What is Phonemos:
Phonemos is a flexible and powerful wiki tool for teams, organizations, and companies, fully developed in Switzerland. It helps you centrally document knowledge, structure it clearly, and share it efficiently with your team.
With Phonemos, you can:
Create content quickly, structure it via a freely customizable menu, and easily find it again using the AI-powered search
Enrich pages with metadata and automatically generate filterable tables
Manage multiple instances with their own URLs and permissions
Manage and secure access for free via Single Sign-On (SSO)
Easily import or export content – with no vendor lock-in
Translate content directly within the app (via DeepL)
Logging in
To use Phonemos, you must first log in to your personal instance. The login page will appear as soon as you enter your personal Phonemos instance URL (e.g. https://wiki.companyname.cloud/) into your browser. The login works in all modern browsers: Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Safari.
There are two login options:
Login with Email & Password

If your instance is set up with Single Sign-On (SSO), you will automatically be redirected to your company’s login page – no separate password required.

First steps
By clicking the “Create” button, you can create a new Phonemos element – for example, a “Phonemos Page.”
The text editor in Phonemos works similarly to well-known text editors like Microsoft Word.
Additionally, you can use the “plus” icon in the upper middle-right area to insert various features that make editing easier.
