# Read My Website

Reads your website, or only the pages you allow, into your brand's knowledge, then refreshes your destination when the read is done.

When Read My Website runs, [Octo](https://begenuin.com/developers/get-started/any-business/octo-operates-your-brand-control-center-octo-proposes-you-approve), Genuin's Supervised Intelligence interface in Brand Control Center (BCC), reads your site's stories, events, and pages into your brand's knowledge. It's an Official Supervised Intelligence capability that Genuin publishes in the [Capability Marketplace](https://begenuin.com/developers/browse-by-products/marketplace/marketplace-what-it-does-and-where-to-start). It runs as a background job, and each run shows under **Background Invocations**.

## When to use it

Use it to give Octo what your website says before other capabilities build on it. [Build My Brand Structure](https://begenuin.com/developers/browse-by-products/marketplace/build-my-brand-structure) drafts your categories, communities, and groups from this read. If only part of your site belongs in your brand's knowledge, list the pages Octo can read.

## How it works

- You give Octo your website URL and your brand name. You can also list the only pages Octo reads.
- Octo reads the site into your brand's knowledge: its stories, events, and pages. By default, it reads up to 200 pages.
- Octo tracks the read and reports its status.
- When the read is done, Octo refreshes your destination, unless you turn that setting off.
- It uses Genuin's built-in tools only. Its card shows "No external tools", and **Required models** shows Default.

## Add it to your brand

1. In BCC, go to **Marketplace** > **Marketplace**.
2. Search for Read My Website and click **View and add** on its **Official** card.
3. Check **Required tools** and **Required models**, then click **Add to My Intelligence Capabilities**.
4. On your copy under **My Capabilities**, click **Enable in Intelligence**.

If your brand already has a copy, the card shows **Manage copy** instead of **View and add**.

## Approvals
