.
