What is DocuPil and how does it work?

DocuPil is an AI tool that crawls your website URL, generates structured Markdown docs (guides, APIs, FAQs), and publishes them with search and themes. Three steps: crawl, generate, edit/publish.

Is DocuPil accurate for complex apps?

It nails basics on clean sites but hallucinates details and misses edge cases in dynamic or auth-heavy apps. Expect heavy editing.

DocuPil pricing: Worth it for solo devs?

Starts at $5/mo with a free trial. Good for quick starts, but limits hit fast on bigger projects — test before committing.
