Mintlify
Documentation platform with built-in analytics and AI features; now positioning toward agents and self-updating documentation.
MDX-based docs from a Git repo with hosted previews, an interactive API playground generated from OpenAPI, and built-in AI surfaces: an assistant, llms.txt output, and agent-readable pages. Analytics show search terms and page engagement so you can see where readers get stuck. The current default for polished startup developer docs.
