GetPagemark vs ReadMe
ReadMe is for API reference. GetPagemark is for everything else.
ReadMe is a premium documentation platform focused on API documentation. It has features like interactive API explorers, auto-generated reference docs from OpenAPI specs, and developer dashboards.
If you need those features, ReadMe is the right choice. But if you're writing guides, tutorials, getting-started docs, or any non-API documentation, it's overkill.
GetPagemark is purpose-built for markdown documentation. No API spec parsing, no interactive consoles — just clean, fast, searchable docs from your GitHub repo.

Verdict
ReadMe is a premium tool for API-heavy companies with budget. GetPagemark is for everyone else who just needs clean hosted docs from markdown. $0-3/month vs $99+/month tells the story.
