Who is OpenCMO for?
OpenCMO is for founders, teams, and businesses that need market research, positioning, campaign drafts, approval workflows, analytics, and weekly CMO briefs before they can fully staff a marketing department. Today OpenCMO is a free, self-serve public beta of an AI marketing and GTM operating system; the paid Founder Sprint and design-partner engagements run alongside it.

The public demo workspace uses sample product data to show market signals, pain clusters, campaign assets, a 10-agent marketing team, manual approval queue, reports, and a focused AI CMO chat experience.

OpenCMO brings market radar, Brand Brain, competitor intelligence, GTM Scout, positioning strategy, social and content drafts, Studio assets, analytics, and CMO briefs into one private command center. Teams use the manual-publish workflow to review source-aware recommendations and send the strongest work with confidence.
Which marketing channels can OpenCMO help with?
OpenCMO is designed around channel specialists for Reddit and community, SEO/GEO/AEO, GTM Scout, Writer Agent, long-form content, LinkedIn, X, Hacker News, technical site tasks, creative and UGC briefs, analytics, CMO reports, and founder-led follow-up motions.
Can teammates and AI assistants use OpenCMO safely?

What is OpenCMO Studio?
OpenCMO Studio is the content-production room for the growth loop. It organizes scripts, UGC briefs, hooks, captions, recreate tasks, manual publishing queues, performance notes, boost briefs, and CMO Studio summaries so campaign work can move from idea to review.
What is a Founder Sprint?
A Founder Sprint is a guided OpenCMO workflow that maps a product into a focused growth push. It reviews product context, shapes the Brand Brain, creates campaign drafts, prepares approval-ready assets, and produces a CMO brief with the next actions.
Is OpenCMO fully self-serve today?
OpenCMO is a free public beta: anyone can create a workspace with Google or email sign-in, no card required. Growth Sprints, approvals, and reports are self-serve today, while paid Founder Sprints stay founder-led until public checkout is proven safe.

OpenCMO prepares draft work and organizes it for review. Public content, social posts, paid media, and external actions stay manual, policy-scoped, and approval-led in V1.
What is the OpenCMO Install Wizard?
The OpenCMO Install Wizard is a private-preview connector foundation for product and repository context. It is designed to create redacted context previews, source-readiness notes, and workspace setup material without exposing secrets or changing source code automatically.
How does OpenCMO use my product context?
OpenCMO uses product context to build a Brand Brain: target customers, positioning, proof points, voice, competitors, source notes, and current growth goals. That context informs radar, campaign drafts, Studio output, approvals, analytics, and reports.
Can I bring my own model key later?
OpenCMO's runtime architecture is designed to support managed provider keys, customer-owned keys, private background runs, deterministic fallback modes, and the Autonomy Control Plane later. V1 keeps live provider activation gated while the workflow and safety controls are proven.
How does OpenCMO help with SEO, GEO, and AEO?
OpenCMO treats search and AI-answer visibility as growth channels. It can identify schema gaps, FAQ opportunities, direct-answer blocks, article ideas, entity trust signals, and technical site tasks that become approval-ready recommendations.
