Palt review
An affordable hosted reference tool with testing, code samples, and custom domains.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Palt is a hosted API documentation platform for creating, customizing, and publishing interactive references from OpenAPI specifications. It is aimed at small teams that want an affordable web-based documentation site without managing hosting. Users can upload OpenAPI JSON or YAML files, generate reference pages, apply branding and themes, add custom domains with automatic SSL, and give readers an interactive browser console for trying endpoints.
Pricing is structured around a free plan, a per-project Pro tier, and an Enterprise tier. The Free plan costs $0 per month and includes a custom domain, Try It playground, and basic analytics. The Pro plan is priced at $19 per project per month on monthly billing and adds branding removal, custom CSS, advanced analytics, and priority support; the homepage lists this plan as coming soon. Enterprise includes SSO through SAML and OIDC, audit logs, an SLA guarantee, and dedicated support, with custom pricing. This makes Palt accessible for an initial documentation project while reserving administrative and support features for larger deployments.
Its strongest functional combination is OpenAPI-driven publishing plus reader-facing interaction. Generated examples are available in cURL, JavaScript, Python, and Go, while endpoint and documentation search helps readers navigate the reference. Brand controls include colors, fonts, dark mode, and logos, giving teams room to align the site with their product. Palt is a sensible choice for teams prioritizing hosted delivery, interactive references, and straightforward OpenAPI workflows. Teams that require verified versioning or immediately available paid features should consider an alternative.
