AI-powered CMS core for personal blogs and creator websites, offering integrated AI content workflows such as summarization, translation, moderation, and writing assistance. It targets independent developers and content creators seeking a self-hostable, extensible backend with multi-provider LLM support, providing a robust infrastructure for content management and AI-enhanced publishing.

How It Works

MX Space Core is a headless CMS backend built on NestJS and TypeScript, designed to power personal blogs and creator websites. It integrates a comprehensive AI content workflow, enabling features like AI-driven content generation, summarization, translation, and moderation. The architecture supports multiple LLM providers (OpenAI, Anthropic, OpenRouter, compatible) and handles AI responses through streaming and task-based processing, facilitating seamless integration into content creation pipelines. Its monorepo structure separates core services, API clients, and webhook SDKs.
