In their own words
ApiNotes
ApiNotes turns OpenAPI and Swagger specifications into hosted interactive documentation and a changelog that alerts teams to breaking changes. It accepts OpenAPI 3.0, 3.1, and 3.2, plus Swagger 2.0, in YAML or JSON. Generated references show endpoint parameters, response schemas, code samples in more than 10 programming languages, and a Try-It-Now console. Users can paste, upload, or link a specification and publish documentation at an ApiNotes subdomain. A GitHub Action can publish an updated specification on merge, while the Team plan lists pull request comments about breaking changes. Starter is free and limited to one public API, the last 10 changelog releases, 25 subscribers, and one team member. Team costs $19 a month and includes five APIs, private docs, full changelog history, unlimited subscribers, a custom domain, and five team members. The Team plan has a 14-day trial with no credit card required. Additional APIs are listed at £5/API; Postman, Bruno, and Insomnia integrations are marked as coming soon.
Palt
Palt is a hosted API documentation platform for creating, publishing, and managing interactive reference material from OpenAPI specifications. Import OpenAPI or Swagger JSON and YAML files for OpenAPI 3.0 and later, then let readers try endpoints in a browser-based console. Palt also generates code samples in cURL, JavaScript, Python, Go, and more. A visual editor offers custom colors, fonts, dark mode, HTTP-method colors, and company logos; endpoint search includes keyboard shortcuts. Published documentation can use a custom domain or be embedded in an existing site. Custom domains are free and include automatic SSL. The Free plan costs nothing and includes 3 projects, a custom domain, the Try It playground, and basic analytics. Pro costs $19 a month per project and adds branding removal, custom CSS, advanced analytics, and priority support. Enterprise pricing is custom and includes SSO, audit logs, an SLA guarantee, and dedicated support. Palt says it does not store API keys or sensitive request data.
