Use Cases

Komment wikis are custom-built to fit each organization’s unique codebase and team structure.

Komment generates a diverse variety of documentation types that deliver value to not just individual developers, but also adjacent roles like product managers, engineering leadership, IT security, QA, compliance and even finance controllers.

Developers​

  • Developers can focus on building solutions and innovating rather than writing and updating docs — Komment will write documentation and update it continuously.
  • High-level project overviews and project summaries helps new developers understand projects quickly and meaningfully contribute from the get-go.
  • Detailed usage examples and code implementation details provide developers with the tools they need to understand large and complex codebases, even if the original developers have left the team.
  • Komment prioritises the developer experience by plugging into existing developer CI/CD toolchains and working silently in the background to generate documentation and build wikis, without disrupting developer workflows.
  • Get rapid, contextualised answers about your team’s codebase using natural language without needing to rely on senior team members for important information.

Engineering Leads​

  • Build wikis in any language, and easily document large, complex legacy codebases.
  • Code is documented as its written and automatically organised in your wiki so you don’t have to chase your team to write docs or worry about critical information getting stuck in a silo.
  • By automatically keeping documentation aligned with code changes, Komment reduces the risk of outdated or missing docs, minimizing technical debt over time.
  • Komment wikis bring consistency to documentation standards across your team, helping maintain long-term project health.
  • Komment produces a versatile range of documentation including high-level file overviews, complete with usage instructions to help team members quickly get to grips with projects and speed through on-boarding.
  • Quickly get detailed technical overviews and understand the whole scope of a project.
  • Trust that docs are always up to date with most recent code logic, reducing information bottlenecks.

Product Managers​

  • Reduce risk, make data driven decisions and improve project continuity with distilled security insights within the context of your own codebase.
  • Komment standardizes documentation across teams, making it easier to transfer projects between teams or external partners with minimal disruption.
  • Accelerate user conversion with detailed, out-of-the-box ready API docs.
  • Komment produces high-level overviews and project summaries that make it easy to stay appraised of the latest features and quickly follow major project changes through.
  • Documentation generated by Komment can be exported as markdown back to the original repository, meaning developers can build downstream applications using the insights and data generated.
  • Easily distribute key information with relevant stakeholders using sharable file, module and project level wiki pages.

Technical Writers​

  • Komment produces a wide variety of technical docs, including high-level overviews and diagrams that are easily digestible to non-technical team members.
  • A team wiki reduces information bottlenecks by making docs continuously accessible and easily shareable — no more chasing down colleagues for answers and clarification.
  • Quickly find answers to technical questions using semantic search and talk to your wiki like an experienced developer.
  • Customise verbosity, tone and complexity of documentation to tailor content to fit different audiences.

Dev Agencies​

  • Komment automatically generates clear and comprehensive documentation, eliminating the time and resource cost for manual content writing and empowering you to ship quickly.
  • Komment allows teams to quickly pivot or prototype new ideas without the risk of outdated or inconsistent information slowing them down.
  • Easily distribute key information with relevant stakeholders using sharable file, module and project level wiki pages.
  • High-level project overviews and project summaries helps new developers understand projects quickly and meaningfully contribute from the get-go.
  • Prepare comprehensive training materials for client workshops with Komment’s diagrammatic docs, ensuring that clients fully understand and can utilize their software products.
