01

Open any PR in DraftView

Sign in with GitHub and paste any PR URL to instantly open your docs in a clean reading view. Installing the DraftView GitHub App takes 10 seconds, that's all the setup there is.

02

Share with anyone (GitHub or not)

DraftView handles reviewers with or without GitHub accounts. They open a clean, Google Docs-style canvas and start editing immediately. Lock it down with a password, cap submissions, or require SSO. External reviewers never touch GitHub.

03

One click syncs it all back.

Comments become PR comments. Suggestions become GitHub suggestions.When reviews come in, open them right in your DraftView editor. No copy-paste. No reformatting.

Precision Control

Say goodbye to diff view.

Nobody outside engineering should have to see the diff view. DraftView keeps your Markdown, MDX, and AsciiDoc docs exactly where it belongs, in Git. While giving every reviewer a clean, comment-ready document they'll actually open.

Enterprise Security, Zero Configuration

No extra passwords to manage or domains to whitelist. DraftView automatically inherits your existing GitHub repository permissions and organizational SSO. If a user can't see the PR on GitHub, they can't see it here.

🔒
🔑
🔓

SOC2 Ready

End-to-end encryption on every session. Audit-ready from day one. Built for teams with compliance requirements.

Full Audit Trail

Every review session is logged. Who opened the link, what they changed, when they approved. Export evidence for legal sign-off or compliance audits.

Everything your review workflow is missing

Instant Magic Links

Share a rendered, interactive review for any GitHub branch or PR with a single link. No logins, no onboarding, no confusion. Your reviewer clicks, reads, edits, and comments. DraftView handles the rest.

Google Docs-Style Suggestions

Reviewers highlight text and type replacements, just like suggesting edits in a shared document. No raw Markdown. No diff hunting. No "what exactly are you changing?" back-and-forth. Just clean, intuitive suggestions that anyone can make and understand.

Native GitHub PR Sync

Every suggestion and comment writes back to your GitHub PR as a structured, line-level Suggested Change. Work as you normally would in GitHub. No copy-pasting required.

Native Access Control

DraftView inherits your existing GitHub repository permissions by default, no extra setup needed. For external reviewers without GitHub access, generate a password-protected link with an expiry and submission cap. Revoke access anywhere, anytime.

Works With Your Stack

DraftView renders your docs as they would appear in your docs, including support for Markdown, MDX, and AsciiDoc. It's built to fit seamlessly into your existing workflow. No migrations, no new formats, no learning curve. Just better reviews, right where your docs already live.

Secure Data Handling

Your PR content is encrypted in transit and at rest. External review sessions are isolated. Each reviewer sees only their own canvas, never other reviewers' feedback. Nothing reaches GitHub until you approve it.

Changes in Context, Not in Code

DraftView highlights changes directly in the rendered document, eliminating the need for side-by-side diff views. This makes it easier for non-technical stakeholders to review and understand changes without getting lost in raw Markdown or code.

Review Audit Trail

Every review session is logged: who opened the link, what they suggested, when they approved. Export audit evidence for Legal sign-off or compliance reviews.

Blazing Fast Performance

DraftView renders large PRs, dozens of files, thousands of lines, without lag. Smart caching means your reviewers open the link and start immediately, not after a loading spinner.

Free your docs from duplicate drafts

Built for docs-as-code workflows.

Unlike traditional CMS platforms, DraftView lives in your workflow, not as a destination. We believe technical documentation requires technical review tools, not generic word processors.

"Getting PM reviews is the biggest problem for any doc-review workflow. Their feedback is disconnected from the original. If you're using GitHub, your reviewers would all have to understand and be able to smoothly work with the source structure. This is pretty unlikely."

Everything you need to know about the visual review engine. Machined for precision, built for humans.

Diff-core Engine

Status
EARLY ACCESS
Our visual interface uses our proprietary "Diff-Core" engine to render your documentation changes. It provides a clear, visual representation of modifications, making it easier to review and understand updates. Sign in with GitHub to experience it firsthand.
Not always. For standard review links, yes, a GitHub account is required to post comments and suggestions directly on a PR. For public repositories, any GitHub user can review and comment. For private repositories, reviewers must also have access rights to the repository. But writers can also share an External Review link (Pro feature), which lets anyone review and submit feedback without a GitHub account or any login at all. The writer then approves and pushes their suggestions to the PR.
External reviewers access a password-protected link you generate from your PR dashboard. They add comments and edit suggestions in the visual editor, then submit the review. You receive their feedback in your dashboard, review each item, and choose what to push to GitHub. Their contributions are attributed.
Yes. External Review links (Pro and Enterprise) are designed for exactly this: legal sign-off, external SME review, agency feedback, anyone who doesn't have GitHub access to your repository. Links are password-protected, expire after a window you set, and cap the number of submissions.
You can view private repo PRs for free, but syncing comments and edits back to GitHub requires Pro. With free plan you can view, edit, and comment on public PRs, and sync your changes back to GitHub.
We currently support standard Markdown, MDX and Asciidoc. AsciiDoc renders correctly, however some features may not be fully functional. We are actively working on improving AsciiDoc support. If you have specific format needs, please contact us to discuss how we can accommodate your workflow.
Yes, all data is encrypted at rest and in transit. We follow industry best practices for security and compliance, including SOC2 readiness. Your documentation and review sessions are protected with enterprise-grade security measures.
DraftView is designed to integrate with GitHub, so as long as your documentation is in a GitHub repository, you can use our visual review engine. So if you use Docasaurus, Mintlify, Fern, GitBook, Redocly, Readme, Hugo, MKDocs, or any other platform you are good to go.
If you have specific integration needs, please contact us to discuss how we can accommodate your workflow.
Currently, our visual review engine is optimized for GitHub. Our API is ready for integrations with other platforms. If you're interested in using our engine with GitLab, Bitbucket, or another platform, let us know your use case. We are actively exploring support for additional platforms based on user demand.
Yes! DraftView is free for public repositories with up to 5 reviews per month. Pro plans start at $29/repo/month with 100 reviews/month (fair-use soft cap) and include a 14-day free trial, no credit card required. Visit our pricing page for full details.

The missing link for human-verified docs.

Stop chasing feedback across email threads, Google Docs, and Slack messages. DraftView gives every reviewer, technical or not, GitHub user or not, a clean, comment-ready document they'll actually open. Everything lands in one PR.
