## What you get inside Specway (paid product capabilities)

- **Auto-sync API docs from your OpenAPI spec** — Connect a Git repo or URL — every push regenerates the docs. The free /tools/openapi-viewer is a one-shot version; in-app, you get continuous sync, version history, and rollback.
- **AI chatbot trained on your documentation** — Visitors ask natural-language questions and get answers grounded in your docs with citation links. Reduces support load and gives users an instant answer for the long tail.
- **Code samples in 30+ languages, auto-generated** — Every operation gets working examples in TypeScript, JavaScript, Python, Ruby, PHP, Go, Rust, Java, Kotlin, Swift, C#, cURL, and more. The free /tools/curl-to-code does 5 langs; in-app does 30+ kept in sync with every spec change.
- **In-browser API playground** — Visitors can call your live API from the docs page — auth handled, request shapes filled in from the spec, response rendered with syntax highlighting. The fastest path from "interested" to "first integration."
- **Branded custom-domain portals** — docs.yourcompany.com instead of yourcompany.specway.com. Your fonts, logo, colors. Looks like you built it; we operate it.
- **Breaking-change detection across versions** — Every spec import is automatically diffed against the previous version. Removed operations, narrowed responses, required-parameter changes flagged in the changelog before customers hit them. The free /tools/openapi-diff is a one-shot; in-app gates every release.
- **Automatic spec validation on every push** — Bad specs never ship docs. The free /tools/openapi-validator and /tools/openapi-linter let you check manually; in-app, every Git push runs both and fails the build if anything regresses.
- **Search that actually finds things** — Algolia-quality full-text search across operations, schemas, and prose. Visitors find what they need without scrolling.
- **Documentation analytics** — See which operations get read, where developers drop off, what they search for. Turns docs from a write-once artifact into a feedback loop.
- **AI-assisted spec authoring** — Describe an endpoint in plain English; Specway drafts the spec entry. Iterate and validate without learning OpenAPI syntax cold.
- **Workflow automation on top of your APIs** — Visual builder to chain API calls, add conditional logic, schedule runs, or trigger from webhooks. Export the result to TypeScript, Python, or Go.
- **Form generation from OpenAPI** — Turn any operation into a polished, embeddable form. Non-developers on your team can trigger complex API calls without writing curl.
- **Sales rooms (digital deal rooms)** — Send a single shareable link to a prospect; track which operations they read, what they tested, when. Replaces email back-and-forth on technical evaluations.
- **Partner portals (Connect)** — Spin up a branded portal for resellers / integrators with deal tracking, commissions, and shared resources. Same docs engine, different audience.

**Two ways to start, both free:**
- [Free forever](https://specway.com/signup) — 1 API, 1k monthly page views, 50 AI credits/mo. No card required. Stays free indefinitely.
- [14-day Launch trial](https://specway.com/signup?plan=launch&trial=1) — full access to Launch ($50/mo) for 14 days. No card charged during trial. Cancel anytime; no auto-conversion if you don't add a card.
