Use Cases
Start with the docs that drift every time code changes.
Connect the documents you use most and review them alongside code changes.
Generate onboarding documentation
Generate a draft explaining project structure and setup, then add team decisions and access procedures.
Onboarding documentation guideConnect GitHub and documentation
Connect repository changes to documentation and review the evidence and scope of proposed updates.
GitHub documentation guideFAQ
Everything you need to know before getting started.
What is Specify?
Specify automates developer documentation for small teams. Connect GitHub code changes to the relevant documents and review the supporting context and proposed updates.
How do I connect GitHub to documentation?
Connect a GitHub repository as a documentation project source and choose the documents to create. Check access and source scope, then compare generated documents with the current code. Later updates follow project settings and the applicable policy.
What should I check when updating API documentation?
Check request parameters, response fields, authentication, errors, examples, and compatibility. Compare the evidence and proposed changes with actual API behavior. Your team should supply design intent and migration timelines that are absent from the schema.
What does onboarding document generation help with?
Repository code and configuration support drafts explaining project structure, setup, and key functionality. Add access-request contacts and decisions not recorded in code, then ask a new developer to verify installation, execution, and tests.
Does it change documents automatically?
New projects start without automatic updates. You can review changes and their supporting context. Subsequent updates follow project settings and the applicable policy; low-risk changes may be automatically approved when automation is enabled.
Which documents can I start with?
It works seamlessly for API references, integration guides, Architecture Decision Records (ADRs), onboarding manuals, and release notes.
Do we need to replace our development workflow?
Not at all. Keep your existing GitHub repositories and documentation tools. Specify plugs right into your current flow.
Is our code and documentation secure?
All data runs on enterprise-grade AWS infrastructure with workspace-level isolation. We never train AI models on your code or docs.
How long does setup take?
Connect a GitHub repository, choose your sources and documents, and start generation. Setup and processing time depend on repository size, connection status, and selected documents. Begin with one document you use often.
Can I start for free?
Start with a free personal plan without a credit card. Documents are unlimited, with 100MB storage and basic AI usage. Explore Pro or Max for more personal AI usage, and Team for a shared team workspace.
Start with connected code and documentation.
Connect your GitHub repository and team documents, then review your first document and proposed updates.
