Pages: compile pins into a readable document
How Pindown Pages work: a document-style format made of pins you read top to bottom, update once, and share without rebuilding a doc from scratch.
A Page in Pindown is a document-style format built from pins—not a single blob of text. You stack typed blocks (briefs, tables, charts, checklists) in reading order so people can scan a full story without losing the structure that makes each piece useful.
If you already understand pins, read the pin formats overview first. This guide is about the container: when to choose a Page, how it differs from a Pinboard or Pitch, and how to compose pins into something people actually read.

What a Page is
A Page is a vertical composition of pins. Each pin keeps its own type and config—a markdown brief behaves like a brief, a table behaves like a table—while the Page gives you order, context, and a shareable URL.
Updates stay atomic. Change the chart pin once and every Page that includes it reflects the new number.
When to use a Page
- Research briefs — intro, summary, pie or bar chart, comparison table, source links
- Specs and one-pagers — narrative plus structured requirements
- Internal memos — decisions, metrics, and next steps in one scroll
- Client-ready write-ups — polished enough to share, still built from reusable pins
Page vs Pinboard vs Pitch
| Format | Layout | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Page | Top-to-bottom reading flow | Briefs, specs, memos, compiled reports |
| Pinboard | Grid at a glance | Review, comparison, monitoring |
| Pitch | Tabbed, in-depth narrative | Fundraising, sales, board meetings |
For the grid alternative, see Pinboards. For a quick slide-style overview, see Showcase. For in-depth narrative, see Pitch.
Getting started
- Create or pick pins—intro, brief, chart, table, checklist, links.
- Create a Page and order pins for scanning: framing → context → evidence → actions.
- Ask AI from /home to draft the Page, then refine in the editor.
Frequently asked questions
Can I reuse the same pin on multiple Pages?
Yes. The same stat card or table can sit on a Page, a Pinboard, and inside a Pitch tab without copying data.
Should everything be one markdown pin?
Only if the whole thing is pure prose. Mixed Pages scan faster and give agents structured objects to update.
When should I use a Canvas instead?
Canvases are for spatial brainstorming. Pages are for linear reading once structure is clear.
