Regular expressions are one of the most powerful tools for technical writers — yet often underused. They can turn hours of manual editing into seconds: - bulk replace patterns, - clean markup, - extract data, - and automate repetitive documentation tasks. If you work with large docs, APIs, or structured content, regex is a skill worth mastering. 👉 Read the full guide here

📄 Google Docs works great when documentation is small. A few guides. A few contributors. A few updates. But things change when documentation grows across products, teams, languages, and publishing channels. Content gets duplicated, updates become harder to track, and maintaining consistency turns into a challenge. At that point, you start needing a more structured way to manage content. In our latest article, we compare Google Docs and ClickHelp, exploring why many growing documentation teams eventually move from document-based workflows to a dedicated CCMS. 👉 Read the full comparison

Something shifted in how technical writers think about video, and it's mostly because the editing part got a lot less painful. AI tools like Descript, Synthesia, HeyGen, and Guidde are making it possible to go from a rough screen recording to a polished, captioned, multilingual video, without a production team or a full day of editing. That changes what's realistic for documentation teams. Voiceovers, captions, avatar-based walkthroughs, workflow capture: things that used to require specialists now fit into a solo writer's process. And once the video exists, embedding it into ClickHelp is straightforward – via URL or an HTML block. This article breaks down the tools, the workflow, and what actually matters when adding video to a documentation project. Read the full article 🎬

AI agents are no longer just “search tools for documentation.” Something more interesting is happening: they’re starting to actually interact with documentation systems, not just pull answers out of them. MCP (Model Context Protocol) is what makes this possible. It gives AI agents a structured way to connect to a documentation portal — so they can use context, access information more intelligently, and work with the content instead of just reading it. That shifts the whole idea of documentation. It’s no longer just a place where information lives. It becomes something closer to an environment where AI can operate. And by the way, ClickHelp already supports MCP, which makes this kind of integration much easier to implement in real documentation workflows. We’re getting closer to documentation that behaves less like “pages” and more like a system that can be worked with. Worth a read if you’re into AI, developer experience, or technical writing.

A user opens your product for the first time. Gets confused. Opens Google. Closes your app. Sound familiar? In-app help is what prevents that. It’s guidance built directly into the software (tooltips, step-by-step walkthroughs, onboarding tours, embedded knowledge bases) available exactly when and where users need it. In this article: • What in-app help actually includes • Which formats work for which situations • Key features to look for in tools • Side-by-side comparison of Pendo, Whatfix, WalkMe, UserGuiding and more 📖 Read here

Most documentation portals are invisible to AI tools. Not because the content is bad. Because the platform serves HTML that AI assistants can't reliably parse: navigation, scripts, sidebars, all wrapped around the few paragraphs that actually answer the question. As a result, users ask ChatGPT about your product and get a confident but incorrect answer. Or no answer at all. There are three things that actually fix this at the platform level: - clean content delivery, - Markdown access, - and a machine-readable index. None of them require changing how you write documentation. We wrote about what's breaking and what changes when you fix it at the source. 👉 Read here

When teams talk about software architecture, they often think about diagrams, frameworks, and system design. But there’s one
When teams talk about software architecture, they often think about diagrams, frameworks, and system design. But there’s one critical piece that often gets overlooked: documentation. Without clear architecture docs, important knowledge stays in conversations, chats, or in the heads of a few engineers. Over time, this creates confusion, slows onboarding, and makes system changes much riskier than they should be. Good architecture documentation helps answer essential questions: • How is the system structured? • Why were certain design decisions made? • How do components interact? • What should new team members understand first? A well-documented architecture becomes a shared map for the whole team — developers, architects, managers, and stakeholders. It improves communication, reduces misunderstandings, and makes scaling much easier. This article explains what effective architecture documentation should include and how to make it actually useful in real projects. Read the full guide here ✍🏼
