FAQ · PRODUCT BOUNDARIES
Questions, answered plainly.
A creator-owned public profile and contextual inbound assistant for people who want visitors to understand their work before getting in touch. These answers describe the product that exists now.
- 01What is Karte?
- Karte is a public profile with an inbound assistant. A creator or independent operator can publish links, projects, timeline entries, and profile context; visitors can browse, ask a question, or send a message with enough context for a more useful handoff.
- 02Who is Karte for today?
- The shipped product is for one profile owner: creators, builders, consultants, and independent operators. Karte also supports public agent profiles and machine-readable agent manifests. Company cards are a planned validation, not a shipped team product.
- 03How is this different from a normal link-in-bio?
- A normal link list routes every visitor to another page. Karte keeps owned context together, lets a visitor ask a profile-grounded question, and carries the resulting intent into chat, contact, email, leads, and the owner dashboard.
- 04Do visitors need an account?
- No. Published profiles, links, projects, timeline entries, ready profile modes, and visitor-facing contact or chat can be used without a visitor account. The owner signs in with Google to claim and manage the page.
- 05Is Karte free?
- There is no billing in the current product, so Karte is free to use today. That is a statement about the current release, not a promise that every future feature or plan will remain free forever.
- 06What does the AI know?
- The assistant is grounded in the public content and memory the profile owner supplies. It can answer from that context and fall back to a bounded public-bio response; it should not invent private knowledge or speak for the owner beyond the published material.
- 07What can an owner manage?
- The authenticated dashboard manages profile sections, links, projects, timeline entries, appearance, chat and contact settings, inboxes, leads, analytics, custom domains, and optional encyclopedia, newspaper, and roast modes.
- 08Does Karte support company profiles?
- Not as a complete company workflow yet. The current profile foundation can introduce an individual or agent, but company-specific ownership, team roles, approval, and repeated company use still need a focused workflow and a real-company test.
