| Best use | Best for an individual developer or small team tracing a bug, adding a test, or implementing a bounded change with a reviewable plan and diff. Avoid broad production access or unscoped Auto-approve, and do not treat it as a replacement for tests, Git, or human review. | Best for a developer or analyst extracting text from several document formats before search or supplying selected passages to an AI agent. It provides a repeatable CLI command and Python library, while requiring review against the original. It is not intended for layout-perfect document publishing. | Ideal for a small team that wants runbooks, product decisions, and system documentation on its own server with live editing, search, and page history. It is not a fit for teams that want zero server operations or expect SSO and granular page permissions in the free edition. |
