About
Docny brings the tools needed to create and maintain developer documentation into one platform.
Teams can write documentation using a visual WYSIWYG editor, customize the look and feel of their documentation site, connect a custom domain, and publish their docs without managing a separate deployment workflow. Docny also supports analytics, templates, search, and integrations with tools including GitHub, Jira, Slack, Notion, Intercom, Linear, Discord, and Algolia.
Its AI capabilities are built around the documentation workflow. Docny Guardian can read a GitHub repository and generate structured documentation based on how the product actually works, while AI Chat allows visitors to ask questions directly from a published documentation site.
Docny is designed for engineering, technical writing, and developer advocacy teams that need to keep documentation aligned with a rapidly changing product. The platform says teams can go from signup to a live documentation site with a custom domain in under five minutes.
