Domains Overview

This document provides a high-level map of all ConnectSoft domains (connectsoft.ai, connectsoft.io, connectsoft.dev, connectsoft.co.il) and shows how they relate to products, audiences, and strategies. It is written for architects, marketing, GTM teams, and operations teams managing ConnectSoft's web presence.

ConnectSoft uses a strategic domain separation strategy to clearly differentiate between different aspects of the business: the AI Factory (control plane), ready-made SaaS platforms (data plane), developer resources, and local presence. Each domain has a clear role and audience.

Important

.ai = Control plane (orchestration, blueprints, generation) | .io = Data plane (user data, traffic from customers). This separation aligns with how we think about Factory vs Products.

Domain Strategy at a Glance

ConnectSoft uses multiple domains to serve different audiences and purposes. Each domain has a clear role:

  • .ai → AI Factory, platforms, thought leadership - The "brain" of ConnectSoft, where we explain how the Factory works, agent orchestration, and platform architecture
  • .io → SaaS marketplace and product catalog - The "marketplace" where customers discover and use ready-made SaaS solutions
  • .me → Personal Agents Platform - The "personal agents" brand for individuals, freelancers, students, and families to automate life tasks
  • .dev → Engineering/docs/developer portal - The "how-to" hub for developers integrating with ConnectSoft platforms and Factory
  • .co.il → Localized Israeli site - The "local presence" for Hebrew-speaking customers and partners in Israel

This separation ensures each domain tells a focused story without confusion, while allowing strategic cross-linking between domains.

Domain Roles and Positioning

Domain Primary Role Main Audience
connectsoft.ai AI Factory + platforms "brain" CTOs, architects, strategic buyers
connectsoft.io SaaS solutions & marketplace hub Product owners, business stakeholders
connectsoft.me Personal Agents Platform Individuals, freelancers, students, families
connectsoft.dev Developer portal & documentation Developers, DevOps, integrators
connectsoft.co.il Local / regional presence (Israel) Local clients (Hebrew), local partners

Note

Content can cross-link between domains, but each has a primary story. For example, .ai explains the Factory story, .io shows products built with the Factory, and .dev provides technical integration details. Strategic cross-linking helps users navigate between domains based on their needs.

Mapping Domains to Products and Audiences

Product / Area Default Public Entry Domain Notes
AI Factory connectsoft.ai Strategy, architecture, how it works
Identity Platform connectsoft.ai (product page); SaaS UI under identity.connectsoft.io Marketing on .ai, actual SaaS app on .io subdomain
Audit Platform connectsoft.ai (product page); SaaS UI under audit.connectsoft.io Marketing on .ai, actual SaaS app on .io subdomain
Config Platform connectsoft.ai (product page); SaaS UI under config.connectsoft.io Marketing on .ai, actual SaaS app on .io subdomain
Bot Platform connectsoft.ai (product page); SaaS UI under bot.connectsoft.io Marketing on .ai, actual SaaS app on .io subdomain
Ready SaaS Solutions connectsoft.io Each solution as a subdomain/path (e.g., employment.connectsoft.io)
Personal Agents Platform connectsoft.me Personal agents & agent teams for life automation (app.connectsoft.me)
Partner Program connectsoft.ai or .io Depends on positioning (strategic partners → .ai, delivery partners → .io)
Developer Docs & APIs connectsoft.dev Swagger, SDKs, technical docs, MkDocs site
Marketplace connectsoft.io Templates, modules, partner offerings (future)

Key Principle: Marketing pages live on apex domains (.ai, .io), while actual SaaS tenant UIs live on subdomains (e.g., audit.connectsoft.io).

Governance and Decision Principles

Core Principles

  • Avoid Content Duplication - Cross-link instead of duplicating content across domains
  • Clear Primary Narrative - Each domain has a clear primary story and audience
  • Domain Placement Decision - Any new public product must have a domain placement decision
  • Consistent Branding - Maintain consistent brand voice and messaging across domains
  • Strategic Cross-Linking - Link between domains where it helps user journeys

Decision Process

For New Products:

  1. Determine primary audience (strategic buyers, product owners, developers, local)
  2. Map to appropriate domain (.ai, .io, .dev, .co.il)
  3. Define subdomain strategy if needed (e.g., product.connectsoft.io)
  4. Document in DNS Subdomain Map

For Content:

  1. Determine primary audience
  2. Place content on appropriate domain
  3. Cross-link from other domains if relevant
  4. Avoid duplication

Decision

Core Domain Rule: connectsoft.ai is always the global AI Factory + platform brain. We do not put random micro-sites there. All Factory-related content, agent orchestration, and platform architecture belongs on .ai. Ready-made SaaS products and marketplace belong on .io. Personal agents for individuals belong on .me. Developer resources belong on .dev. Local/regional content belongs on .co.il.
