In their own words

ReadMe

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.

Zuplo

Zuplo is an API management platform with API Gateway, AI Gateway, and MCP Gateway products. API protections include API keys, JWT, Basic Auth, mTLS, bot detection, rate limiting, and schema validation. OpenAPI supports documentation and cataloging, and every plan includes a hosted developer portal that can use a customer domain. The AI Gateway routes requests among OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, and Mistral, and offers semantic caching, prompt injection protection, secret masking, and spending budgets. MCP Gateway is included on every plan for authenticating, routing, and governing MCP servers. Documented logging integrations include AWS CloudWatch, Datadog, Dynatrace, New Relic, Google Cloud Logging, Loki, Splunk, Sumo Logic, and VMware Log Insight. Zuplo says its gateways deploy to more than 300 edge locations; self-hosted or dedicated deployment is available. GitHub GitOps is supported on Free and Builder, while Enterprise lists GitHub, Bitbucket, GitLab, and Azure DevOps. Free costs nothing and includes up to 100K monthly requests. Builder costs $25 a month, with additional requests charged at $100 per 100K.
