Find & Fix API Documentation Errors with ReadMe's AI Linter
Blog post from ReadMe
ReadMe has introduced an AI Linter to help teams maintain clear, consistent, and accurate API documentation despite contributions from writers across design, engineering, support, and go-to-market functions. Teams can define plain-language style guides, publication-blocking errors, and less critical warnings, then run the linter during editing before content is saved or published; ReadMe’s AI writing assistant, Agent Owlbert, can automatically address flagged issues. Example rules include enforcing brand capitalization, removing placeholder text, formatting code with backticks, using inclusive language, and avoiding unexplained jargon. ReadMe positions the tool as a way to reduce manual review work and improve developer experience through more unified documentation. The company also announced an AI Booster Pack, available for $150 per month on any plan, which includes Ask AI conversational search, Ask AI Analytics, unlimited AI Agent use, and unlimited documentation audits, while existing Owlbot users are automatically upgraded.
