What it is
ReadMe is a web service for publishing documentation to internal and external audiences. Its plans organize content by projects and published versions. Starter is free for everyone and includes one project, one published version, 24 hours of request history, and 24 hours of detailed logs. Pro keeps one project, adds unlimited published versions, and costs $250 a month when billed annually; it also includes the same 24-hour history and detailed logs. That plan combines multiple projects, aggregates documentation metrics, removes ReadMe branding, and adds user roles and access control, audit logs, SSO, OAuth, and more. ReadMe supports custom domains, single sign-on, version history, and content analytics. The maker is ReadMe, headquartered in San Francisco, California, United States. The listed platform is web, and a 14-day trial is listed.
