- Release notes ready to share with clients
- Answers without asking an engineer
Why they’re different
Mintlify is for the developers who integrate with your product, your customers basically. API references, SDK guides, code samples. Specsight is for your own team: how your product behaves and changes, read from your code. Mintlify documents the API you expose. Specsight watches the product you build
How they fit together
Many companies need both. Mintlify handles developer-facing API docs at docs.yourcompany.com. Specsight handles the internal product spec your team uses to understand what shipped
Frequently asked questions
Not directly. Mintlify is for technical documentation aimed at developers: API references, SDK guides, integration tutorials. Specsight is product observability for non-engineers. They cover different jobs and many companies need both
No. Specsight keeps your internal product spec, plus release notes you can publish for customers. For a polished public docs site at docs.yourcompany.com with API references, Mintlify is the right tool
Nothing has to be remembered. Specsight re-reads what changed in the code on every release and updates the picture itself. There is nothing to keep up to date, because nothing was written by hand in the first place
