Mendable is an AI-powered search engine developed by SideGuide that is designed to help developers answer their questions automatically. It is easily deployable with just one line of code and is backed by Y Combinator. Mendable provides customized answers based on a user’s documentation, and it continuously improves over time by aggregating feedback. It offers integrations with Discord, Slack, Github, and more, with the ability to add a chat-powered search bar anywhere in a user’s documentation or website. Additionally, Mendable provides reporting insights to help identify blockers and improve the developer experience. It is currently available for free with open source projects and offers a free trial for non-open source projects. It does not currently look at any of a user’s repository’s code, but this may be added in the future with users having the option to opt out of sharing their data. Mendable is currently closed source, but is considering moving towards an open-source model.
