How does the blog work with Basecamp?

You write blog posts in Basecamp's Message Board — the same tool your team already uses. Can Do picks up your messages and publishes them as blog posts on your own custom domain. No new editor to learn, no extra logins.

Can anyone on my team write blog posts?

Yes! Anyone with access to the designated Basecamp project can write and contribute posts. An admin handles the initial setup, but day-to-day writing is open to your whole team.

Can I use my own domain for the blog?

Absolutely. Can Do publishes your blog to a custom domain you own — like blog.yourcompany.com. Your readers see your brand, not ours.

Do I need any coding or technical knowledge?

Not at all. If you can write a message in Basecamp, you can publish a blog post. Can Do handles all the technical details — hosting, formatting, and publishing — behind the scenes.

What happens to my blog if I cancel Can Do?

Your original content stays safe in Basecamp — it's just regular Basecamp messages. The public-facing blog would go offline, but none of your writing is ever lost.

Is Can Do secure?

Yes. Can Do connects through Basecamp's official API using secure OAuth authentication. We don't store your Basecamp data, and all communication is encrypted.

How does pricing work for the blog?

The blog is included in your Can Do subscription. You only pay per admin or account owner — the rest of your team can write and contribute at no extra cost.

Can I have both a blog and a knowledge base?

Yes! Both tools are included in your Can Do subscription. Many teams use the blog for updates and announcements, and the knowledge base for documentation and FAQs.
