Installation Steps

macOS

Download the DMG

Download the appropriate .dmg for your Mac:

  • Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3)AtlasStudio-1.0.0-beta-arm64.dmg
  • Intel MacAtlasStudio-1.0.0-beta-x64.dmg

Not sure which? Click Apple menu → About This Mac → Chip.

Open the DMG

Double-click the downloaded .dmg file. A window opens showing the Atlas Studio icon and your Applications folder.

Drag to Applications

Drag Atlas Studio to the Applications folder.

Launch Atlas Studio

Open Finder → Applications → Atlas Studio. Right-click → Open (first launch only, to bypass Gatekeeper).

Activate your license

On first launch, you’ll be prompted to sign in with your Atlas Studio account or enter a license key. See Authentication & Licensing.

Gatekeeper warning on first launch: macOS may show “Atlas Studio cannot be opened because it is from an unidentified developer.” Right-click the app → Open → Open. This only happens once. We are in the process of obtaining Apple notarization.

First Launch Checklist

After installing and launching Atlas Studio:

  • Sign in with your Atlas Studio account (or enter license key)
  • Complete the onboarding wizard (takes ~5 minutes)
  • Add your first connector (Kubernetes, Datadog, etc.)
  • Set your AI model preference (Fast / Balanced / Deep)
  • Try the Coding Agent with a simple prompt

Proxy and Firewall Configuration

If you’re behind a corporate proxy or firewall:

Proxy setup

Set these environment variables before launching Atlas Studio:

# macOS / Linux export HTTPS_PROXY=https://proxy.company.com:8080 export HTTP_PROXY=http://proxy.company.com:8080 export NO_PROXY=localhost,127.0.0.1 # Windows (PowerShell) $env:HTTPS_PROXY="https://proxy.company.com:8080" $env:HTTP_PROXY="http://proxy.company.com:8080"

Or configure in Atlas Studio → Settings → Network → Proxy.
