What Redocly is

Redocly provides tools for API documentation, collaboration, developer experiences, and API governance. Redoc builds API reference documentation from OpenAPI definitions, with automatic code samples, mock servers, and interactive testing through Replay. Reunite offers editing, visual reviews, remote content, and deployment previews with an audit trail; it connects to GitHub, GitLab, Azure DevOps, or Redocly’s native Git option. The open-source Redocly CLI validates, lints, and bundles OpenAPI definitions, while a VS Code extension helps write and maintain them and flags definition errors. Reef provides a searchable internal API catalog with metadata, scorecards, and discovery features. Respect monitors APIs against an OpenAPI specification and can send Slack or email alerts. Redocly says it protects data in transit with TLS 1.2+ and data at rest with AES-256, and has completed a SOC 2 Type II audit. API docs can be launched for free, and the full product suite has a 30-day trial. Pro is $10 per seat/month, billed monthly; Enterprise is $24 per seat/month, billed monthly.
