Full review
Mintlify is an AI-native documentation platform with strong defaults, API playgrounds, and smart search. Its agent syncs with GitHub or GitLab to detect code changes and suggest or apply documentation updates.
It is trusted by leading AI companies and reaches millions of developers. It is most valuable for developer-facing docs; for those teams it removes much of the drift between code and documentation.
