What is Dosu?
Captures knowledge from coding sessions into a searchable base.
Who is Dosu best for?
Dosu is best for engineering teams whose coding agents keep re-learning the same codebase and want self-updating docs.
Teams running coding agents
Its MCP server feeds Claude, Cursor, Codex and other agents shared project knowledge, and saves what each session learns for the next one.
Docs that drift from the code
When a pull request opens or merges, it checks your published docs, including AGENTS.md and API references, and proposes updates.
Knowledge spread across tools
On Pro it syncs docs from Notion, Confluence, Coda or the repo and answers questions in Slack, so the team works from one source.
Solo developers on public repos
The Free plan covers public GitHub and GitLab repositories with 200 credits a month, enough to try it on a side project.
How much does Dosu cost?
Dosu is free for public repositories with 200 credits a month, and its Pro plan costs $20 a month for 4,000 credits, private repositories and team tools, or $16 a month billed yearly.
- 200 credits a month
- Public repositories only, one member
- MCP server, self-documenting PRs, doc generation
- 4,000 credits a month, extra credits on demand
- Private repositories; Slack, Confluence, Notion and Coda
- Up to 100 team members, with usage analytics
Billed yearly, Pro is $16 a month ($192 up front), and it comes with a free trial whose length the page does not state. Billing is per organization, not per seat: every library, agent and connected source draws on one shared credit pool, which resets each billing period. Enterprise is priced on request, with unlimited usage, SSO, custom roles, audit logs and self-hosting for large companies. Open source projects backed by large organizations or venture funding can ask about a custom Maintainers Pro plan. Full pricing on dosu.dev. We checked these prices on .

What uses up Dosu credits?
Dosu spends credits on billable work: answers it posts and documents it generates, knowledge reviews that run when a pull request opens or merges (the costliest action), and MCP tool calls (the cheapest). Drafts you decline and failed runs cost nothing, and the credit pool resets each billing period.
What changed for open source projects on Dosu?
Dosu no longer has an unlimited tier for open source: public projects now use the standard Free plan with 200 credits a month. Hosted auto-labeling, stale-issue handling and PR labels were retired, and the maker offers open source GitHub Actions workflows to replace them.
