The Live Canvas is your company's real website, opened next to Team Chat. Click a heading and retype it, change a font, a size or a colour, or circle a whole section and tell the CTO what should change there. The agent's cursor appears on the page with the name you gave it, and shows what it is doing: reading the page, writing the change, building the preview.
Nothing is half-saved. Your edits and the agents' changes collect as one draft, and leaving Team Chat commits them to the branch you chose at the top: main publishes to your live site, any other branch stays off it until you push it to production. It is switched on for every company, whatever the site is built with, and nobody has to use it.
What you can do on the canvas
Edit in place
Rewrite text, change the typeface, size, weight, colour and spacing directly on the page, the way you would in a design tool.
Circle and comment
Circle any part of the page and a prompt box opens beside it. The agent you pick receives the elements you circled, their place on the page and your words.
Named agent cursors
Each agent works on the page as a cursor carrying its name, and the cursor follows what it is really doing.
Attach files
Drop a logo, photo, PDF, video or font into the request. It is published once and the agent uses that exact file, never a redrawn copy.
Branches
Work on main to publish, or on another branch to keep a change off the live site until you push it.
Any stack
Sites Empyre generated and repositories you imported (Astro, plain HTML, Rails and more) all open in the canvas.
Chips: say exactly what you mean
Type / anywhere
In Team Chat, on the launch page and on the canvas, typing / lists every connection Empyre runs, every part of Empyre (Calendar, Inbox, Revenue, Goals) and every agent.
A chip is a fact, not a guess
/linear becomes a Linear chip with its logo. The agents read it as Linear, a connection, so there is no doubt which thing you meant.
Plain sentences still work
"I want to connect my own domain" opens the domain panel with no chip at all. Chips are for precision, never required.
Connect what Empyre runs, from the chat
Real connections only
Gmail, Google Calendar, GitHub, Linear, X, Stripe, Google Ads, Figma, your website, your own domain and business email. Each opens its own panel in the chat and is used by the agents for real: mail sent from your Gmail, bugs filed in Linear, posts on X, payments through your Stripe.
Domains that explain themselves
Checking your DNS records asks the public DNS for each record and says which one is in place, missing or set to something else, and to what.
Nothing consequential without a yes
A payment, a disconnect or a mailbox switch waits for your confirmation; everything else completes in the chat.
Questions
Which plans include the Live Canvas?
Every paid plan: Starter, Growth, Empyre and pay as you go. It costs nothing to open; an agent's change is a normal agent run billed in credits.
Do the agents push straight to my live site?
Only when the branch at the top is main. Pick another branch and the change stays there until you push it to production.
Does it work on a site I imported?
Yes. Empyre adds a small editing script to the site's page layout, which does nothing unless the page is opened inside your own Empyre account.
