Continue to About ↓- What it does
- Mintlify is a hosted, Git-backed platform for building and publishing documentation websites — developer docs, API references, help centers and knowledge bases — from Markdown or MDX files stored in a repository.
More detail
- Mintlify handles hosting, search, navigation and the docs interface, and also serves the content to AI agents through Markdown, llms.txt and an MCP server.
- Best for
- Small-to-midsize developer and documentation teams that want a polished, hosted docs site with built-in search, custom domain and an interactive API playground without assembling a site generator, hosting and search stack themselves.
More detail
- Also fits teams that want their documentation readable by AI agents and mixed technical/non-technical editors working in the browser alongside engineers in Git.
- Pricing
- Starter is $0/month for up to five editor seats and includes hosting, search, a custom domain, the web editor, authentication, an MCP server and the API playground.
More detail
- Pro is $450/month billed annually or $540/month billed monthly, with unlimited editor seats plus AI features metered by credits: 10,000
- Main limitation
- Teams that need unlimited free editor seats, bundled SDK generation or a personalized developer portal (Mintlify's FAQ points buyers to evaluate those separately), or teams unwilling to adopt a Git-backed docs-as-code workflow.
