InfoEmu Docs

Getting started

InfoEmu is a managed cloud for running your community and web presence: hosted community forums, static site hosting with an upload deploy API, and — in beta — docs & knowledge-base sites like this one.

1. Create an account

Section titled “1. Create an account”

Sign up at portal.infoemu.com with your email address and verify it.

2. Start your trial

Section titled “2. Start your trial”

Every available plan comes with a 14-day free trial. A card is required at signup (checkout is handled by Paddle, our merchant of record). If you cancel before day 14 you are not charged anything.

Today the Starter plan ($49/mo) is available to buy. Pro and Business are coming soon — see Plans & pricing for the full picture.

3. Create your site

Section titled “3. Create your site”

From the dashboard, choose what you want to run:

  • Community forum — a managed forum instance, provisioned automatically after checkout. See Forum admin basics for your first steps as an administrator.
  • Static site — a hosting slot for a site you build yourself (any static site generator). You publish to it with a deploy token — see Deploying your docs site.
  • Docs / knowledge base (beta) — a static docs site built from this starter, with sidebar navigation, full-text search, and a knowledge-base section.

Your site gets its own subdomain (shown in your dashboard) as soon as provisioning finishes — usually within a couple of minutes. You can attach your own domain afterwards: see Custom domains.
