For product managers and writers

Product docs your whole team can update.

Product managers and writers work in a visual editor; engineers can stay in GitHub. Preview every change, publish versioned docs with your branding, and keep translations in step.

Sound familiar?

Every edit waits for an engineer

The docs live in a code repository, so a one-line fix needs someone who knows Git.

Releases move faster than the docs

Customers on older versions read pages written for the newest one.

Translations drift

The English page changes and the other languages quietly fall out of date.

Editor

Write without learning Markdown.

Type / to add callouts, steps, tabs, cards, tables, code and images. Pages are still stored as Markdown, so nothing is locked in.

  • Leave review comments right on the text
  • Find any page, setting or action with ⌘K or Ctrl+K
  • A start-here checklist walks new projects from first page to first publish

Previews and versions

Publish with confidence.

Preview changes privately, publish when ready, and keep separate docs for each product version. Every publish is a snapshot you can roll back to.

  • Engineers can work in GitHub, with changes flowing both ways through pull requests
  • Each GitHub pull request gets its own preview link
  • Keep internal docs private and share them only with invited readers

Themes

Docs that look like your product.

Pick one of three reader layouts, Harbor, Manuscript or Signal, and add your logo, colors and custom domain.

  • Each theme comes in light and dark
  • Every theme works right to left
  • Switch themes without rewriting your content

Availability: Available on Nibleaf Cloud, and when you self-host v0.2.1 or later.

Languages

Keep every language in step.

Each language has its own page tree, and translated pages are linked so readers and search engines find the right one.

  • English and Arabic are first-class, right to left included
  • Add content in any other language
  • Your AI assistant can draft translations as drafts for review

Requirements: Self-hosters turn it on first; it is off by default. Available on Nibleaf Cloud, and when you self-host v0.2.1 or later.

  3. 03

    Publish

    Publish for the right product version and language. Roll back to an earlier publish if you need to.

Questions from product teams

Do product managers need to know Markdown or Git?

No. They write in the visual editor and publish from the browser. Pages are stored as Markdown behind the scenes, and engineers can use GitHub if they prefer.

Which Git providers are supported?

GitHub syncs both ways, with a dedicated branch, pull requests and previews. Public GitLab and other Git repositories can be imported one way.

Can several people edit the same page at once?

Nibleaf doesn’t offer live co-editing with shared cursors today. Teams use review comments, previews and GitHub pull requests to work together.

How do translations work?

Each language has its own page tree, and you link a page to its translations. Nibleaf doesn’t machine-translate pages itself; your AI assistant can draft a translation through MCP for you to review.

Can we keep some docs private?

Yes. Invite readers to private docs, or to single pages, separately from your dashboard team. This is not SAML or SCIM single sign-on.
