Agent-Based AI and the Future of Document Automation

The Rise of AI Agents

AI isn't just about chatbots anymore. The next wave is agents—AI that takes actions on your behalf, not just answers questions.

Atlassian's Rovo is a prime example. It doesn't just search your Confluence; it can actually do things across your Atlassian tools.

What This Means for Documentation

Traditional documentation requires human effort at every step: decide what to document, gather information, write content, publish.

AI agents can automate the entire chain. Watch for events, gather context, generate content, and publish—all without human intervention.

FastDoc + AI: A Natural Fit

FastDoc has been building toward this future. Our automation rules are essentially simple agents: they watch for triggers, process information, and take action.

The AI component makes the generation smarter. The automation makes it hands-free.

The Practical Impact

Teams using AI-powered documentation report 80% less time spent on routine docs. The technology isn't replacing technical writers—it's handling the commodity stuff so writers can focus on complex, high-value documentation.

Getting Started

You don't need to understand AI to benefit from it. Tools like FastDoc handle the complexity. You just configure what you want documented and when.

The future of documentation isn't about writing faster. It's about not writing at all.
