Companies Using VitePress

I wanted a clean answer to a simple question: who runs VitePress? A domain counts in our crawl when its pages define VitePress's page lookup table, a signal every build carries. On 15 October 2026 that was 2,528 live domains. After we took out domain-for-sale pages it was 1,970, and when I fetched every one of those homepages, 1,887 still showed VitePress. 763 of the 1,970 match a company record. VitePress is free and MIT-licensed, made by the Vue team, which shipped version 1.0 in March 2024, so every number here counts sites.

A domain marketplace in the count

The biggest single user of VitePress in our raw data is Efty, a marketplace that builds its for-sale pages with VitePress. Park a name with Efty and it forwards to a listing carrying VitePress's code, so the parked name shows up as a VitePress site. 555 of the 2,528 were for-sale pages like that, about 22%. 222 of the 225 that our title filter missed load an identical set of tools, which is one template copied 222 times. 89 of the removed domains had even matched a company record, usually the business that once owned the name.

Sales signal: about a fifth of the raw VitePress domains in our crawl were parked names, and some carried a real company's name, so check any VitePress list for them. Drop anything that forwards to a marketplace before outreach.

It's a docs tool

VitePress ships with a default theme designed for technical documentation, and that's how it's used. 926 of the 1,970 domains sit on a docs-style hostname, 662 of them on docs. alone, and 47 of the 49 companies in our list run it on a subdomain. Workato's product docs, Shopware's developer portal, KNIME's analytics docs and Jabra's developer site are all VitePress. The main website is usually something else: 110 domains run Astro and VitePress today, and Next.js shows on 13.1% of VitePress domains, typically on the marketing hostname.

"On VitePress the docs team is the account. The marketing site on the same domain is usually built with something else." - Mehmet Suleyman, CEO & Co-founder at TechnologyChecker.io

Sales signal: pitch the people who own developer experience and documentation. The web team may not know VitePress is there. A VitePress detection on docs.company.com says nothing about who runs company.com.

Small, young software companies

Of the 744 matched companies with a known size, 66.8% have 1 to 10 employees and 23.52% have 11 to 50. Only 7 have more than 1,000 staff. 88.13% of those with a founding year started in 2010 or later, and 61.76% are software, internet or IT services firms. The non-software rows are API businesses too: payments companies such as PayerMax, Treezor and Stancer, and blockchain teams such as SingularityNET and iExec, all publishing developer references.

Sales signal: these are product-led companies with an API to explain. Tools for API reference generation, docs search, developer analytics and changelog publishing fit this list better than anything aimed at marketing teams.

Europe adds up to more than the US

The United States has the most matched companies, 163, but the nine European countries in our top 15 add up to 216: the United Kingdom 48, Germany 42, France 37, the Netherlands 26 and Switzerland 21 lead them. China looks small at 21 companies, but 186 of the 1,970 domains serve Chinese-language pages; Chinese open-source and SaaS docs rarely match company records. Baidu Analytics is on 5.38% of domains, which points the same way.

Sales signal: for a European docs or localisation tool, this list is unusually European for a developer product. For China, prospect from the domains themselves, because the company match won't carry you.

Shared domains, no switching

Our switching tests found nothing worth publishing. VitePress shares domains with Astro (110 today, out of 129 ever seen with both) and Hugo (27 of 34), and most of those still run both, which means two sites sharing a domain. The 522 exits since March are mostly Efty listings changing hands: 349 of the 514 that left entirely carry a for-sale title. The version tags say the base is current. Of 1,718 homepages with a version, 304 run a 2.0 alpha; vitepress.dev lists 1.6.4 as stable and 2.0.0-alpha.20 as the newest pre-release.

"About one VitePress site in six is already on a 2.0 alpha. That's a base that upgrades early, which you'd expect from teams who maintain developer docs for a living." - Mehmet Suleyman, CEO & Co-founder at TechnologyChecker.io

Sales signal: there's no churn story to sell into. Treat VitePress as a stable pool of about 2,000 docs sites and sell on what they lack.

The stack around it

Percentages are of the 1,970 cleaned domains. Vue.js is on 99.59%, which is VitePress itself. Cloudflare's CDN is on 56.75%, Fastly (which serves GitHub Pages) 18.02%, Netlify 8.73% and Vercel 9.14%. Google Analytics is on 42.54%, Cloudflare Browser Insights on 28.68%, Umami on 3.96% and Plausible on 3.86%. Search is the gap I'd look at: VitePress offers built-in local search or Algolia DocSearch, and only 7.77% of domains load DocSearch. The rest use the built-in local search, a plugin or nothing at all.

Sales signal: docs search, AI answer widgets and docs analytics have room here. Most of these sites run free hosting and free analytics, so the pitch has to start with a free tier.

What I'd take away

• 1,970 real VitePress domains, 7th of 26 static site generators with 0.15%, after removing 555 for-sale pages.
• It's a documentation tool: 926 domains on docs-style hostnames and 47 of our 50 named companies on a subdomain.
• The matched base is small software firms, 66.8% with 1 to 10 staff, and young, 88.13% founded since 2010.
• Europe's matched companies outnumber the US's, and Chinese-language sites are undercounted by company matching.
• No migration corridor; the base runs both VitePress and Astro or Next.js on one domain.

How I'd prospect this list

Filter on TechnologyChecker.io for VitePress, keep rows detected on docs., developer. or help. hostnames, and drop anything without a company match unless the domain clearly belongs to a product. Then open with the docs: "Your developer docs at docs.yourcompany.com run VitePress with local search; here's what search analytics would show you about what developers can't find." For a competitive angle, the 110 domains running Astro and VitePress together are teams with two front-end stacks to maintain, and a tool that works across both has an easy story there.
