# Access and licenses

We have a bunch of different systems that we use to do our jobs. Some things like Slack, everyone uses all the time so we will make sure you have access to these when you start. Other things, like whether you use JetBrains IDEs, are up to you so we'll only purchase or assign a license to these things on request (there's no "approval" process though, we just don't want to pay for things we don't need).

The common systems we use are listed below, but if you need access to something not listed here, reach out to Jayne or your manager and have a chat about it.

#### AI Tooling

Everyone has a preference when it comes to tooling and we don't want to *enforce* or limit to a particular tool. So we have a range of tools that are pre-approved for use at SixPivot. You can request a license for **one** AI tool of your choice. And if you need additional tools, reach out to Shirley to have a chat about it. Just please be sure to cross check with our [AI Assisted Software Development Policy. ](https://handbook.sixpivot.com.au/~/revisions/xhUBUn4eNuCID5oan4Qk/how-we-work/policies/ai-assisted-software-development-policy)
