Public documentation

Eliminate tool sprawl. Write once in Confluence. Publish everywhere with full branding, search, and analytics.

A published help centre with a blue header, a search box, a tab per space, a page tree and an article about capabilities.
A public help centre published straight from Confluence spaces, with search, space tabs and a page tree.

Because the site is generated as static HTML and served via CDN, docs typically load faster and with fewer moving parts than dynamic Confluence page views, which improves both user experience and SEO.

Help centres should not require a technology overhead. However, most teams struggle with scattered tools, outdated content, and constant manual work.

Documentation lives in Confluence, your help centre in Zendesk Guide, and customer-facing content elsewhere. Every update increasing the chance of inconsistencies.

Licenses for platforms like Zendesk, GitBook, and ReadMe add up fast, before you factor in implementation time, maintenance, and admin overhead.

When publishing requires multiple steps across disconnected tools, content inevitably goes stale. SEO suffers. Users get frustrated.

Write documentation in Confluence. Capable Sites transforms your space into a polished, public-facing documentation site automatically.

Your team spends more time writing and improving content, and less time maintaining tooling and duplication.

Write in Confluence Use your existing spaces, pages, and structure as your documentation source.
