Custom themes
Create a unique visual identity for your documentation with tailored themes for tools like Antora, Docusaurus, or Sphinx.
Documentation engineering - Extend the documentation workflow where your stack needs it.
We implement plugins, directives, components, and integrations for defined documentation requirements. Each project includes an agreed compatibility target, validation, and handoff.
Add the capability your documentation workflow needs.
Leverage tailored solutions to optimize, expand, and modernize your documentation workflows. From automated features to bespoke integrations, we craft extensions that align with your needs.
Automated workflows
Automate repetitive tasks like builds, deployments, and content validation for efficiency and consistency.
Plugins and extensions
Add functionality with custom plugins for tools like Sphinx, Madcap Flare, or Starlight, tailored to your requirements.
Third-party integrations
Seamlessly integrate your documentation with analytics, version control, or CI/CD pipelines.
AI-powered documentation
Integrate search or agent access where needed, with source/version boundaries and representative query evaluation in the agreed scope.
Enhance your documentation workflows with smarter solutions
Custom extensions improve efficiency, reduce manual effort, and help you integrate advanced capabilities into your existing documentation system.
Cut the manual steps
Replace the copy-paste and hand-editing steps in your publishing process with automation that runs in CI.
Automate repetitive tasks
Focus on critical tasks while automation handles updates, formatting, and publishing pipelines.
Integrate with essential tools
Extend your documentation system to work seamlessly with CI/CD pipelines, analytics, or API generators.
Own your extensions
Deliver custom source and setup notes in your repository, with platform APIs, third-party licenses, and operating dependencies documented.
Improve user experience
Add features that make your documentation easier to navigate, search, and interact with for your users.
Real extensions we've built
See concrete examples of custom extensions and automation solutions we've developed for our clients, from PDF generation to API documentation automation.
PDF Generation System
Data platformAutomated chapter-based PDF generation from single-source documentation
Technologies:
- Sphinx
- Custom builders
- HTML to PDF conversion
Result: Users can download individual sections as PDFs, reducing file sizes and improving navigation
CLI Documentation Generator
ScyllaDBAutomated generation of command-line reference documentation from source code
Technologies:
- Python
- Custom directives
- Code parsing
Result: Reference output is regenerated from the CLI source used in the build, with release triggers and validation configured in the implementation.
API Documentation Automation
MONEIAuto-generated OpenAPI and GraphQL documentation from source contracts
Technologies:
- Docusaurus
- OpenAPI integration
- GraphQL schema parsing
Result: Generated API documentation is aligned with the maintained specification used in the build
Multi-language Code Reference
BlueRoboticsAutomated Python, C++, and Lua reference documentation from source code
Technologies:
- Sphinx
- Autodoc extensions
- Multi-language parsing
Result: References are generated from the maintained source used in the build; coverage and descriptions still require source review.
Custom Search Integration
Voxel51Advanced search functionality with Algolia DocSearch and cross-site indexing
Technologies:
- Sphinx
- Algolia API
- Custom indexing
Result: A shared index exposes content from the configured sites, with representative queries checked during implementation.
Localization Automation
SymbolAutomated translation workflows with community contribution management
Technologies:
- Transifex integration
- Git workflows
- Content management
Result: Community-driven translations reviewed and published through the existing Git workflow

Pricing depends on your platform
Extension work is priced by your stack, the APIs and skills differ. Pick your platform for packages and pricing, or tell us what you use and we’ll scope it.
Custom directives, roles, and builders for Sphinx.
Remark/rehype plugins, custom MDX components, and integrations.
Astro components and islands for interactive docs features.
Commonly asked questions
We build for Sphinx (Python extensions, directives, roles, and builders), Docusaurus (remark and rehype plugins, MDX components, theme plugins), MkDocs (Python plugins and Material extensions), Antora (AsciiDoc extensions and UI bundles), and Starlight (Astro components and integrations). If you run something else, we can usually work with it as long as the platform exposes a plugin or template layer.
We compare built-in features, maintained integrations, custom development, and migration against your requirements. An extension can suit a bounded gap; platform limits, lifecycle, and ongoing maintenance may justify a move. The recommendation includes those tradeoffs.
You do. Extensions are delivered as source in your repository, with documentation and tests, so your team can maintain or extend them without us. We can open-source it with you if that suits the project, and we can keep it maintained under a retainer, but neither is a condition of the work.
Partly. The logic that does the real work, parsing a schema, calling an API, transforming content, is usually portable. The integration layer is not, because each platform has its own plugin API and rendering model. When teams run more than one platform we tend to build a shared core with a thin per-platform adapter, which keeps the behaviour consistent without pretending the platforms are interchangeable.
