Vercel for Platforms

Build a Mintlify-style documentation platform on Vercel.

Atlas is a multi-tenant documentation platform that serves many customer docs sites from one deployment. Each tenant gets its own domain, navigation, and branding while sharing the same runtime.

Why multi-tenant?

Multi-tenant platforms keep infrastructure simple: one codebase, one deployment, and tenant-aware routing at the edge.

Why build multi-tenant apps?

Multi-tenant platforms power modern docs products such as Mintlify, Fern, Hashnode, and other white-labeled publishing tools. The model is consistent:

  • A shared Next.js codebase
  • Tenant-specific domains and content
  • Centralized infrastructure and tooling

Getting started

Start with the multi-tenant template to see how middleware routes requests by hostname, then follow the Quickstart to configure wildcard and custom domains.

Multi-tenant features on Vercel

  • Wildcard subdomains and custom domains on one project
  • Automatic SSL issuance and renewal
  • Domain management through the API/SDK
  • Preview environments for every tenant
  • Global edge caching for fast responses
