Their Pitch
The intelligent documentation platform.
Our Take
It's a documentation builder for developer tools. You write in simple text files, it creates a fancy website that looks like you hired a design team.
Deep Dive & Reality Check
Used For
- +**Your support team gets the same API questions 50 times a day** → Interactive examples let developers test calls right in the docs
- +**You're copy-pasting API changes into 6 different doc pages manually** → AI agent updates everything automatically when your code changes
- +**Developers abandon your tool because they can't figure out the setup** → Clean themes and smart navigation actually guide people through onboarding
- +Connects directly to your code repository - docs update when you push changes, no separate publishing step
- +Password protection for stealth mode - show docs to investors without going public
Best For
- >Your API docs look like they were written in 1995 and developers keep asking basic questions
- >You're launching soon and need professional-looking docs without hiring designers
- >Your team is drowning in doc maintenance and you want robots to help
Not For
- -Solo developers or tiny teams - the setup assumes you're already using proper code repositories and workflows
- -Anyone wanting detailed user feedback systems - the comment features are basically useless for tracking issues
- -Teams that need transparent pricing - everything beyond basic is custom quotes and mystery add-ons
Pairs With
- *GitHub (where your actual documentation files live and get updated by your development team)
- *OpenAPI/Swagger (auto-generates all your endpoint documentation so you don't manually write API references)
- *Stripe (the gold standard for what developer docs should look like - Mintlify helps you get there)
- *Vercel (for hosting the actual website that gets built from your documentation)
- *Slack (where your team celebrates not answering the same integration question for the 100th time)
The Catch
- !The feedback widget requires your code to be publicly visible on GitHub, which kills it for most companies
- !Analytics are surprisingly basic - you can't even see which pages are actually helpful vs confusing
- !Add-ons like password protection cost extra but pricing is hidden until you're already interested
Bottom Line
Turns your messy developer docs into something that doesn't make users want to scream.
