Why teams pick WriteHow

Stop typing guides by hand

Record a workflow and AI writes the steps and captures the screenshots — minutes instead of an afternoon in Notion.

Screenshots & translation built in

WriteHow auto-captures, annotates, blurs sensitive data, and translates into 50+ languages — things you'd do manually in Notion.

Works with Notion, not against it

Publish finished guides straight into your Notion workspace, so your team keeps one home for docs.

WriteHow and Notion together

This isn't really either/or. Notion is a fantastic place to store documentation; WriteHow is the fastest way to create step-by-step how-to guides — and it publishes them into Notion. If you're tired of manually screenshotting and writing guides in Notion, WriteHow automates that part.
