Today I’m excited to finally share Ferndesk! The first help center that never goes out of date.
At my last company, we shipped new product incredibly quickly. But as a small team, we never had the bandwidth to keep our docs up to date. We wanted to spend less time in support and more time growing the business, but our docs were a bottleneck.
So one year ago, I set out to build a docs platform that keeps up with you.
Today, Ferndesk saves 100+ SaaS teams 20-50 hours/mo on docs, and counting.
In year two, we're going to help 1,000.
I've been using Ferndesk at Senja since the beta and it's helped save our customer support person 100s of hours.
I fundamentally believe that most customers want to self-serve, and up-to-date docs makes that happen.
The chatbot feature also allows customers to get their questions answered using natural language.
As a result we can spend more time educating and delighting customers, and less time dealing with repeat issues.
The docs are are also beautiful.
Finally, on a personal note, as your ex-cofounder I am so happy to see you continue your journey, ship useful (and sexy looking) products, and grow as a business owner.
When I worked at Senja, docs was starting to become a bottle neck until Wilson decided to tackle it head on.
Ferndesk has grown into an amazing platform that keeps your docs up to date. Congrats on the launch, Wilson.

How should a team handle a feature that has merged into the codebase but is still behind a feature flag?
