Fern Docs sites are now static, and much faster
Part 2 of making Fern faster: every Docs site is now prebuilt as static pages, so pages load faster, local preview is quicker, and publishing never slows a site down.

- SDKs
We tested AI agents with and without an SDK. The SDK won.
Claude agents built a Square payments integration on raw HTTP, with an OpenAPI Generator SDK, and with Square's Fern-generated SDK. With Square's SDK, 11 of 12 integrations worked in production. With the other two setups, 2 of 12 did.

How we built Fern Agent
How we built Fern Agent: why we persisted conversations before it had a single tool, taught it that valid markdown isn't valid Fern, and secured write access to customer docs before it shipped.

One agent for your documentation
Fern Agent is live in your Dashboard, Slack, and coding agent via MCP. It edits your markdown, restructures your nav, fixes your CSS, and answers from your real analytics, all from one conversation.
