# Switch from Day.ai to Migaru in four steps

> Bring your companies, contacts and deals across as CSV files, and connect your inbox: Migaru rebuilds the context from two years of email and meetings, with the agent included for everyone at a fixed price.

## The move at a glance

- **Four steps** from the first export to a connected inbox.
- **A minute or two** to import a file of tens of thousands of rows.
- **Two years** of email and meetings, read back from each mailbox.
- **Undo** any import from its history, if a column went to the wrong field.

## Day.ai to Migaru, step by step

1. **Export your records from Day.ai.** Get your companies, contacts and deals out of Day.ai as CSV files. Nothing connects to Day.ai, so nothing there changes while you move.
2. **Set up your stages and fields.** Name your deal stages to match the ones you use in Day.ai, and add a field for each custom property you want to keep. The importer maps onto fields that already exist, and a stage only comes across if Migaru has one spelled exactly the same way.
3. **Import each file.** Import companies as accounts, contacts as contacts and deals as deals, up to 50,000 rows a file. Columns named like one of your fields map themselves, and where it can, Migaru suggests a field for the rest for you to check. Every import is logged and can be undone.
4. **Connect your mailbox and calendar.** Each person connects Gmail or Outlook along with its calendar, and Migaru reads back up to two years. Conversations land on the records you imported: contacts are matched on email address and accounts on the domain of their website, so https://www.acme.com and acme.com are the same account. Anything that still looks like a duplicate is flagged for you to merge.

### After the move, if you want

- **Add your call transcripts.** Drop in the transcripts your recorder exports, several at a time. Migaru files each one on the meeting it belongs to, making one when your calendar never had it, or on the account or contact when it can't be sure, and lists any it can't place for you to attach. It reads each one for commitments, unless the person who uploaded it keeps only who and when.
- **Rebuild the automations you still need.** Describe each rule in a sentence: what triggers it, the conditions, and what to do, such as set a field, create a task or notify someone. Migaru reads the rule back to you before it is created. Workflows come with Pro and above.

## What comes across from Day.ai

| In Day.ai | In Migaru |
| --- | --- |
| **Companies** | Accounts. One already in Migaru with the same website is filled in rather than copied. |
| **Contacts** | Contacts. A company column links each to its company's account, made if there isn't one, and a contact already here with the same email address is filled in rather than copied. |
| **Deals** | Deals, each at the stage with the same name. Nothing identifies a deal, so import the file once, or undo the first run before a second. |
| **Customer memory** | Built again from the source: two years of each person's email and meetings, and the transcripts you upload. |
| **Recordings** | Not imported. Drop in any transcript you can save as a file, and Migaru files it on its meeting. |
| **AI agents** | The agent is on every plan, for everyone, with no agents to deploy or count. |

## What you gain by leaving Day.ai

### The agent for everyone

Everyone on the team can ask the agent, and the price doesn't change with how much they do or how many of them do it.

### A pipeline, kept for you

Accounts, contacts and deals with stages and scores, kept current from your conversations, with sequences and dashboards on Pro and above.

### No bot on your calls

Migaru never joins a call. Upload the transcripts your recorder exports, and each is filed on its meeting and read for promises.

### Judgement calls wait for you

Summaries and last-contact dates keep themselves current, while a deal's stage, value and close date are suggested for a person to accept.

## Frequently asked questions

### How long does it take to switch from Day.ai?

Four steps. Each import runs as soon as its columns are mapped, taking a minute or two for a file of tens of thousands of rows, and each person connects their mailbox and calendar in a couple of minutes. Reading two years of email and meetings carries on in the background, a batch every fifteen minutes, while you work.

### Will I lose the context Day.ai gathered?

Not what it was gathered from. Migaru reads up to two years of email and meetings from each person's mailbox and calendar, and files the transcripts you upload on their meetings, so the context is built again from the source.

### Can we keep using Day.ai while we move?

Yes. Migaru never connects to Day.ai, so nothing there changes while your team moves across. There's no sync between the two either, so pick a day to stop entering data in Day.ai.

### Does our email history come across from Day.ai?

Not from Day.ai: Migaru reads it from the source instead. When each person connects Gmail or Outlook, up to two years of email and meetings are read back and filed on the records you imported.
