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, your pages and posts are listed together under Content → All content, and the site's own settings are in Site → Manage.
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 Starter or Pro, we design and build a site for your brand, and everything you publish in Pendium goes to it. On Starter it lives at its own Pendium address. On Pro it can also live in a folder on your domain (
yourdomain.com/blog) or on a subdomain (blog.yourdomain.com). Subscribing from a brand starts that brand's build, and so does finishing onboarding for a brand you add while you're on Starter or Pro. The build starts once Pendium has read the brand's website and written its first pages and post, so the site is built from them. For any other brand, request it from Site → Manage. On Pro you can connect your domain or subpath in Integrations → Your domain 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. - On the free plan, Pendium doesn't make pages or posts for your brand or build it a site. Site → Manage shows generated previews of what a site for your brand could look like. Pages and posts a free brand already has stay as they are: 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).
On Starter or Pro, a brand's Profile and FAQ are published for you when it finishes onboarding, or when its owner moves to one of those plans (a free trial counts). Pendium reads the brand's website first, which can take up to half an hour for a large site, and emails you when the pages and the first post are ready. Before publishing, it writes the Profile's description and the Business Info answers from what it read (a brand set up on the free plan has none until then); anything you've edited yourself is kept as you wrote it. The FAQ is the answers in Business Info. A page you unpublish later stays unpublished. The Setup Guide shows where each step stands while it runs, and the reason if one doesn't finish, such as a profile that wasn't ready in time.
To see only your pages, choose Pages at the top of All content. The page tools sit above the list there: Create a page yourself, Add pages with AI, Service-area pages for a local business, Recreate from your website, and Create homepage on a Pendium-hosted site. A design preview waiting for your approval shows there too, with Approve and Regenerate. Each row's menu can publish or unpublish the page, and delete a custom 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.
Preview on your site opens a draft page as your site shows it, and View live page opens a published one. To change part of a page with AI, use Rewrite on that section. Profile and FAQ also have Refresh from Business Info, which writes the page's copy again from your Business Info. It replaces the copy the page has now, including your edits, so it asks you to confirm first.
A custom page (a service, location or other page) opens in the same editor as a post. The headline and the page's address sit at the top, then a row with the page's type, how many sections it has and its status: Draft, Ready, Needs you when its quality check holds it, or Live. The formatting toolbar, Save draft and Publish stay at the top while you scroll. Publish waits until your changes are saved. A published page has Update page and Unpublish instead. Pages keep no redirects, so changing a published page's address means links to its old address stop working. Drag a section by its handle to move it, or use Move up and Move down. Add a section, or draft one with AI, after the last section. The side panel has three tabs: Details (the page type, the search description, whether the page shows in your site menu, and the Create run that wrote it, with a link to its chat), Sources and Why (the questions the page was written to answer). Connections, the call to action, form submissions and the page's design are under Page settings, below the page. Copy content copies the page as Markdown. The post editor's side panel has the same tab names: Details, Sources and Why.
A custom page in this editor gets the same quality check as a post. The banner above the page says what the check found, with Show me, Keep all notes and Run again. Flagged claims are underlined on the page; click one for Fix it ✦ (AI rewrites that section to fix the claim, for you to accept), Remove (deletes the claim) or Keep, it's true. Publish waits until each claim the check flagged as possibly false or invented is fixed or kept, and until the check has read your latest saved edits: after you edit the page, run the check again. A fix you accept counts until you edit the page again. Claims it only asks you to double-check are notes, and never hold a page. Fact updates for the page's title and search description show under the quality check, with Accept and Keep; updates to a section show on that section.
Your Home, Profile, FAQ and Offerings pages are moving to the same section model. Each one converts the first time you open it in the editor (a Home page Pendium hasn't written yet stays as it is). Once converted, it opens in this editor like a custom page, with its own sections, the same quality check and the same Publish rules. Its address is fixed, and your site menu links it on its own, so it has no menu setting. The blocks Pendium fills in from live data show as locked placeholders: From your site for the Offerings page's list of offering and location pages (with Manage offerings, which opens your offerings list and its page checklist), and From Business Info for the Profile page's rating, address, hours and contact details. The Sources tab says the page was written from your company profile and Business Info. After the conversion, a change to Brand Kit or Business Info no longer rewrites the page; Profile and FAQ no longer have Refresh from Business Info.
In the section editor, AI rewrite and Add section suggestions use current Business Info corrections and saved wording restrictions alongside Knowledge. Older page text does not take precedence over a current correction. You review a suggestion before applying it and saving the page. AI rewrite works on custom pages and on the FAQ's question topics, and Add section works on custom pages. A Home, Offerings, Profile or FAQ page that has been converted to sections gets both, on its sections, the same as a custom page.
The Feed
The Feed is your site's post stream. Posts get there by being published from Content → All content, typically written on Create, 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}.
To see what's live, filter All content to published posts; it shows them as cards and says when your site or its posts aren't visible yet. 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.
When editing a post, AI inserts and fixes for flagged claims also check current corrections and saved wording restrictions. Suggestions keep numeric qualifications, such as a notice period with an exception, for review. If verification cannot finish, the suggestion shows a warning so you can check it before accepting.
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.
