Open the Copilot
Click the button below to open the Ownable dashboard in a new tab:

Connect GitHub
If asked, authorize Ownable to access your GitHub account. This permission is needed to create your website repository for you.
-
Claim your Domain
The Copilot will ask for a repository name.
- Recommended: Enter
username.github.io(replaceusernamewith your exact GitHub username). - Result: Your site will be published to
https://username.github.io(free!).
- Recommended: Enter

Wait for Deployment
Click Create Site. The Copilot will spin up your repository and trigger the first build. This usually takes 30-60 seconds.
Success!
