Content Publishers

Help contributors with editorial guidelines, submission processes, and platform documentation.

From Idea to Shipped Feature

One platform for the entire product lifecycle. Each step feeds the next.

Collect Feedback

Users submit feature requests and vote on priorities.

Plan on Your Roadmap

Ship and Announce

Document It

Generate a help article from shipped features. AI writes the draft.

CMS users range from beginners to senior developers. Your knowledge base needs to serve both with content organized by skill level and searchable by intent, not just keywords.

ProductLift combines AI-powered search with analytics that show which articles get read and which search queries return nothing. You build documentation based on real user needs, not assumptions.

Why Umbraco Sites Need Documentation for Every User Type

Umbraco serves two distinct audiences: .NET developers who build and maintain the platform, and content editors who use the backoffice daily. These audiences need fundamentally different documentation, but most Umbraco sites offer only developer-focused resources.

ProductLift's knowledge base bridges that gap with unlimited topic hierarchy. Developer documentation covers Razor views, API endpoints, and deployment processes. Editor documentation covers content workflows, media management, and publishing guidelines. Both live in one searchable place.

Embedding the knowledge base in a Razor view requires a single code snippet. There's no NuGet package, no Umbraco package to manage, and no impact on your site performance or backoffice responsiveness.

AI-powered search ensures that content editors asking questions in plain language find relevant answers even when documentation uses technical .NET terminology. That capability alone reduces the number of times editors interrupt developers with basic questions.

Umbraco Knowledge Base Plugin FAQ

How do I add a knowledge base to my Umbraco site?

Add a Custom HTML block to any Umbraco page, paste the ProductLift embed code, and publish. The embed works with any Umbraco theme or template. Alternatively, host on a custom subdomain and link from your navigation.

Do I need to install a Umbraco plugin?

No. ProductLift is hosted on its own servers and embedded via a small code snippet. There's nothing to install, no database tables created, and no performance impact on your Umbraco site.

Can AI help me write knowledge base articles?

Yes. AI can rewrite and improve your drafts, making it easy for any team member to create polished documentation. Write a rough draft and let AI polish it.

Can the knowledge base be private?

Yes. Make your knowledge base public for all visitors or restrict access to authenticated users. Useful for internal team documentation or customer-only help centers.

How do I track what users are searching for?

Analytics show you which articles are most viewed, which search queries return no results, and where users drop off.

Can I customize the appearance?

Full customization for colors, fonts, and layout. White-label branding removes all ProductLift references.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. 14-day free trial with full access, no credit card required. Plans start at $19/mo (billed annually).
