The origin of names is helpful when learning about a tool and how to use it. Boto3, the Python 🐍 SDK for AWS, was named after a dolphin 🐬that swims in the Amazon River.

Beyond excited to announce @mintlify's $18M Series A led by Andreessen Horowitz.

Since launching the product less than two years ago, we’ve grown to power the documentation for thousands of the fastest growing startups including Anthropic, Perplexity, Cursor, Pinecone, Zapier, and over 20% of the previous YC batch.

Today, content powered by Mintlify reaches over 20 million developers a year and is growing fast.

It’s been a crazy journey, but it’s just the beginning.

Excited to be working alongside @JenniferHli and @stuffyokodraws from a16z

I found my way as a high school dropout, writes @RLSWrites. Could I still do the same today?

I'm throwing an Austin DevRel meetup on Oct 12th at Radio Coffee. Here's an RSVP to put it on your calendar with more details: https://t.co/E67wgHOWCF

Please share!

[Anne Gentle @annegentle]

@hahnbeelee My jaw literally dropped. 😮😆

[Anne Gentle @annegentle]

Wow! 🤩

[Mintlify @mintlify]

Why it matters:

Good API spec docs tools with user-friendly design are difficult to build and hard to come by. We wanted to change that.

API Playground is one of our core offerings, so when it came to upgrading our API pages for better API docs-building, we had to start there.

[Anne Gentle @annegentle]

Wow! Beyond exciting.

[Chuck Robbins @ChuckRobbins]

I’m thrilled to announce @Cisco’s intent to acquire @Splunk, a leader in cybersecurity and observability. Learn more about how, together, we’ll help make organizations more resilient and secure in an AI-powered world: https://t.co/yM7PtzmQ6a

Great dev docs story here ⏬

[Mintlify @mintlify]

"If you want your docs to be good, shouldn't you build them from scratch?"

We like to learn from the best, so we asked @zenorocha

Zeno built docs in-house for @WorkOS, but decided to build with Mintlify for his newest company @resendlabs

Read why: https://t.co/GJ8jNRXPRg
