The problem
It describes the project from 6 months ago. New devs follow it and hit errors immediately.
Or it's a list of git hashes. Nobody knows what changed or why.
Because the only documentation is in someone's head, and that person is on vacation.
The fix
Pushpen installs a webhook on your repo. Every time you push, it reads the diff, writes the docs, and opens a PR. You review it, merge it, done. Your documentation stays current automatically — forever, not just today.
You stay in control. Always.
Pushpen never writes directly to your codebase. Every doc update comes as a pull request — you review it, approve it, merge it. Or ignore it. No surprises.

Process
Connect your repo
OAuth into GitHub, one-click install. Done in 30 seconds.
Push your code
Work exactly as you do today. Nothing changes.
Pushpen reads the diff
AI analyzes what actually changed — not just commit messages.
Docs are written
README, changelog, API docs, onboarding guide. All four.
PR opened for review
You approve and merge. You stay in control.
Features
Four doc types. All generated from your actual code. All kept current automatically.
Auto-generated from your actual code. Updates when your code updates. New devs can follow it without hitting errors.
Commit messages turned into plain English. What changed, why it matters, when it happened.
Endpoints, parameters, request/response shapes — extracted from your codebase, not written by hand.
The most underrated feature. A living document explaining how your codebase works, updated every time the architecture changes. Cut onboarding from weeks to days.
Social proof
"We saved three client integration calls this quarter because our API docs were actually accurate. That's 6 engineer-hours we got back."

"New engineer was productive in 4 days instead of 3 weeks. The onboarding guide Pushpen generates is better than anything we would have written manually."

"I ship solo. I was spending 2 hours a week on docs. Now I spend zero. The changelog alone is worth the subscription."

Objection handling
Every time you want to update docs, you need to paste in your code, explain what changed, and prompt carefully. Pushpen already knows what changed — it read the diff.
The only docs that stay current are docs that update automatically. A tool you have to remember to use is a tool you'll stop using.
Pushpen is always on. It runs on every push, forever, without you thinking about it. That's not something you can replicate with a chat window.
