Redocly review

Redocly suits teams that treat docs as code. Pro costs $249 a month billed annually and includes unlimited seats, readers and Git contributors, 3 projects, unlimited pages, protected docs, interactive reference docs from OpenAPI, GraphQL and AsyncAPI, a mock server, a custom domain and per pull request previews from GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket or Azure DevOps. Guides can be written in Markdown or Markdoc, with React for custom pages. Scale at $729 a month billed annually adds SSO, platform RBAC, multi-product sites, an API catalog with scorecards, SDK generation in early access and removes Redocly attribution. The open source Redocly CLI lints and bundles API descriptions, and Redoc CE renders reference docs for free. The trade-off is entry price: there is no free hosted plan, and the browser editor is less central than in GitBook or Mintlify, so it fits teams already comfortable with Git.
