API references, code guidelines, product overviews and everything in between. GitBook helps you help your users with easy-to-publish, intuitive to use, highly searchable docs.
Technical briefs
Centralize decision-making in one place, from company wikis to engineering docs. Empower everyone to contribute constructively, regardless of team or technical ability.
GitBook was a huge upgrade from our legacy platform. We went from a confusing bottleneck to over 90 employees using the system regularly. Even better, pageviews have increased every month with our latest at 300,000!

CREATE
Never start from scratch
It’s easy to get up and running in GitBook—just sync with an existing Git branch or import from Confluence, Notion, GitHub, Dropbox Paper, and Google Docs. A powerful, real-time block editor lets you rearrange everything as you go with support for code blocks, images, tables and more.
Markdown or WYSIWYG
Ready-to-use templates
Multiple page imports
Nest and group pages
COLLABORATE
Engage across teams
Whether you’re pre-planning a release or collaborating on public docs, GitBook offers multiple ways for both technical and non-technical stakeholders to contribute. Get approvers to sign off, then open up for feedback from peers. Everyone works async—start discussions, tag teammates and thread comments. Consensus, reached.

REVIEW
Create a source of truth
Turn ideas into proposals, then allow collaborators to contribute through change requests (or direct editing). With Git Sync, you can maintain planning and product docs that are as updated as your codebase. Commit (and edit) without fear—your original content is protected and there’s a record of every change. It’s the Git you know, minus the complexity.
Git-like version control
Protect your main branch
Bi-directional Git sync
Conflict alerts
SECURE
Your content, your way.
Keep an internal archive detailing every product release, from first PR to final merge. And if you’re looking to empower partners, power users and external developers, visitor authentication allows you to share content, securely. The bottom line? You maintain complete control over who views your content (and when).
