Two-factor authentication is live

PR #482 · Merged 2 hours ago

I found a customer-facing feature in this pull request with no documentation, so I drafted the missing article and refreshed two related ones.

Sound familiar?

Your help center has been next weekend’s problem for six months.

It’s not that you don’t care. You ship constantly, and every renamed button or reworked flow quietly makes a help article wrong. No test fails. Nothing flags it. You find out when a customer does.

You sent the link knowing it was wrong

The screenshot was two redesigns old. Fixing it meant an hour you didn’t have. So you sent it anyway and hoped they wouldn’t scroll far.

You’ve answered this exact question 200 times

It should live in your help center. Instead it lives in your inbox, costing you ten minutes every week. Writing it up properly never reaches the top of the list.

A trial user got stuck and never came back

They wanted to help themselves. The doc they needed was missing or wrong, so they quietly gave up. You won’t get a ticket. Just a trial that never converted.

I do in 5 minutes what used to take one hour. I think it easily saves me 20h a month. We ship features every week. Updating docs is hell. Now Ferndesk makes it so easy I can just ship more and scale!
Tristan Roth Tristan Roth Founder, ISMS Copilot
I used to never update my articles, just write them once and they get stale right from day 1. Now my docs stay up to date automatically.
Fed Fed Founder, GummySearch
Being able to see exactly what customers are searching for and what they can’t find answers to. That alone has been huge. My support requests have dropped significantly since I started using it.
Laura Elizabeth Laura Elizabeth Founder, Client Portal
I simply connected Discord, Intercom, and GitHub, and within five minutes I had more than 20 tailor-made draft articles generated.
Richie McIlroy Richie McIlroy Founder, Cap
The Ferndesk audits have been really useful to discover gaps in our help articles and quickly fill them. We’re already seeing a reduction in our customer churn because of this.
Emmett Emmett Founder, PixelFlow
Connecting our GitHub repo lets Fern read latest file changes, create new articles and update old ones. Ferndesk easily saves us 20+ hours per week.
David Oragui David Oragui Founder, We Are Distributed
Many tools slap on some AI features so they can ride the AI wave, but they don’t actually add real value. Ferndesk is different, it uses AI in a way that is incredibly helpful for both the Mallow team and our customers.
Chipper Whatcott Chipper Whatcott Co-founder, Mallow
We just launched new help docs and I’m so happy with them. Clean new design, super fast with a better search, and AI chat built in that actually works so well we’re even using it to help with support tickets.
Bryce Adams Bryce Adams Founder, Metorik
This tool is absolutely magical! I’ve been using it firsthand in Senja and wow, it’s saving me so much time. Total game changer.
