Stenography

Stenography automates the task of documenting entire codebases, so your documentation stays up to date and accurate. The service uses AI technology to generate explanations of code in plain English, helping you understand and maintain your projects better.

Some of its features include:

• Autopilot: Document codebases automatically as changes are made.
• Powerful API: Pass in code and get explanations that you can customize to your needs.
• Integrated Stack Overflow Suggestions and Linked Documentation: No need to search the web, because Stenography suggests answers and links to related documentation.
• Extensions: Integrates with many sites where code is hosted, so you can use it easily.
• Privacy First: Uses a passthrough API that doesn't store code, so your data stays local and private.

Stenography has flexible pricing, including 250 free monthly API invocations, which is useful for developers using Visual Studio Code (VSC) or building their own extensions.

Stenography is geared for developers and teams that want to get documentation out of the way so they can focus on their projects. It's designed to help you manage projects and collaborate with others more easily. And by providing explanations of code that are clear and understandable, it can help you spend less time trying to understand and maintain complicated projects.

Check the Stenography website for more details. You can also see live examples and extensions on their Notion page.
