Guide Creator by HubSpot Extension

Create walkthrough guides that show your people how to get things done. Add the Guide Creator Chrome extension and start documenting your processes right away.

When you start capturing, Guide Creator grabs a screenshot each time you click. Once you're finished, your step-by-step guide documenting every step of your process is ready to edit and share.

CREATE BEAUTIFUL HOW-TO GUIDES
The Guide Creator editor automatically labels your steps and lays out your screenshots. Crop the images and adjust the wording to suit your audience — whether that's teammates looking for a hand, customers that want to get things done, or prospects looking to find out more about how you can help them.

SHARE YOUR GUIDE AGAIN AND AGAIN
Once you're happy with your guide, share a link to a webpage that can be accessed wherever your users are. No need to jump on a call and screenshare each time you need to share your knowledge.

If your guide is just for teammates, lock down access to keep things in-house. You have complete control over who can see your documentation.
