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.
The human review layer for your AI-generated docs.
AI writes the docs. DraftView is where a qualified human reviews, edits, and signs off before the change merges, and where the AI's response to that feedback gets verified. Built on top of GitHub.
Signing in only shares your GitHub name and email. DraftView can see a repository only after you install it there, and reviewers never need an account at all.
Migrating to API v3
API v3 introduces cursor-based pagination, a new auth header format, and deprecates the /v1/search endpoint in favor of /v3/query.
Breaking changes
- Auth header now requires Bearer prefix
- Pagination params changed from page/per_page to cursor/limit
- Response envelope dropped; data is returned at root
- Rate limits scoped per-token instead of per-IP
Migration timeline
v1 is deprecated on June 30, 2026. Migrate by then or requests will start returning 410 Gone.

Your AI opens doc PRs faster than your team can review them.
Writing got automated. Review did not. PRs pile up, age in the queue, and get rubber-stamped: the one outcome review exists to prevent.
Every AI doc PR, across every repo, lands in one inbox with a state and an owner.
GitHub accounts needed for the PMs, Legal, and SMEs who actually catch the mistakes.
To feel the experience on a public PR you already know. No login required.
The EU AI Act asks you to prove a human reviewed AI output. A green checkmark is not evidence.
A diff is for engineers. The page is for everyone.
Paginating results
Use cursor and limit to paginate. The response envelope has been removed in v3.
Deprecated July 2026.
Three steps. Zero config.
Connect the GitHub App
Point DraftView at your docs repos. GitHub still owns the content, the comments, and the merge. DraftView is additive and removable.
AI doc PRs auto-ingest
Every doc PR arrives in one cross-repo queue with an explicit lifecycle, so nothing ages out or merges under-reviewed.
A human reviews and signs off
The right person reviews the rendered page, the loop closes when the agent responds, and an oversight record is kept.
Four jobs GitHub can't do.
Keep up. Actually review. Close the loop. Prove it.
A review queue that keeps pace
Every AI doc PR auto-ingests into one cross-repo inbox: what needs a human, what is waiting on the AI, what is stale.
Visual review anyone can do
A Google Docs-style review of the rendered page (Markdown, MDX, AsciiDoc), with comments anchored to the prose, not line 47.
Send the Authorization header with a Bearer token on every request.
See if the agent really addressed it
When the agent pushes a new commit, see the before and after of that exact region, not just that a line changed.

Deprecated June 30, 2026.
A record a checkmark can't give
An append-only sign-off and an exportable human-oversight record: who reviewed, what changed, how long, against which version.
The loop GitHub never closes.
A reviewer comments. The agent pushes a commit. Verifying it actually addressedthe feedback, not just that a line moved, is manual and easy to skip. DraftView ties an “addressed” before and after to every comment, so the reviewer confirms the loop closed in one glance.

No GitHub account. No problem.
PMs, Legal, and SMEs are the people who can tell whether the AI got it right, and they do not have GitHub accounts and will not get them. They join by email magic link and review immediately. A GitHub-linked teammate pushes their feedback upstream under a real account.

Turn “a human reviewed this” from a claim into evidence.
A green checkmark on a PR is a sentence, not proof. DraftView owns the durable governance artifact GitHub does not produce.
Append-only sign-off
Who reviewed, what changed, how long, against which version. Captured automatically, never editable after the fact.
Substantive-review metric
The share of AI doc PRs that got a real human read versus rubber-stamped. The invoice is the oversight evidence.
Exportable for audit
Demonstrable human oversight for EU AI Act Article 14 and procurement. One export, not a scavenger hunt across PRs and email.
The problem,
in their words.
Conversations with technical writers shaped how DraftView works.
The 'old-fashioned' way is the doc writer has to manually implement the changes back to the source. I've only ever practiced the optimal way where all reviewers have access to GitHub and comment on source files. And that almost never happens.
We hate the duplicative Google Doc 'article to source, then source to doc' situation, but also kind of need it. We don't have a better way available.
I do all my drafting in Google Docs. Although it's not the only reason, Google Docs makes the editorial stage of writing much simpler to get feedback from SMEs and to have your writing undergo review.
I have never encountered someone with access to GitHub who can't get lost in convoluted source structure.
The SME feedback is disconnected from the original source. Your reviewers would all have to understand and smoothly work with the AsciiDoc source structure. This is highly unlikely.
Additive, removable, and never in charge of the merge.
GitHub owns the content
No second source of truth. Comments, threads, and review state sync natively.
Scoped access only
DraftView sees a repo only after you install it there. Signing in shares only your name and email.
Never auto-merges
DraftView is the verification view for the AI loop. It is never the AI, and it never merges for you.
