Hey ProductHunt community! Thank you for hunting us, @noaheverett ! We’ve built Archbee, the documentation app for engineers. What does it do? Knowledge base for your team: - A powerful editor with classical text and special widgets like diagrams, Swagger, GraphQL, code editor, changelogs and more coming; - Your team’s content is organized in spaces with document trees and are deep searchable; - Modern UX, everything syncs in realtime; - Integrated to Slack for modern team workflows; A very special thanks to developer friends who we’ve been bugging the last few months, and the first 20 teams of our private beta, you rock! ❤️ Also @alex_circei , thank you for helping us make this happen! Have a question about Archbee? Drop it in the comments section, we’d love to hear your thoughts, feedback, ideas, suggestions or anything else!

@noaheverett @dragosbulugean Congrats for the launch! The product looks awesome! I remember you told me the story regarding the "Archbee" name, can you share it with the community? I think it is a pretty nice story.
Dragos Bulugean
@alex_circei Hahaha. I launched Archbee v1 last year as a software architecture diagramming solution (where arch comes from) and the UI had hexagons on the background (hexagonal bee hive) instead of the common square dots , so Archbee :D

Lack of documentation is always the most annoying thing when starting a new job. Hope companies start using this!
Dragos Bulugean
@dkb868 this is one of the big reasons we've built this 🚀. Thank you for appreciating it!
Dragos Bulugean
@dkb868 And let us know here or on our Intercom how you did you find the product after trying it :)

I really like that it is a new way to store our documentation for free, on our url. As a startup it is very hard to pay an expensive documentation service.

Pros:

I really like the UX and because it is free to store my documentation on my url.

Cons:

none

What is the difference between this and Confluence?
Dragos Bulugean
@cherata_george Great question! Confluence is a great product, and we are a great alternative :). That said, we believe we def have a better product that solves the same problem and another one (product docs) within the same great ONE user experience. We are realtime, and have special widgets for engineers, which seem to be the big target of Confluence :)
Adina Jipa
Love your website, guys 💛
Dragos Bulugean
@adinajipa Thank you Adina!! We hope you enjoy our UX!

Are you guys VC funded?
Dragos Bulugean
@oana_smeureanu haha, no. we are bootstrapped, but we plan to take on a seed round soon. but I'm glad somebody would think this is VC funded :)

I really love the diagram widget is the perfect replacement for the old flow of making a diagram in drawio export it, then upload an image, then realize you need to edit it >(

Pros:

You can embebed a Swagger or GraphQL API The widget to make diagrams is super fast!

Cons:

none

Easy to use, very user friendly and does exactly what it is supposed to!

Pros:

Great design, built with a right understanding of what's necessary in the doc organization process.

Cons:

None so far!

Tanase Oana
any plans to generate some docs based on the git projects? like some diagrams or the release history
Dragos Bulugean
@tanase_oana yes, we have this in the backlog: make a persistence backend that stores into git rather than into our current database. we will build it as soon as a customer has a real use case and asks us for it :)
Sumit Sahoo

Excellent

Pros:

The best documentation app i've ever seen. I will 100% recommend Archbee to all the engineers out there!

Cons:

None

Iulian Popescu
