Documentation.AI
Documentation and knowledge base platform with an AI agent that drafts updates from code, tickets and feedback for approval.
Documentation.AI is a platform for writing, publishing and maintaining product docs, API references, help centers and knowledge bases. Its Documentation Agent reads code changes, support tickets and reader feedback, then drafts edits that a person approves before anything goes live. Documentation.AI also gives readers an AI assistant with cited answers and exposes docs to AI tools through MCP and llms.txt.
Best for Software teams whose documentation falls behind the product and who want proposed updates generated automatically but reviewed by a human.

What is Documentation.AI?
Documentation.AI is a documentation platform designed to keep content current with less manual work. Authors can write in a block-based web editor with slash commands or follow a docs-as-code approach, keeping Markdown and MDX files in Git with branches, pull requests and preview builds; both routes publish the same site. Workflows start on a schedule or when a pull request merges. In each run the agent reviews commits, tickets and feedback, prepares draft changes and reports what it altered and why, leaving acceptance to the team. Published docs include an interactive API playground generated from OpenAPI specs, an Ask AI assistant that cites its sources, page-level feedback and analytics. Access can be restricted with SSO, JWT or OAuth. For machine readers, the platform generates llms.txt and provides MCP servers. Connectors cover GitHub, GitLab, Jira, Confluence, Slack, Linear and Intercom.
Key Features
Documentation Agent
Reads code changes, tickets and feedback in the background and drafts page updates with a summary of each run.
Two Authoring Modes
Supports a visual web editor and Git-synced Markdown or MDX, both feeding one published site.
Ask AI Assistant
Answers reader questions inside the docs with citations and a confidence score.
API Playground
Builds reference pages from an OpenAPI file and lets readers send test requests and copy code samples.
MCP Servers and llms.txt
Makes docs readable by external AI tools and lets writers author from Cursor or Claude Code.
Analytics and Feedback
Tracks page views, search terms and ratings, and flags questions the assistant answered with low confidence.
How Documentation.AI works

Agent drafts in the background
The agent goes through recent code, tickets and feedback and writes the proposed changes.
Review and approve
You receive a summary and changed files, then accept or reject them before publication.
