In their own words

Confluence

Confluence is Atlassian's workspace for knowledge management and project collaboration, with pages, whiteboards, databases and Loom video messaging. Teams can edit content together in real time, comment, and receive notifications when tagged or assigned tasks. Its Jira connection links project tracking with documentation planning, and whiteboards can turn ideas into Jira work. View-only pages can be shared publicly; version history, content analytics and app integrations are also available. Rovo can turn content into timelines, charts, maps, slides and prototypes, while its connectors bring knowledge from services including Google Drive, Slack, Salesforce, GitHub, Microsoft Teams and SharePoint into AI search and workflows. Cloud products are hosted, while Data Center products can run on infrastructure of your choice. The Free plan supports up to 10 users, includes 2 GB of storage and allows three active whiteboards per user. Confluence is available on web, Android, iOS and as self-hosted software. Pricing starts at $5.42/user/mo, and a 7-day trial is listed.

SwaggerHub

SwaggerHub provides API design, testing, documentation, and governance tools for software teams. Swagger Studio combines a visual editor with a shared API catalog for collaborative design, including work by contributors who do not code. It supports OpenAPI and AsyncAPI specifications, style guides, templates, reusable components, and centralized governance. Teams can generate mock servers to test endpoints and use contract or functional tests that integrate with CI/CD pipelines. Swagger Portal creates API documentation and onboarding guides, with branded portals and access controls. Listed integrations include GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps, AWS, Bitbucket, Gradle, and ReadyAPI. The product is available on the web or self-hosted, and lists role-based access, SSO, version history, and custom domains. Swagger Enterprise is described as deployable on-premise or in the cloud and includes dedicated support and account management. A free plan covers basic API design and documentation. Listed Team plans begin at $740 a year for one user, billed over 12 months; pricing is also available on request.
