Batteries included

Everything a docs site needs

From templating to search to deploy — the parts you'd otherwise wire together yourself, built in.

Markdown in, HTML out

Author in Markdown, build to fast static HTML — pretty URLs, a TOC, and a clean default theme.

Real Python templating

Logic lives in template tags and is actual Python — pull from JSON, YAML, and CSV data files.

Generate any file

Build-time Python emits whole page sets — or any downloadable file: CSV, JSON, YAML, even binaries.

Built-in ⌘K search

A full-text search index and a fast command-palette modal ship with every build.

OpenAPI try-it

Drop in a spec and get interactive "try it now" reference pages.

Ships as one binary

Compile the whole tool to a single executable with Nuitka. Node only at build time.

Plug into your stack

Works with the tools you already use

Drop-in analytics and integrations — 16 platforms, each switched on with one config block. No script tags to hand-roll, no consent plumbing to wire.

Markdown that does more

Write content the way you always have — then reach for real Python: inline in a page, or in a generator script that emits whole page sets and downloadable files.

AI, built in

An assistant your readers can install

Ship a docs assistant that adds to the home screen, answers from your own content, and reads what readers hand it — backed by hundreds of models and billed only when it runs.

Installable assistant

A progressive web app — readers add it to a phone or desktop and launch straight into full-screen chat. No app store.

Multimodal questions

Attach images, PDFs, and text or code — by paperclip, drag-and-drop, or paste — and ask about them in context.

Instant, no-backend search

⌘K scores a prebuilt index right in the browser — no Algolia, no crawler, no server to keep running.

Free to use. aardvark builds a plain static site you can host anywhere — Netlify, Vercel, S3, or your own box. You only pay for AI, and only when it runs: pay-as-you-go, metered per token through the cloud gateway.
