Sharing

A brain can stay private, or it can become something others read, copy, and ask. There are three ways to share.

Public brains#

Make a brain public and anyone can read its pages and ask it questions. Public pages are given clean URLs and are indexed by search engines, so a curated brain works as a living, citable resource — a course reader, a product knowledge base, a research collection. You stay in control of visibility and can turn it private again at any time.

Forking#

If you allow it, a visitor can fork a public brain — copying its synthesized wiki and graph into a brain of their own to build on. Forking copies the readable layer, not your original files, so it shares knowledge without handing over the raw material. Forks start private and credit the original.

Forking and a paid listing are mutually exclusive: a brain is either free to fork or sold per question, never both. See Marketplace for the paid path.

The website widget#

Embed an Ask bubble on your own website with a single script tag. Visitors ask your brain and get grounded, cited answers without leaving your page or signing up. The widget is brain-scoped and read-only, with an origin allowlist, a daily cap, and prepaid credits so usage stays within bounds you set. See Widgets for the full guide.
