From Chaos to Clarity: AI for API Docs
SESSION
In many teams, the path from product idea to API documentation spans multiple worlds. Product managers capture requirements in tools like Confluence or Notion, while engineers define structured specifications in Postman or Swagger. Designers, if involved, think in workflows rather than endpoints. Somewhere between these worlds, consistency, structure, and discoverability often get lost.
This talk explores how Generative AI can bridge those gaps, helping mixed teams co-create and govern API specifications and documentation without forcing everyone to become OpenAPI experts.
