# Specway — Full Reference > Import your OpenAPI spec and publish stunning, interactive API documentation. Built-in playground, auto-sync, analytics, and custom branding. Specway is an API documentation platform — the managed alternative to ReadMe, Mintlify, Scalar, and Swagger UI. Import your OpenAPI spec and publish beautiful, interactive documentation that stays in sync with your API. Everything below is a capability of that one product. --- ## Interactive API Docs — Auto-Synced From Your Spec Import an OpenAPI/Swagger spec (file, URL, or Git repo) and publish beautiful, searchable, interactive documentation. Every push regenerates the docs, so they never ship stale. **Key features:** - Import OpenAPI 2 / 3 / 3.1 and Swagger specs - Continuous auto-sync from a Git repo or hosted spec URL - Version history and one-click rollback - Beautiful, fast, fully searchable reference - Custom subdomain portals (e.g., yourcompany.docs.specway.com) **Use cases:** Public API reference, partner/customer developer portals, internal API catalogs. **Learn more:** https://specway.com/features/auto-sync --- ## Interactive Playground — Try The API From The Docs A built-in, in-browser playground lets developers call your live API straight from the documentation. Auth is handled, request shapes are pre-filled from the spec, and responses render with syntax highlighting. **Key features:** - Live "Try it" requests against real endpoints - Auth (API key, OAuth, bearer) handled for the visitor - Request bodies pre-filled from the OpenAPI schema - Shareable example requests **Use cases:** Shorten time-to-first-call, let prospects evaluate before integrating. **Learn more:** https://specway.com/features/interactive-playground --- ## Breaking-Change Detection — Catch Regressions Before Customers Do Every spec import is automatically diffed against the previous version.
