FIDO
How it works
There are two steps to adding FIDO to a site: a dashboard for sources, configurations, and covers, and a small snippet that places the search box on the page.
01
Type a search term
A visitor uses the FIDO box on your website. The embed is a small snippet — the host site does not need to change.
02
FIDO fetches the relevant articles
Hybrid search ranks articles from the sources attached to that configuration — crawled sites or manual uploads.
03
A branded booklet is generated
Cover, optional AI summary, and article pages appear in a few seconds as HTML. Readers can download a PDF or share the booklet.
04
Save, share, or print
Share links, social buttons, and PDF export take the result off the page. Views and downloads are counted in the dashboard.
The visitor journey
Search, retrieve, assemble a booklet, then save or share the result — without rebuilding the host site.
What you configure
- Organisation
- Your top-level account. Sources, configurations, members, and booklets belong to an organisation.
- Source
- A collection of content FIDO can search. A web source crawls sites; a manual source accepts uploaded articles.
- Configuration
- A search profile: which sources to use, how many results, relevancy, AI summary, and which cover is active. Identified by a UUID in the embed.
- Cover
- The visual wrapper for a booklet — front image and typography, inside colours, and back-page image and link.
- Booklet
- The result of a single search: a branded collection of articles that can be read as HTML or downloaded as a PDF.
- Article
- A single indexed page or upload, with title, body, date, and optional images. Editors can toggle articles on or off.
Embed on any common platform
Copy the snippet from a configuration’s integration page and paste it into a Custom HTML block (WordPress), Code block (Squarespace), Embed HTML widget (Wix), Embed element (Webflow), or a static HTML file.

Search a live configuration
Type a query to generate a branded booklet from a public FIDO configuration. If a demo ID is not configured yet, you can still book a walkthrough.
