Introducing Playbook - a modern documentation platform that helps you create and publish docs your customers will love.

Hey Product Hunt community! 👋 My first launch here!
Introducing Playbook - a modern documentation platform that helps you create and publish docs your customers will love.
Documentation often becomes an afterthought - not because teams don't value it, but because the tools are cumbersome and take focus away from core development.
For too long, product teams have been stuck using support tools to handle documentation. These tools weren't built for this purpose - they're either too complex (forcing developers to maintain static site generators) or too simple (leaving non-technical team members unable to contribute). Documentation ends up scattered across wikis, support portals, and README files, creating a fragmented experience for users.
Playbook solves this by handling all the infrastructure complexity automatically while providing a dedicated home for documentation.
Teams can use Playbook for:
✅ Creating comprehensive API references that developers actually enjoy using
✅ Building beautiful product guides that reduce support tickets
✅ Launching with professional documentation from day one, enhancing credibility with early users
✅ Maintaining living changelogs that keep customers informed about new features
With Playbook, you can create and publish documentation in whatever way works best for your team. Write content directly on the platform using our intuitive editor, or connect your GitHub repository for seamless syncing. Use LLMs to generate documentation drafts, then connect your repo to Playbook and publish with a single click. No complex setup or technical knowledge required - just great documentation, published instantly.
With Playbook, teams can:
🚀 Focus on writing great content while the platform manages hosting, deployment, and infrastructure
🚀 Launch with a professional theme that builds trust with users
🚀 Publish updates instantly through a AWS' global CDN
Whether for a solo founder launching a first product or a growing startup, Playbook provides the tools to create documentation users will love, without wrestling with technical complexities.
Playbook is hot off the press and would love to hear your thoughts, suggestions, or answer any questions!
Cheers,
PD (Connect with me on X)

Playbook looks great, the integration with GitHub is great in that we would not have to move outside GitHub to edit the documentation.
Biggest question I have is if the published site can be "private" requiring username & password and possibly MFA to access the documentation?

@stuartxt great question. This is not supported out of the box but I've definitely been thinking about something like private docs. There's are some great use cases like internal company handbook, runbooks, private APIs, ebooks, etc. Are you looking for something specific?
@pd2905 Specifically looking to protect internal documentation.
I could consider integrating Auth0 if you have the ability to inject custom js in the same way as MkDocs

With custom code, you can use analytics tools like @Plausible Analytics or @Fathom Analytics to inject the snippet right into your site.
