Why Mintlify?

We're on a mission to empower builders.

• Massive reach: Our docs platform serves 70 million+ developers every year and powers documentation for 8,000+ companies, including Anthropic, Cursor, Windsurf, Scale AI, X, and over 20 % of the last YC batch.

• Small team, huge impact: We’re only 20 people today, backed by $18.5 million in funding, each new hire shapes the company’s trajectory.

• Culture of slope over y-intercept : We value learning velocity, grit, and unapologetically unique personalities.

We grew in value faster than headcount and we’re looking to align the two in the coming year.
