Getting started
Amendary keeps your help center and docs correct after every release: Notion, GitHub, Zendesk Guide or Intercom Articles. Here is how to set it up.
What does Amendary do?
- When something ships, Amendary checks the articles and pages you watch: Notion pages, Markdown files in a repo, Zendesk articles or Intercom articles.
- Engineering docs are checked against commits once a day. Help articles are checked against what they follow: a repo’s releases or commits, or your public changelog (see Help articles follow).
- If a change makes a sentence wrong, Amendary drafts the fix with the proof. It waits in the Queue for your review (see Queue & reviews).
1. Connect GitHub
- On the Repos tab select Connect GitHub. GitHub asks you to authorize Amendary. Pick an account where the app is installed, or install it and choose repos.
- Amendary only reads these repos. Writing docs to a repo is a separate GitHub destination on the Pages tab.
- To change which repos are shared, use Manage repos on GitHub on the Repos tab.
- Your help center follows a public changelog instead? You can skip GitHub and set a changelog URL in step 3.
2. Add a destination
On the Pages tab select Add destination and pick where your docs live. You connect it inside the dialog:
- Notion: Notion asks which pages Amendary may read.
- GitHub: pick a repo and a folder or its wiki (owners only).
- Zendesk: enter your subdomain, then sign in with Zendesk.
- Intercom: pick your region, then sign in with Intercom.
You then land on that destination’s tab, with a card for it.
You can also start from the Notion Marketplace or the Intercom App Store. Both bring you back here to finish connecting.
3. Choose what help articles follow
For a help center, an owner opens Help articles follow on the destination’s card and picks a repo or a changelog URL. Zendesk and Intercom need this before you can browse. For engineering docs, skip it.
4. Watch pages
- Select Browse on the card and select Watch on the articles or pages that matter. Only watched pages are checked or edited.
- For Notion and GitHub you pick Help center or Engineering docs. An engineering page also needs the repo it describes, added on its row with Add repo. See Pages & mapping.
Step by step for each destination
How do I see a result on day one?
On Home, use the See a correction today step (later, Check recent changes). Pick a repo. Amendary checks its pages against the last 5 commits. Help pages use the last release or tag instead when that is the repo’s trigger. The result says how many pages were checked and how many fixes were drafted. A change that made nothing wrong drafts nothing.
I have a lot of old pages. Which should I watch?
Run a cleanup first. It marks pages about things you removed or never built. Watch the ones worth keeping. A cleanup spends credits and is in early access.
What else can Amendary do?
- Generate docs from a repo: help articles, guides, runbooks, decision records or product updates.
- Suggest a diagram for a Notion page, designed from its repo’s code. In early access.
- Five page types: docs & guides, runbooks, incident playbooks, decision records and product updates. See Document types.
- Read your data from your own tools with the API and MCP.
Do I need help to set it up?
No. Setup is self-serve and the steps above are the whole process. The free trial starts right away with no card (see pricing).
