Modern documentation platform for product and API docs
GitBook is a documentation platform for creating and publishing beautiful, structured docs — product documentation, developer/API references, internal wikis, and knowledge bases. It pairs a clean block editor with a Git-based workflow (two-way sync with GitHub/GitLab), so writing docs can live alongside code and follow docs-as-code practices. GitBook is especially popular for public developer and API documentation, offering interactive API playgrounds, versioning, and AI features that let both readers and AI tools query the content.
The platform blends authoring, publishing, and AI. A modern editor with reusable blocks and page structure makes docs easy to write and maintain; two-way Git sync keeps docs versioned with rollback; and custom domains, SEO, and theming produce a polished published site. GitBook adds interactive API playgrounds, page analytics, an MCP server and LLM optimizations so AI tools can read your docs, and a GitBook AI Agent/Assistant that answers questions from your documentation. Its focus on developer-friendly, AI-ready documentation differentiates it from general wikis.
GitBook serves software companies, developer-tools teams, and organizations publishing product and API docs. Pricing is per site plus per editor: a Free plan (1 user, publish on a gitbook.io subdomain, limited AI), a Premium plan around $65/site/month (billed annually) with custom domains and AI, an Ultimate plan around $249/site/month, and custom Enterprise, with additional editors around $12/user/month. It competes with Mintlify, ReadMe, Document360, and Notion, differentiating on developer-focused docs with Git sync, API playgrounds, and AI.
