What AI models recommend in IT documentation

Read the same way at every company size.

The standing depends on who is buying. Every model is asked the same questions for each company size.

Why models recommend it

“Zero budget, technical team: Use Docusaurus or Starlight on GitHub Pages. It's free, flexible, and gives you full control.”GLM 4.7 FlashX · Budget-constrained question · first choice
“Docusaurus (for dev-heavy teams)—these avoid subscription risks but require more setup”Grok 4.20 · Negative question · alternative
“Need docs-as-code for engineering teams? → Docusaurus / MkDocs / GitHub-based docs”GPT-5.4 mini · Comparative question · alternative
“Docusaurus is Engineering-led open-source docs, Free (open source), Git-native.”Muse Glimmer 30B · Budget-constrained question · alternative

What gives them pause

“treating them as an "Internal Developer Portal" is a mistake”Qwen 3.7 Flash · Negative question · warning
“Docusaurus itself notes it is powerful for docs sites but not as opinionated for documentation workflows, so it may require more setup.”GPT-5.4 mini · Negative question · warning
“BookStack, Wiki.js, Docusaurus, and similar tools can provide control, but the organization must handle hosting, patching, backups”Perplexity Sonar · Negative question · warning

How it is countedHide how it is counted

Every page docusaurus.io exposes, subdomains included. Kind is read from the address and title. The last 90 days, the latest date and the twelve months count pages by when they were published, from the site's feeds, a date in the address, or the page's own publication date, read from up to a hundred of its most recently changed pages; a page that says only when it last changed is counted in its kind but not in when, so the recent counts are a floor, and a kind none of whose pages gives a publication date reads undated.
