In their own words

Paligo

Paligo is a cloud-based component content management system for creating, managing, translating, and publishing technical documentation and knowledge assets. Structured authoring includes topic-based content, reuse, variables, version branching, revision history, and workflow management. Teams can publish to PDF, HTML5, eLearning, and GitHub Flavored Markdown. Paligo says it serves organizations in software, manufacturing, and regulated industries managing technical documentation, policies, procedures, and other knowledge content. Listed integrations include Zendesk, Freshdesk, GitHub, GitLab, Amazon S3, Slack, Salesforce, ServiceNow, and Phrase; some may require a separate subscription. A REST API supports external connections and task automation. Paligo states its information security management system is certified to ISO 27001:2022, and that service data is encrypted at rest with AES-256 and in transit with TLS. Business costs $15,000 a year, billed annually per author, from $15,000 per year; it includes two authors and two languages. There is no free plan, but a free trial is available. Upload integrations have a 500 MB limit, except GitHub at 100 MB; the general limit can be raised on request.
