1. Executive Summary

This proposal outlines a comprehensive plan to restructure, modernize, and future-proof Livepeer’s documentation. Our goal is to transform the existing documentation into a stakeholder-focused, AI-first, and maintainable single source of truth.

We will design a clear, intuitive information architecture that supports developers, orchestrators, delegators, and gateway operators. The restructured documentation will eliminate duplication, deprecate outdated Studio content, integrate AI-ready formatting, and introduce sustainable governance practices.

Our team brings prior experience restructuring Polkadot and Dash developer documentation, giving us the expertise to create a unified, AI-ready documentation experience for Livepeer. By December 5th, 2025, we will deliver a fully redesigned documentation system, live on Mintlify/Docusaurus, with seamless integration into the Livepeer ecosystem.
