ReleaseDock

Overview

ReleaseDock is a knowledge base product for building and hosting a searchable help center that can also appear inside the app widget. It is designed to turn existing support content into a single source of truth for self-serve help and AI-assisted answers.

The product supports article collections, full-text search, article feedback, and imports from markdown or zip files. Published articles are served on your own domain and also feed the AI support agent, so one set of docs can support both customer browsing and in-app responses.

Features

Structured article organization

Create a branded help center with collections and sub-collections to keep articles organized as the library grows.

Fast migration from existing docs

Import existing documentation from a zip archive or a single markdown file, with the original structure preserved where possible.

Hosted and in-app publishing

Publish the same help content on your own domain and inside the widget, so customers can search and read without leaving the app.

Search that informs the roadmap

Use full-text search to surface the right article, while search logs show empty queries that point to content gaps.

Built-in article feedback

Collect thumbs-up and thumbs-down feedback on articles to identify which help pages need revision.

Shared source for AI support

Reuse published articles as the source for the AI support agent, so the knowledge base improves self-serve and assisted support at the same time.

Use Cases

  • Deflect routine questions

    A support team can publish articles once and let users search them inside the widget before opening a ticket.

  • Migrate documentation quickly

    A team switching from another docs tool can import an existing library in bulk instead of rebuilding the help center manually.

  • Organize a growing help center

    A product team can organize articles by product area or audience, then keep growing content manageable with collections and sub-collections.

  • Find documentation gaps

    A support lead can review empty search queries and article feedback to decide which topics need new documentation or revision.

  • Share one source across support channels

    A company can use the same knowledge base content to power the AI support agent and the hosted help center, reducing duplicate maintenance.

FAQ

Can the knowledge base be used inside the widget?

Yes. ReleaseDock provides a hosted help center on your own domain, and the same articles can appear inside the in-app widget, so users can search without leaving the product.

Can I migrate existing docs into ReleaseDock?

Yes. You can import a single markdown file or upload a zip archive of an existing documentation library, and the structure is preserved during import.

How do I know which help articles are working?

Each article supports views and thumbs-up/thumbs-down feedback, and search queries are logged so you can see which searches return no results and decide what to write next.

What is included in the knowledge base workflow?

The help center uses a block editor, collections, full-text search, article feedback, hosted pages, and the same source content powers the AI support agent.
