NINJA AI TOOL

📝 Build Onboarding Guides While You Work

If you’ve ever had to explain the same thing five times in a row, this one’s for you.

There’s a tool that lets you turn workflows into interactive, shareable guides in just a few clicks—no recording, editing, or code needed.

It’s perfect for onboarding new users, supporting customers, or walking someone through a tricky feature without writing out an entire manual.

What it can do:

  • Turn a walkthrough into a clean, interactive guide

  • Add AI-generated voiceovers to make your content easier to follow

  • Translate your guides into multiple languages instantly

  • Use conditional logic so the guide changes based on user input

  • Personalize content with dynamic variables (like names or roles)

  • See how your guides perform with built-in analytics

Who it’s great for:
SaaS teams, support teams, product trainers, and even solo founders trying to reduce repetitive how-to explanations.

One small heads-up:
The free version covers a lot, but advanced features like voiceovers and translations live in the paid plan—still worth a look if you use guides regularly.

🛠️ Get started on their free plan here—it’s quick to set up and surprisingly flexible.
