For founders

# The startup website that runs itself.

You built your website with Claude Code. Fimo takes it off your plate: your team edits anything without code, and agents keep the site optimized while you build the company.

## A site that keeps itself up to date.

You set the goals. Agents do the work.

Give each agent a cadence and it runs on its own: SEO daily, content weekly, translations the moment you publish. The site keeps improving while you build the company, with no one to remind it.

## SEO for startups, handled by agents.

No ad spend. No retainer. No Sunday-night blog sprint.

SEO is the classic startup regret: everyone knows it works, nobody has time to start. Fimo’s agents do it on a schedule: SEO content, technical SEO, internal linking, and GEO so AI assistants recommend you.

## One command to migrate. No expensive rebuild.

Skip the project, keep growing the company.

Redoing your site is the project you never have time for. Fimo skips it: point our CLI at the code you already have, and your site is editable and running with agents from day one. No migration to plan, no detour from the business.

---

## Works with your favorite tools.

Your site keeps up with your stack.

Connect your tools, and the agents act on them. A question that keeps coming up becomes a drafted FAQ answer. A page losing visitors gets fixed. Everything waits for your approval, and your tools stay yours.

How it works

## From launch day to running on its own.

### Connect, don’t rebuild.

Connect Fimo to the code your agent already wrote. No rebuild, no migration: the site becomes editable for your whole team from day one.

### The site works while you sleep.

Agents work on a schedule, or respond to events on your site, and open changes for your review. Approve in minutes from Fimo, Slack, or Teams.

### Hand it over, not a Git tutorial.

When you make your first marketing hire, hand them the site. Role-based permissions, versioned changes, and the code stays yours underneath.

FAQ

## Questions founders ask.

### What is the best CMS for a startup?

The best CMS for a startup is the one that does not need a dedicated person to run it. If your site was built with a coding agent, that means an AI CMS: your team edits the live site without touching code, and agents handle the optimization work a startup never staffs. Traditional and headless CMSs assume someone owns the website; at a startup, nobody should have to.

### Do I need a technical cofounder to run my website?

No. You edit visually (inline, by chat, or through the CMS), the code stays yours underneath, and the agents handle the technical upkeep. If you can review a doc, you can run your site.

### What exactly do the agents do?

They run the work a startup never staffs: SEO content and technical SEO, internal linking, generative engine optimization so LLMs cite you, plus Lighthouse, accessibility, and mobile checks. Fimo gives you the infrastructure to spin up an agent, connect it to your site, and coordinate the whole team, without building any of that yourself. Pick the ones that fit, or build your own.

### I already built my site with Claude Code. What does Fimo add?

Everything after deploy. Claude Code built it; Fimo keeps it editable for non-developers and keeps agents working on it while it is live: SEO, GEO, internal linking, performance. Where your coding agent ends, we begin.

### How much time does this actually save?

Every content change stops being a code change, and the SEO and GEO work you were never going to get to happens on a schedule without you. How much that is worth depends on how often your site should be changing. For most early-stage teams, the site goes from frozen to updated every week, with no founder hours attached.

### Will I outgrow Fimo?

Your site stays real code in your repository, so you are never locked in: any developer can work on it, and you can leave with everything. You keep your own stack and plug in the marketing tools you want. As your team grows, permissions and review rules grow with it.

### Can my first marketing hire take over the site?

That is the goal. Give them edit access with their own permissions, let them run the content and the agents, and your developers never get pinged for copy again. No migration, no CMS project: the site they inherit is the one you already have.
