Mintlify agent can now answer questions about your docs analytics
Mintlify has added analytics to its agent, so teams can ask questions about their documentation data in plain language. According to the company, the feature is meant to explain why metrics changed, something dashboards rarely do.
- The Mintlify agent can now answer analytics questions about documentation.
- Users open the Mintlify editor, click Ask agent and type a question in the agent panel.
- Example queries cover top user agents, pages agents visit more than humans, failed searches and page traffic trends.
- Mintlify says it is working on attribution to link docs to business performance.
From dashboards to questions
Mintlify says dashboards show what changed but rarely explain why. The updated Mintlify agent is designed to close that gap. Users can request specific breakdowns, compare metrics across pages and investigate changes in traffic.
The company says the goal is a deeper understanding of both user and agent trends, and a way to surface new insights. The focus is on how people and AI agents use documentation, and where the docs can be improved.
How to use it
To get started, open the Mintlify editor and click Ask agent. From the agent panel, users can ask any question about their docs analytics. Mintlify offers several example prompts:
- What are the top 5 user agents hitting my site?
- Which pages do agents visit far more than humans?
- What are people searching for and finding nothing?
- What was the trend of the REST API introduction page over the last month?
The examples show that the feature covers both human and AI agent traffic, as well as search behavior. Mintlify points to its documentation page, Ask about your analytics, for more examples and details. The post also includes a demo of the agent in action.
What comes next
Mintlify says it is working on rolling out new analytics capabilities, including attribution. According to the company, attribution should help teams better understand the impact of their documentation and knowledge sites on business performance.
The company also invites customers to suggest further analytics features by submitting a request on its roadmap.
For teams that maintain documentation on Mintlify, the change means analytics questions can be asked directly inside the editor rather than pieced together from dashboard views. The source does not give details on pricing or plan availability for the analytics feature.
