I’ve been working with clients on their products for years now, and one thing that comes up in almost every project is documentation. Not writing it, that part is fine. The problem is everything around it: picking a framework, configuring the build, deploying it somewhere, keeping it alive as the product changes underneath it.
The docs go stale within weeks. Nobody notices until a customer complains. Someone fixes the one page, but three others are already wrong. There’s no system telling you what drifted, what’s missing, what’s outdated. Documentation is stateless. It has no awareness of itself.
That bothered me enough to build something about it. It’s called Typemark.
What it is ¶
A documentation platform for dev and product teams. You sign up, name your project, and your docs are live. Under three minutes, no build pipeline, no infrastructure to set up.
There’s a visual editor that feels like the published page, not a markdown preview pretending to be one. A source mode for when you want raw MDX. Every save is a Git commit with a real repo behind every project. You can connect your own GitHub for bidirectional sync, or just use our managed hosting and never think about Git at all.
It ships with dark mode, AI-powered search, custom domains, syntax highlighting, and all the components you’d expect: callouts, tabs, code groups, cards, steps, accordions, OpenAPI auto-generation.
I wrote more about it on the lightfulweb blog, you can also check Typemark Docs for full feature list (which will keep growing).
The real problem ¶
Getting docs online is solved. That’s table stakes. The harder problem is keeping them accurate over time. Every team I’ve worked with has experienced this: the docs launch looking great, and six months later half of them describe a product that no longer exists in that form.
This is what I’m most focused on. We’re building content intelligence directly into Typemark. AI that understands your entire documentation surface and tells you which pages are outdated, which guides have gaps, which API docs drifted from your actual endpoints. Not a chatbot on top of search. Something that actively helps your team maintain quality over time.
This is being baked in from the start, not bolted on later. The foundation is built with this in mind and it’s coming very soon.
Try it ¶
If you’re building something and need docs, give it a shot. I’d love to hear what you think.
