    The ReadMe Documentation Management Tool

     Info
    Sold by: ReadMe 
    Deployed on AWS
    Free Trial
    Interactive developer hubs that are easy to customize and maintain. Get professional quality docs that make your APIs simpler to use.

    Overview

    ReadMe powers interactive developer hubs that help users succeed with your APIs. Enable developers to make their first call faster, quickly troubleshoot their issues along the way, and get insights into API usage to focus your team on the highest-impact improvements.

    With ReadMe, teams can quickly create and launch a developer hub that matches their brand. After syncing their OpenAPI Spec file or manually documenting their API, anyone can write content or make edits directly in the ReadMe platform, reducing engineering bottlenecks and saving them time on maintenance. Behind the scenes, visibility into real-time API usage allows you to see which endpoints are most popular or where developers might be getting stuck, so your team can identify where to make improvements or add more guidance.

    Highlights

    • Interactive API Reference w/ Realtime metrics - our 'Try It' playground offers auto-generated code snippets for users to jumpstart their integrations, and shareable links for every API request make it easy to debug issues or get support
    • Recipes - a simple way to walk developers through a code sample step by step to help them get started with your APIs faster.
    • Owlbot AI - Search powered by OpenAI

    What do you like best about the product?
    Super easy to use!
    Suggested Edits are cool.
    Building a professional landing page is a breeze.
    Powerful API insights.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    I think probably b/c it's built to be SO easy to use, it's a bit less flexible and grows feature-rich more slowly. Having said that, it's made strides recently!
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    All-in-one documentation for products is what every tool in this market must offer today. ReadMe fits that description, enabling user guides, prod docs, help center layout, API docs and some customizability

    Buggy Editor and Terrible Search

    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    - Easy to get started
    - Theme Customizations
    What do you dislike about the product?
    - For a docs product it has a outrageously buggy editor. Yes I understand buidling WYSIWYG editor is hard but come on, all the menu UI elements keep erractically jumping around. Cannot indent or dendent things correctly
    - Terrible Keyword based search in 2024. 9/10 times search results are incorrectly ranked.
    - Does not support hosting arbitrary static HTML pages - E.g. generated from Python Sphinx or Mkdocs
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

    Great support, great company, great for API docs, not the best for general user docs

    Review provided by G2
    What do you like best about the product?
    The support is wonderful and I really enjoy how easy it is to add team members. The mascot is really enjoyable and in general it gets the job done. Easy to implement.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Lack of collaboration tools, no content resuse tools, hard to work with images and no options to put inline etc. They're constantly improving their API doc tools but really little focus on general user doc needs despite many recommendations over the years. Some features that are entreprise only -- seems really unfair they don't offer the ad hoc. Global search and pdf download options should not be exclusive to enterprise because the cost is so different.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Public user documentation without the need for Github

    What do you like best about the product?
    It's user interface and display is aesthetically nice and intuitive as it's easy to navigate through features.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    I think ReadMe has a lot of great features that are just gated for higher subscriptions -- too pricey.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    Streamlining the company's internal API documents for devs and client's use.

    Great product, easy to use...but can get expensive quick.

    What do you like best about the product?
    Start using day 1, very easy to implement.Also easy to customize to fit your needs and your goals.
    What do you dislike about the product?
    Built for small and medium sized companies. If you need additional segments, multiple sets of API documentaton it can get VERY EXPENSIVE.

    Also, product support is non existent for lower tiers. Not a bad thing, but something to think about when selecting your package.
    What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
    We had API documentation that was dissagregated and provided only informaiton about end points, little to know business value. Read.me helped us build an community around our API documetnaton for our technical users.
