Join us on Thursday, January 22, 2026, for an evening focused on the future of documentation, where data, AI, storytelling, and global collaboration come together. From building data-informed writing practices to integrating intelligent agents into documentation workflows, to delivering demos that teach, to scaling content for worldwide audiences, this meetup brings together professionals who are redefining how modern documentation gets built. The event will be hosted at Sigma Computing in San Francisco.Speaker #1: Sarah MoirProfessional Title: Principal technical writer at Sigma ComputingTalk title: Documentation Analytics: Turning Data into Better DocsTalk description: When we talk about documentation and data, it's almost always in the context of measuring success or proving value. We don't talk much about how we can use data to inform our day-to-day work, informing decision-making and helping to keep the curse of knowledge at bay. I'll share the most relevant data sources and strategies that I've found for building a data-informed documentation practice.Speaker #2 : Brian DouglasProfessional Title: Developer Experience LeadTalk title : Self documenting agentsTalk description : Managing documentation with agents sound like a bad idea. Agents slop is not going to help user's path to value. This talk will demonstrate how my team leverages Continuous AI (Trigger → Agent → Review → Ship) to solve for poorly generated documentation by ensuring agents are just as informed as any human team member.Speaker #3: Viviana MarquezProfessional Title: AI Community LeadTalk title: From Code to Connection: How to Deliver Technical Live Demos That StickTalk description: Live demos can be one of the most powerful ways to teach technical concepts, when they're done well. But they can also quickly overwhelm, bore, or lose an audience if the storytelling isn’t intentional. In this talk, you’ll learn a practical framework for crafting engaging technical learning experiences using tools like Jupyter and RISE to turn code into a compelling narrative instead of a wall of text.Speaker #4: Justin MalletteProfessional Title: Technical Writer, Global at RipplingTalk title: Getting Global Content Right: How Collaboration with In-Market Teams Strengthens DocumentationTalk description: As products expand into new markets, documentation teams often struggle to keep pace with local expectations and cultural nuances. This talk shares a collaborative approach to scaling content, grounded in ongoing partnerships with the teams who understand each region best. Together, we’ll explore workflows, roles, and decision-making models that help global docs mature with the business.
