    Hey HN, my wife and I ran a software development agency for 8 years, and sold it recently to work on some products related to our experience, and Userdoc is our first product :) Userdoc is a requirements management tool with AI assistance, allowing you to easily create user stories, personas, and user journeys with AI assistance. We found managing requirements (especially on large systems) was quite tricky, so Userdoc acts as the source of truth for your software requirements, and integrates with your project management tools to sync your stories, but keep them centrally in Userdoc as living…

    In my 15+ years as a developer, one of the most frustrating problems I've seen across teams is outdated documentation. I’ll be honest, I skip it myself. You ship a feature and move on. Then a month later, someone is onboarding or debugging and runs into stale docs that no longer reflect the code. I tried fixing this with tools like Swagger and Sphinx-autodoc, but they only work for narrow use cases like OpenAPI or annotations. They don’t help with the high-level stuff like onboarding tutorials, SDK guides, or user-facing examples. You still have to keep things like docstrings in sync, and…

    I got fed up with Notion, so I built my dream document editor. It's all markdowned so it's easy to view skills or other agent-related documents. It's got the collaboration features I love from Figma (shared cursory and the ability to follow) and Google Docs (comments, realtime editing). Then you can export the diff and comments to an agent. I've been really liking it for talking over skill documents live on a call. I'm curious if this resonates with other people. More generally, I feel like notion is less and less relevant in an age where documents have a very different purpose and Markdown…

    Hey HN, I'm the founder of Ninjadoc AI. I've spent years working with document processing, and I've always been frustrated by the existing solutions for structured data extraction. The core problem is that most tools force you into one of two bad options: Template-based extractors: You define fixed regions or rules. These are incredibly brittle and break the moment a document layout changes slightly (e.g., a new invoice template from a vendor). ML-based extractors: These require you to gather hundreds (sometimes thousands) of your own labeled documents to train a custom model for each…

    I’ve been working on Code2Docs, an open-source CLI tool that helps developers automatically generate inline documentation (docstrings + comments) for Python code using AI. It’s built to solve a common problem I’ve faced (and seen often in teams): We code by "vibe" — fast iterations, minimal docs, and then forget what the logic was months later. Code2Docs helps bridge that gap by documenting as you go — without breaking your flow. Right now it supports function-level documentation. Planned features include: - README.md generation for projects - API endpoint docs - Database schema…

    We built StrideDoc, a SaaS application, that lets you capture each step of a software workflow as you go and instantly generate an interactive demo guide. No more manual screenshots or writing out steps—just click through your process, annotate as needed, and share the result. We’d appreciate feedback from anyone who’s struggled with demo creation or documentation.
