# Introduction

> Andesine is a content workspace where teams write, organize, and publish docs, guides, and knowledge bases.

Andesine is a content workspace for docs, guides, and knowledge bases. Your team writes together in a real-time editor, gives content a structure with schemas, and publishes it to websites, apps, and AI agents.

## What you can do

- **Write together.** The block editor has Markdown shortcuts, tables, code blocks, images, and components. Changes appear live for all editors, and Andesine saves them as versions.
- **Organize content.** Collections hold entries in a tree. Schemas add typed properties and named content areas to the entries of a collection.
- **Publish with control.** You choose which version of each entry is public. Read published content with the API and the SDK, host a documentation site, or sync it to a GitHub repository.
- **Connect AI agents.** Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and other AI apps can search, read, and edit your workspace through MCP, with your permissions.
- **Extend the workspace.** Install extensions, or build your own panels, pages, and editor views.
