We don’t believe AI will replace technical writers—our goal is to make it easier for teams to get a solid first draft that they can review, edit, and improve. Think of it as a head start, not a finished product.

More info on what we’ve built below but we wanted to release a quick, 1 minute, generate docs from your codebase tool. Try it out here: https://app.docs.dev/generate-docs-instantly.

We built this page, so folks could generate some docs easily and quickly on some of their open source projects. It is still new so let us know if there are bugs but feel free to give it a try! It should work on any moderately sized public repo on GitHub.

Why build another docs tool? We believe there are many great tools out there to help teams host their docs and make them look great, but that there aren’t enough tools to help teams manage the content that goes into them. We found that often there’s a disconnect between the devs shipping code and the teams managing the docs, often leading to delays in getting new features out the door or outdated docs. We kept hearing that the only thing worse than no docs is incorrect docs.

So, we built tools to help you manage docs directly from your codebase—no special platforms or vendor lock-in required. With docs.dev you can not only generate first drafts of new docs, but also audit your existing docs in bulk, analyze them for effectiveness, and keep everything up to date as the product changes.

docs.dev can: Work with any markdown-powered framework Generate clean markdown files synced with your GitHub repo Support existing markdown docs, your codebase, and even Slack threads as context

We’d love for you to check us out and welcome any feedback, criticism, suggestions, questions, or ideas! Thanks so much for reading!
