UptoDocs Documentation
UptoDocs is a GitHub App that keeps your documentation in sync with your code — automatically.
It watches code changes, detects when public behavior changes, and proposes small, reviewable documentation updates via pull requests.
No dashboards.
No auto-merging.
No surprises.
What Problem Does UptoDocs Solve?
Documentation goes stale because:
- Code changes frequently
- Developers forget to update docs
- Docs are usually updated last (or never)
- No one notices until users complain
Stale docs slow onboarding, confuse users, and create support burden.
UptoDocs solves this by making documentation updates part of the normal GitHub workflow.
What UptoDocs Does
When relevant code changes happen, UptoDocs:
- Analyzes the code diff
- Detects public-facing changes (APIs, components, configs)
- Updates or creates the relevant documentation
- Opens a pull request with only the necessary changes
- Requires human review before anything is merged
You stay in control at every step.
What UptoDocs Does NOT Do
UptoDocs is deliberately conservative.
- ❌ It does not rewrite your entire docs
- ❌ It does not auto-merge pull requests
- ❌ It does not hallucinate undocumented features
- ❌ It does not require a dashboard or UI
- ❌ It does not touch unrelated files
This is a maintenance tool, not a docs platform.
Core Principles
🔍 Small, Reviewable Changes
UptoDocs only proposes minimal diffs that are easy to review and trust.
🧑💻 Human Approval Required
Every change goes through a pull request. You decide what gets merged.
🛡️ Safety Over Cleverness
If UptoDocs is unsure, it does nothing or asks for confirmation.
🧠 Minimal AI Usage
AI is used only where helpful (phrasing, explanations), never as a source of truth.
Who Is UptoDocs For?
- Indie developers maintaining libraries or APIs
- Open-source maintainers dealing with contributor churn
- Startup teams that want accurate docs without extra process
- Teams that care about correctness and trust
If documentation matters to your users, UptoDocs fits.
Next Steps
Good documentation isn’t written once. It’s maintained.
UptoDocs helps you do that — automatically.
