# Publive AXP overview
> What Publive AXP is, how AXP Edge and AI Streams work together, and who they're for.
Publive AXP (Agent Experience Platform) makes your brand findable and citable inside AI answers from ChatGPT, Google AI Overviews, Perplexity, and Gemini. AI agents read your site the same way human visitors and search crawlers do. If they can't parse or trust your content, they won't cite it.
Manage your Brand Profile, Content & Global Rules, and Edge Analytics.
AXP ships as two products:
Makes the pages you already have readable to AI, with no rebuild.
Publishes new, AI-first content designed to be cited. **Coming soon.**
## AXP Edge vs. AI Streams
The two products solve different problems, so you can run one or both.
| | AXP Edge | AI Streams |
| ------------ | ------------------------------------------------------ | -------------------------------------------------------------- |
| What it does | Serves your existing pages to AI, clean and structured | Builds new AI-first content on your domain |
| Effort | Plug and play at the CDN layer, no rebuild | Managed by Publive AXP's content engine |
| New content? | No, it re-renders what you already have | Yes, prompt-researched pages published to a `/streams` section |
