Guidesnap
Turn screen recordings into polished PDF guides in minutes
Guidesnap turns screen recordings into polished PDF guides. Upload a walkthrough: AI transcribes narration, detects steps, captures screenshots at the right moments, and ships a ready-to-share PDF in minutes. Edit steps in the browser and rebuild without re-uploading. For onboarding, SOPs, tutorials, and product docs.
Hey Product Hunt, I'm Alexey Murmulev, founder of Guidesnap 👋🏻
The honest version: this started with a complaint from my wife.
She works in IT and kept hitting the same wall: a 60-minute screen recording someone actually needed to follow. Watch, pause, screenshot, type, repeat. Every week. If she was losing hours to it, plenty of people were too.
I went looking for a tool to solve it. Everything was either a clunky browser extension or priced like enterprise software. Nothing that just took a finished recording and gave back a polished PDF, simple enough for anyone who sits through video calls.
So I built Guidesnap. Upload a screen recording → AI transcribes the narration, detects the real steps, grabs screenshots at the right moments, and ships a clean PDF guide in minutes. Step looks off? Edit it in the browser and rebuild, no re-uploading.
Who it's for: onboarding docs, SOPs, internal playbooks, product tutorials, customer how-tos. Built for anyone who explains software on screen and needs something shareable, not just another Loom link.
Recorded a quick Loom-style walkthrough and had a clean PDF with steps and screenshots ready before my coffee got cold. The browser editor actually made fixing a mislabeled step painless without redoing the whole capture.
The step editor looks solid, but adding a way to mark certain steps as "optional" or "advanced" with a visual badge in the PDF would help when guides get long. Readers skimming for the basics would appreciate being able to skip ahead.
I record a LOT of product demos, and the worst part was always what came after: writing separate step-by-step docs so customers wouldn't have to rewatch a 20-min video to find one moment. GuideSnap kills that whole step and turns the demo itself into the documentation. Didn't expect a tool like this to exist yet, honestly.
The customer-side win is even bigger. Mine used to scrub through long recordings hunting for the one relevant part. Giving them a guide they can scan instead removes so much friction. Already planning to share this with my team🙌🏻 Congrats on the launch!
Question: is there an HTML/rich-text editor for the generated steps? Would love to bold key terms and add numbered or bulleted lists so steps are easier to scan. Already possible, or on the roadmap?
honestly this looks super useful for our onboarding docs, one thing that would help a lot is letting you brand the PDF with a custom logo and color scheme so it actually looks like it came from us and not just some generic template
One thing I'd love is a way to auto-translate guides into other languages using the same screenshots. Our team is spread across three countries and we end up duplicating docs for everyone. Would save us a ton of time.
Love how it rebuilds the PDF in the browser without re-uploading — that little detail saves so much friction when tweaking steps after a fresh take.
