# The Viable Edge

> Brand Architect is a $49/mo subscription where Ophelia, an AI Brand Architect, builds and maintains a brand's knowledge base: positioning, voice, ICPs, messaging, and competitor intelligence that AI tools can read directly.

## Product

- [Brand Architect](https://www.viableedge.com/agents): AI agent that builds and maintains your brand's knowledge base.
- [Pricing](https://www.viableedge.com/#pricing): Plans and billing.
- [FAQ](https://www.viableedge.com/faq): Frequently asked questions.

## Brand drift

- [Brand drift](https://www.viableedge.com/brand-drift): What brand drift is, how AI accelerates it when models reconstruct a company from stale or conflicting public context, how to detect it, and how to stop it.
- [Brand snapshot audit](https://www.viableedge.com/audit): Scores a website across five dimensions and quotes the evidence it can verify against the site text. Running it requires an account; exports without an active subscription are watermarked.
- [Brand voice check](https://www.viableedge.com/voice): Short public path that drafts one voice document from a website. It is not the full knowledge-base build.

## How it works

- [Answer Engine Optimization guide](https://www.viableedge.com/blog/answer-engine-optimization-get-recommended-by-ai): Get your brand recommended by AI search engines and agents.
- [Open Knowledge Format](https://www.viableedge.com/blog/open-knowledge-format-guide): Standard format for portable brand knowledge.
- [Brand architecture Q&A](https://www.viableedge.com/resources/brand-architecture-qa): Questions and answers about brand strategy.

## For AI agents

Every brand built here ships a machine-readable knowledge base, not just a web page. A subscriber turns on a share link from inside the product and gets a revocable token; the token is the credential, and every surface below hangs off it at `https://www.viableedge.com/brand/<share-token>/...`. There is no public API key and no anonymous access: without a token these paths do not resolve.

- [Developers](https://www.viableedge.com/developers): What a brand exposes to agents: the MCP server and its tools, the exports below with their URL shapes, and how a subscriber gets an endpoint.
- [Design language](https://www.viableedge.com/design.md): How to build a page that looks like this product. Judgment, observable type and color, named anti-patterns.
- [Answer engine section](https://www.viableedge.com/agents#answer-engine): What a brand exposes to agents and answer engines, and how a subscriber turns it on.
- MCP server: `/brand/<share-token>/mcp`, a Streamable HTTP MCP endpoint (send `Accept: application/json, text/event-stream`). Read-only tools over one brand's knowledge base: `list_docs`, `read_doc`, `get_manifest`, `vault_search` (semantic search), `get_doc_content`, `get_brand_panels`, `list_competitors`, `get_market_landscape`, and typed graph walks `get_neighbors`, `get_related_docs`, `trace_path`, `graph_query`.
- Brand JSON pack: `/brand/<share-token>/manifest.json` for the priority-ordered document list, strategic framework and coherence scorecard; `/brand/<share-token>/graph.json` for the node and edge set. Single documents are addressable as markdown at `/brand/<share-token>/<doc-slug>.md`, linked from both the manifest and the per-brand llms.txt.
- Schema.org JSON-LD: `/brand/<share-token>/schema.json`, an Organization graph for answer engines. Opt-in per share link, off by default.
- Markdown export: `/brand/<share-token>/bundle.md` for the whole knowledge base as one LLM-ready markdown file, and `/brand/<share-token>/CLAUDE.md` for a snippet to append to a coding agent's own CLAUDE.md.
- Agent skills: `/brand/<share-token>/skills`, the brand's own skills in the open SKILL.md format as `{ files: [{ path, content }] }`, ready to write into an agent's skills directory.
- Open Knowledge Format: `/brand/<share-token>/okf` returns an OKF v0.1 bundle as a gzipped tarball (`curl -s <url>/okf | tar xz`), or `?format=json` for the same files inline.
- Per-brand index: `/brand/<share-token>/llms.txt`, the same convention as this file, scoped to one brand.
