Redocly · Austin, Texas, USA · founded 2018
What it is
Redocly is a suite for API documentation, developer experiences, collaboration, and API governance. Redoc creates API reference documentation from OpenAPI definitions, with automatic code samples, mock servers, and interactive testing through Replay. Reunite provides editing, visual reviews, remote content, deployment previews, and an audit trail, with connections to GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps, or Redocly’s native Git solution. The open-source Redocly CLI validates, lints, and bundles OpenAPI definitions, while a VS Code extension helps write and maintain those documents and displays definition warnings. Reef supplies a searchable internal API catalog with metadata, scorecards, and discovery features. Respect monitors APIs against an OpenAPI specification and can alert through Slack or email. Redocly says it uses TLS 1.2+ in transit, AES-256 at rest, and has completed a SOC 2 Type II audit. Pro is $10 per seat/month; Enterprise is $24 per seat/month. A 30-day trial and free API-documentation launch are available.
