🎨 Firm Branding
Customize how your firm appears in the client portal, proposals, and emails.
Share this link with clients. They sign in with their email and password.
Upload a square brand mark for the login page and browser icon. Recommended: 512×512px, with a transparent background.
Keep the full firm logo for proposals and emails. The portal icon also appears in the client portal's browser tab.
🌐 Custom Domains
Let clients access proposals and the portal via your own domain (e.g. my.sentineltax.co) instead of darklion.ai.
- Enter your domain below (e.g.
my.yourdomain.com) — you'll get a TXT verification token and CNAME target. - Log in to your DNS provider (GoDaddy, Cloudflare, Namecheap, etc.) and add both records shown — the TXT record to verify ownership, and the CNAME record to point traffic to DarkLion.
- In your Railway dashboard, go to your DarkLion service → Settings → Networking → Add Custom Domain → enter your domain. Railway will handle the SSL certificate automatically.
- Click "Check Verification" once your DNS records have propagated. Usually under 30 minutes.
- Once verified, all proposal links for your firm will automatically use your custom domain. ✅
🔑 API Keys
API keys allow external agents and services to access DarkLion APIs. For Agent Work features like Inbox drafts and Team Chat replies, assign the key to the staff/agent identity it should act as. Store keys securely — they are shown only once.

Desktop Apps
Install desktop tools for your firm's staff.
1. Install WinFsp before running the installer. If you see a WinFsp error, download it first: winfsp.dev/rel
2. After connecting, look for the DarkLion Drive shortcut on your Desktop. On OneDrive-synced PCs it may appear in your user folder (
C:\Users\you\DarkLion Drive) — drag it to your Desktop.
🗓 Tax Season
Set the active tax year for client organizers. When you flip this, the client portal immediately shows the new year's organizer. No deploy needed.
📄 Client Document Upload Routing
Choose which staff members receive Inbox alerts for each client-uploaded folder. Organizer uploads follow Tax routing. Secure-message attachments remain regular Messages.
Communications archive
Generate a retained, checksum-verified export of client and internal communications for any date range.
Archived companies
Hidden company records can be restored at any time.
