What is DocsKoala
Last updated Jul 3, 2026
DocsKoala is a self-updating help center. It connects to your GitHub repository, watches for merged pull requests, and drafts new help articles (or updates to existing ones) whenever a customer-facing change lands in your codebase. A person on your team reviews and approves each draft before it goes live. Nothing publishes automatically.
Who it's for
DocsKoala is built for founders and small engineering teams who ship quickly and don't have a dedicated technical writer to keep documentation current. If your help center tends to fall behind what your product actually does, DocsKoala closes that gap by generating the first draft for you.
What you get
- A public help center for your customers, with articles organized by category and searchable.
- An embeddable widget you can drop into your own app so users can search docs and get AI-assisted answers without leaving your product.
- A Review Inbox where AI-drafted articles wait for your approval, edit, or dismissal.
Things to know
- DocsKoala never publishes a draft without a human clicking Approve.
- Articles can also be seeded from your existing site (a one-time import) or created manually, not only from merged PRs.
