API documentation tools
API documentation tools, compared for API teams.
How to evaluate API docs tools by the launch outcome that matters — generated reference, SDK examples, search, redirects, llms.txt — and where Sourced fits when docs and SDKs need to ship together.
Unlimited previews. No credit card required.
01Checks
What buyers should check
Custom-domain readiness, sitemap, redirects, and canonical handling.
Generated examples and SDK snippets.
Search, llms.txt, and AI/agent readability.
Publishing or release integration with SDK repos.
02Details
Where Sourced fits
Sourced is not trying to replace every knowledge-base workflow.
It fits startups that want API docs and SDKs to move together in one product.
It gives small teams a professional developer experience without hiring a docs platform team.
·Example output
A generation run shows the docs preview artifact shape.
A local fixture run produced index.html, versioned index, operation page, openapi-summary.json, versions.json, and llms.txt.
The preview includes a version directory and versions.json so versioning can be tested before hosting.
The fixture generated a per-operation page at /v1.0.0/operations/listmessages.html.
Generated docs include an agent-readable llms.txt artifact alongside the preview.
| Example | Why it matters | Current result |
|---|---|---|
| Docs preview report | Records title, version, base URL, operation count, schema count, routes, files, and warnings. | Example preview v1.0.0, 1 operation, 0 schema warnings. |
| Versioned docs files | Docs previews are structured so teams can review routes before custom-domain launch. | index.html, v1.0.0/index.html, v1.0.0/openapi-summary.json, v1.0.0/llms.txt, and operation pages. |
| SEO launch guardrails | Public site generation also emits sitemap, robots, llms.txt, canonical tags, JSON-LD, and Open Graph metadata. | Latest SEO audit checks every generated public page and sitemap URL with no errors or warnings. |
