What Is Documate?

Documate is an open-source tool that adds AI chat to documentation websites. Visitors can ask questions directly and get answers based on the site’s own content. The interface is fully customizable, and Documate integrates with popular platforms like VitePress, Docusaurus, and Docsify — no AI or language model expertise required. You keep complete control over your code and data, deciding exactly what information the AI uses to answer questions.
