Product overview
What is Komment?
Komment is an automated software-documentation platform for engineering teams. A user connects a code repository, starts a documentation job or schedule, and receives a dedicated wiki portal with usage instructions, API references, architecture views, implementation details, security insights, examples, and in-code comments. The system watches code changes and regenerates documentation when code and docs diverge.
Komment combines AI with static analysis, purpose-built heuristics, and multiple QA layers. Teams can centrally control documentation tone, depth, format, freshness, and coverage. Hosted SaaS and private-cloud deployment options are described, with code processing kept inside the chosen deployment for privacy-focused organizations.
How to Use Komment
- Sign in with email or a supported git account.
- Connect the repository that needs documentation.
- Choose the documentation types, style, depth, and coverage.
- Run Quickstart for the first wiki or configure a recurring schedule.
- Review generated architecture, API, security, and implementation material against the code.
- Keep synchronization enabled and review documentation changes with code changes.
Core Features
- Self-healing wiki: Re-documents software when repository changes create drift.
- API documentation: Describes endpoints, requests, responses, status codes, and errors.
- Architecture diagrams: Generates and updates system-level codebase views.
- Implementation details: Explains business logic with examples and snippets.
- Security insights: Traces data and module relationships for monitoring and planning.
- In-code comments: Adds contextual annotations to relevant code entities.
- Central standards: Controls style and coverage across teams and repositories.
- Private deployment: Supports deployment inside selected cloud infrastructure.
Use Cases
- Developer onboarding: Give new engineers an updated explanation of unfamiliar code.
- Legacy modernization: Recover knowledge from poorly documented systems.
- API maintenance: Keep endpoint references aligned with implementation.
- Architecture review: Visualize modules and dependencies as code evolves.
- Documentation in CI/CD: Regenerate and review docs as part of delivery workflows.
Pricing
The Free plan is listed at $0 per month with unlimited public repositories and no credit card requirement. New users receive a 30-day trial of paid features, then move to Free unless they upgrade. Paid plan amounts are not displayed in the reviewed homepage content.
