AI Documentation Tool: Transform Workflow Recordings into Professional Docs in Minutes

One of the biggest challenges for modern teams is creating clear, professional documentation since process documentation is slow and quickly becomes outdated. The hours spent on capturing screenshots, writing step-by-step guides, and formatting manuals get thrown into a hole when the product changes.

DeepGuide solves this with an AI documentation tool that turns a single workflow recording into multiple polished guides—ready to publish in minutes.


Why Manual Documentation Slows Teams Down

  • Writing and formatting docs takes hours (sometimes days).
  • Screenshots and step lists are tedious to maintain.
  • Most knowledge bases and user guides become outdated fast.

This documentation bottleneck hurts customer success, onboarding, and internal training.


What Makes DeepGuide Different

DeepGuide automates the entire process. Instead of writing, you simply record your workflow once. Our AI does the rest:

  • Automatic segmentation: Breaks long workflows into logical topics.
  • Polished drafts: Each segment becomes a structured article with screenshots and explanations.
  • Multi-output: Publish to web, export to PDF, or share instantly.
  • Scalable: One recording = many professional documents.

How to Create Documentation from Workflow Recordings (Step-by-Step)

  1. Record your workflow
    Open the DeepGuide browser extension and capture your workflow in real time.

  2. AI segmentation
    DeepGuide automatically analyzes your recording, splitting it into clear, topic-based steps.

  3. Draft generation
    Each step is converted into a polished article—formatted, consistent, and ready to use.

  4. Publish instantly
    Export docs to your knowledge base, PDF, or share with your team in minutes.


Benefits for Teams

  • 10x faster documentation compared to manual writing.
  • Consistent formatting and tone across every article.
  • Always up-to-date—easily re-record when workflows change.
  • Ideal for SaaS, customer success, and internal training.

Real Example: From One Recording to Many Docs

Imagine recording a SaaS onboarding flow:

  • Create an account
  • Configure settings
  • Invite teammates

Traditionally, you’d need three separate guides. With DeepGuide, one recording instantly generates:

  • Creating Your Account
  • Configuring Settings
  • Inviting Teammates

That’s hours of documentation work, done in minutes.


Looking Ahead
