Mintlify
Mintlify is a documentation platform with an AI assistant and agents that keep docs updated, built for developer-facing products and AI agents reading docs.
About this tool
Mintlify hosts documentation for software companies, from startups to large enterprises, and positions it as knowledge infrastructure for both people and AI agents. Teams write docs that Mintlify publishes as fast, searchable sites, and the company says more than 20,000 organisations use it, including well-known AI and developer companies.
AI features include an assistant that answers readers’ questions using semantic and full-text search over your documentation, and agents that help keep content up to date as products change. Mintlify states that its third-party model providers do not train on customer data. Migration tools convert existing docs from Readme and Docusaurus automatically, and other sources can be moved with support.

Before you choose
The jump from the free Starter plan to Pro is large, so confirm which features you actually need.
