Writerside
The most powerful development environment, now adapted for writing documentation. Use a single authoring environment, eliminating the need for a wide array of tools. With the built-in Git UI, an integrated build tool, automated tests, and a ready-to-use and customizable layout, you can focus on what matters most, your content. You can now combine the advantages of Markdown with those of semantic markup. Stick to one format, or enrich markdown with semantic attributes and elements, Mermaid diagrams, and LaTeX math formulas. Ensure documentation quality and integrity with 100+ on-the-fly inspections in the editor as well as tests in live preview and during build. The preview shows the docs exactly as your readers will see them. Preview a single page in the IDE, or open the entire help website in your browser without running the build. Reuse anything, from smaller content chunks to entire topics or sections of your TOC.

Author-it
Author-it is an enterprise Component Content Management System (CCMS) with 25+ years in the structured authoring space. It helps regulated industries - manufacturing, software, utilities, aerospace, medical devices, financial services, and government - create, manage, review, translate, and publish content from a single source library.
Write a topic once. Reuse it across manuals, portals, training, compliance docs, and localised outputs - automatically. No DITA required. No XML expertise needed.
Author-it includes built-in translation workflow management, multi-stage review and approval, variant and conditional content, and AION - a structured JSON output format designed for direct LLM and RAG pipeline ingestion. Your content becomes your AI foundation, not just a document archive.
Proven ROI: $3M+ annual savings in manufacturing, 90% content reuse in enterprise software, and compliance-ready documentation across heavily regulated environments.

Docsio
Docsio is an AI-native documentation platform designed to turn existing product content into a fully structured, branded documentation site in minutes, eliminating the need for manual setup, coding, or deployment workflows. Users simply paste a website URL or upload source materials such as PRDs, specs, or internal documents, and an AI agent maps the entire product, extracts brand identity elements like colors, logos, and typography, and generates a complete documentation system including guides, feature pages, and API references. It emphasizes a “paste, generate, live” workflow, where the entire site is built in real time and can be previewed instantly before publishing. All content is editable through natural language using an integrated AI editor that can modify layout, navigation, styling, or text without requiring Markdown, Git, or CSS knowledge. Docsio includes built-in hosting with SSL, custom domain support, and one-click publishing.
