Introduction

Markdown

Ownsite is your own corner of the internet. A home page, a blog, a private journal and any page you like, on your own domain.

Ownsite gives you one website that is entirely yours. It can hold a home page that says who you are, a blog, a journal only you can read, and any other page you want, such as a portfolio or a page of drum videos. Everything lives under one address, and you manage all of it from one app.

You can do the work yourself, or ask an AI to do it for you. Ownsite has its own AI built in, and you can also connect the AI you already use, like ChatGPT or Claude.

#Start here

QuickstartGo from your invite to a live site in about ten minutes.How Ownsite worksYour site, your app, pages, looks and blocks, in one page.Connect your domainMove your whole site to a domain you own, step by step.Connect ChatGPT or ClaudeLet your own AI write posts and redesign pages for you.

#What you can build

Home pageOne page that says who you are. Pick a template or have an AI design it.BlogPosts with photos and categories. Keep some private, publish the rest.JournalA daily journal that only you can open, unless you choose to share it.Any other pageA portfolio, a reading list, a guestbook. Public, or just for you.

#Three promises

Nothing goes public by accident. Every change starts as a draft. Your visitors see it only after you press Publish, and an AI must ask you first.

Nothing is lost. Every version of every page is kept. You can go back to any of them at any time, and deleted journal entries wait 30 days before they are gone.

It stays yours. No ads, no feed and no algorithm. You can use your own domain, and an AI can only touch the parts of your site that you allow.

Tip:

These docs are also written for AI. Your AI can read them through Ownsite's connection, and every page here has a plain Markdown version (see Copy page at the top). The full index for AI tools is at /llms.txt.
