Dosu for Startups

Dosu manages and controls your AI agents by automatically building and maintaining the documentation, specs, and memory your agents run on. The result: agents that are 2x faster, half the cost, and consistent run to run.

AI knowledge infrastructure empowering your agents to ship faster

Operate as an agent-first engineering team with skills that keep your agents consistent and efficient across every session, context direct agents quickly to productive research paths instead of blind exploration, and knowledge that updates immediately at the pace of development. The context your team builds on today is always current, never last quarter's snapshot.

“Dosu's automatic knowledge capture 10x's everyone's agents. Now when one engineer's agent learns something new, it's auto-shared to all our other agents and the whole team benefits.”

Individual builder

Build what you need faster with team-wide knowledge

Auto-generate docs from the work you're already doing with self-documenting PRs

Docs update as code changes. Onboarding, reviews, and handoffs stay sharp even as your team and codebase grow. It just happens.

Generate agent-friendly specs, skills, and memory.

Dosu doesn't just write docs for humans. It generates and maintains structured specs and memory files designed specifically for AI agents — so complex tasks can be executed with minimal hand-holding.

Answers in the tools your team already uses

Slack, Notion, Confluence, Coda, GitHub. Ask in the channel you’re already in and get an answer grounded in your code, specs, and prior decisions, shared across your entire team.

Capture the “aha” moments when they happen

Works at two engineers. Ready for two hundred.

Most documentation tools are built to only capture one moment in time. Either they work when you're small and break down as you scale, or they're designed for large orgs and are overkill for an early team.

Dosu will scale with you. Whether you're three engineers moving fast or a fifty-person team onboarding a new hire every week, Dosu's documentation stays current automatically — so your knowledge infrastructure never lags behind your headcount.

Set up in minutes, not days

AICPA SOC 2 certification badge

SOC 2 certified, with SSO support and enterprise-grade data protection — so you can close deals without scrambling.

Frequently asked questions

Dosu can answer questions or update context from wherever you happen to be (terminal, IDE, browser, GitHub) with full knowledge of your code, specs, docs, issues and open source dependencies.

How long does it take to get set up?
Most startup teams are fully onboarded the same day. Connect your GitHub repo and any other tools your team uses, and Dosu begins indexing immediately.
Does Dosu replace our existing tools?
No. Dosu works alongside GitHub, Jira, Slack, Confluence, and Notion — reading from and writing to the tools your team already uses. You keep your stack; Dosu keeps it documented.
What happens after the one month free trial?
After your trial you'll move to a paid plan based on your team size. Talk to us and we'll find the right fit.
Is Dosu secure enough for our enterprise customers to be comfortable with?
Yes. Dosu is SOC 2 certified with SSO support and enterprise-grade data protection — giving you the security posture your customers expect without the overhead of building it yourself.
Do you support private repositories?
Yes. Private repositories are fully supported across all paid plans.
What if we're still early and only have a couple of engineers?
That's the best time to start. Getting Dosu in place before your first wave of hires means your documentation infrastructure grows automatically with your team, instead of playing catch-up later.

One month free.
No sales call required.

Startups move fast and so does Dosu's onboarding. Connect your GitHub repo and your team is up and running the same day. Try Dosu free for one month — no credit card required, no demo needed unless you want one.
