In their own words

DocPlatform

DocPlatform is a git-native documentation platform offered as self-hosted software or a managed cloud service. Its two-way sync turns web edits into git commits and brings repository pushes into the interface. The Tiptap-based WYSIWYG editor writes Markdown and supports tables, code blocks, image embeds, and callouts. Teams can publish sites with themes, versioning, and SEO optimization, while built-in FTS5 provides full-text search without an external search service. Git sync works with GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, or any git remote. A built-in MCP server connects with clients including Claude, Cursor, and VS Code over local stdio or cloud HTTPS. The self-hosted Community Edition is free and includes unlimited editors, workspaces, and pages; the cloud Free plan allows one workspace, three editors, and 50 published pages. Cloud Team costs $29 a month and includes three workspaces, 15 editors, and 150 pages per workspace. Business is listed at $79 a month as coming soon.
