Anthropic

As a leading AI research company, Anthropic's models serve nearly 20 million consumers and developers worldwide, from major enterprises to cutting edge startups. High-quality documentation is critical to support their vast developer community.

When the team was launching their Claude Sonnet 3.5 model in 2024, they needed documentation that would scale with their rapidly expanding product. In particular, they needed a platform that would perform at scale for their growing user base, support customization for their unique brand, and help developers easily find what they need - all without adding more engineering overhead.

That's when Anthropic decided to partner with Mintlify.

Not only was it simple and fast to tailor their docs to match Anthropic’s brand, but Mintlify’s docs-as-code workflow made updating content significantly easier for developers and collaborators alike.

“It was really impressive to see how fast we could ship our docs with Mintlify.” -Brian Krausz, Member of Technical Staff

Most critically, Anthropic is able to reinforce their commitment as an AI leader by making their documentation AI-native. Partnering with Mintlify, they co-developed develop LLMs.txt and LLMs-full.txt to improve how their docs are ingested and surfaced by AI through Generative Engine Optimization (GEO). And with Mintlify’s built-in AI-native features—such as MCP servers and instant markdown exports for LLMs—Anthropic can offer a developer experience that plugs right into their users’ AI tools.

Today, over 1.5 million developers rely on Anthropic’s docs every month. Anthropic now delivers beautiful, performant, AI-ready docs for their users without any lift on their engineering team.
