@GammaApp uses GitBook to power their developer docs — serving fast, clean, and up-to-date information to LLMs and their users.
Learn why hundreds of teams trust GitBook for documentation that's ready for AI: https://t.co/RDiw6QNjEV
Most teams spend a lot of time on the words in their docs, and not much time on anything else.
But structure, hierarchy, and visual consistency have a real effect on whether readers trust your docs, find what they need, and come back.
We put together 5 concrete things that consistently make the biggest difference — from getting your information architecture right before touching the customization panel, to why landing pages should always be built last.

Agent-ready docs doesn't only mean having an MCP server. It also means having SKILL.md file — Markdown that tells agents how to actually use your product.
We broke down the difference between the two, and how teams are combining them to build docs that AI agents can actually act on.

Most doc rewrites fail because teams migrate the mess instead of fixing it.
Frends scrapped everything and rebuilt from scratch — and redefined what docs are even for.

Most docs teams already have the data leadership wants — they just haven't surfaced it.
Only 11–12% track business outcomes. The signal is in your search logs, support tickets, and product analytics.

The State of Docs Report goes deep on trends. This year we also recorded the conversations behind it.
Introducing the State of Docs podcast — and our latest episode is now live ↓
We talked with Shahed Nasser, Head of DX at @medusajs, about:
— measuring docs impact (hint: not page views)
— why the best docs feedback isn’t about your docs
— AI as a lens for finding knowledge gaps

What if your AI assistant had full context on your product, gave users personalized answers and code snippets — and helped you spot the gaps in your docs while it was at it?
With GitBook Assistant, you don't have to imagine. You just have to ask.
Agent traffic is still on the rise — and it just crossed a new threshold.
AI agents now account for 51.8% of intentional reads across GitBook-hosted docs. Up from less than 10% in January 2025.
For the first time, they outnumber humans.
