  "what": "A hosted documentation platform: write MDX and get a polished docs site with search, an API playground generated from an OpenAPI spec, and analytics. The CLI is source-available under Elastic-2.0 rather than a true open-source licence. The free Starter tier includes five editor seats.",
  "why": "The fastest path from zero to docs that look like Stripe's, with no build config to maintain. Worth it when docs are a product surface, unnecessary if a README will do.",
  "warn": "The only genuinely commercial tool in this list, and Pro is a steep $450/mo jump from free. You are renting hosting and lock-in — Fumadocs or Starlight are the self-hosted answers.",
