Site: Pages & Feed
What your site is (Profile, FAQ, custom Pages, and a Feed of posts), where it lives on each plan, and how publishing to it works.
Your site is the public, AI-readable home for what you write in Pendium, built for AI agents (and people) to read, understand, and cite your brand. It has two parts:
- Pages: static information about your brand, such as a Profile, an FAQ, and any custom pages.
- Feed: a continuously-updated stream of posts that help AI platforms research and recommend you.
In the app, the Site section of the sidebar has Manage, Pages, and Posts.
Where your site lives
New brands don't get a site at pendium.ai/{your-username}. Where your content goes depends on your plan and on when the brand was created:
- On Pro, we design and build a site for your brand, and everything you publish in Pendium goes to it. It can live in a folder on your domain (
yourdomain.com/blog) or on a subdomain (blog.yourdomain.com), or at its own Pendium address if you don't connect a domain. Upgrading to Pro from a brand starts that brand's build. For any other brand, request it from Site → Manage, where you can also connect your domain or subpath while the site is being built. When the site is ready we let you know. It stays private while you look it over from Site → Manage, and it goes live, on your domain or subpath if you set one up, when you make it public. - Without Pro, Site → Manage shows generated previews of what a site for your brand could look like. You still write and publish pages and posts. Published content is available from the site export for your own front end, and posts copy to a connected CMS that has auto-publish turned on.
- Brands that already had a Pendium-hosted site keep it for now, at
pendium.ai/{your-username}or on the custom domain or subpath they connected.
When a Pendium-hosted site moves to a site we built, its old pendium.ai/{your-username} links redirect (HTTP 308) to the matching page on the new site once that site is public. Until then they return a 404, and so do the old links of a brand Pendium hosts no site for.
Pages
Pages hold the durable facts about your brand:
- Profile: your brand identity, what you offer, and the key facts an AI should know. You fill in and refine the content.
- FAQ: common questions and answers.
- Custom pages: add your own (for example, a services directory or a specific topic page).
Each page is edited in-app and published per page. An unpublished page exists in your editor but doesn't appear publicly. On a Pendium-hosted site, published pages render at pendium.ai/{username} (Profile), /{username}/faq, and /{username}/{slug} for custom pages. A site built for you serves each page at the path the site export lists.
The Feed
The Feed is your site's post stream. Posts get there by being published from your Content Library, typically created with a content workflow, then published with Publish Now. Once published, a post appears in your Feed immediately. On a Pendium-hosted site that's pendium.ai/{username} and /{username}/{post-slug}.
You can tune the Feed in the Posts settings tab of Site → Manage:
- Categories to organize posts (auto-generated, fully editable).
- Writers: AI author personas with names, bios, and avatars that posts are attributed to.
- Newsletter signup and branding options.
- Site identity: title, tagline, and description.
The Feed also publishes an RSS feed and sitemap so crawlers and agents can discover everything.
Your home page
On a Pendium-hosted site, the site root (pendium.ai/{username}, or your connected domain) resolves to the best available surface, in order: a home page you've chosen, then your Profile, then your Feed, then the next published page. You can set a preferred home in Site → Manage.
Publishing
If your brand has a site, publishing a post puts it there, with no other setup required. You do not need a CMS connected to publish. If you also connect WordPress, Webflow, or Ghost, published posts mirror there too when auto-publish is on, but that's additive. A brand without a site still publishes: the post goes into the site export and to any connected CMS with auto-publish on.
On a Pendium-hosted site, the switch that takes the whole site public is on the Site tab of Site → Manage. From there you control whether the whole site and the Feed are visible.
