Rewrites the introductory section of the Promptless 1.0 page to better explain the types of problems Promptless solves.

What changed:

The original intro was brief—just two paragraphs mentioning that keeping docs current is exhausting. The new intro adds three sections:

  1. The Documentation Problem - Explains why documentation drift happens: it's structural, not a discipline problem. Each team (engineers, PMs, tech writers, support) owns part of the picture but none owns the full context.

  2. Why It Matters More Now - Three trends making this critical:

    • AI agents now rely on docs and give incorrect guidance at scale when docs are wrong
    • Product velocity has outpaced traditional documentation workflows
    • Self-service expectations mean stale docs = more support tickets
  3. What Promptless Does - Clear explanation of how Promptless closes the documentation gap automatically.

Why this helps:

Matt Link requested this rewrite via Slack to help readers understand the value proposition better. The new intro gives concrete context about the problems before diving into product features.

We made Promptless to solve a problem every team faces: keeping documentation current is exhausting. Context gets lost in handoffs, updates lag behind releases, and support teams answer the same questions repeatedly because docs are always a step behind.
