Welcome

Every click, turned into a polished guide.

ClickToDoc records what you do in the browser and hands you back a clean, step-by-step walkthrough. Record, tidy, enhance with your own AI, export.

Step one

Hit record, then just do your task.

Every click, page change and keystroke becomes a captured step, screenshot and all. Narrate with Voice Notes, fold menu sequences into one numbered step with Multi-click, or press Alt+Shift+S for a manual snapshot.

Step two

Mark it up so it reads at a glance.

Arrows, highlights, numbered badges, speech-bubble callouts, focus dim, smart erase and blur. Turn on Smart zoom to crop tight on the click - or let your own AI annotate, describe and translate for you.

HTML DOCX Markdown PDF Images

Step three

Export it anywhere, in one click.

A self-contained HTML page, a Word DOCX, Markdown, a print-ready PDF, an animated GIF walkthrough, a ZIP of every step image, or AI-readable JSON. Everything is embedded: nothing to host, no attachments to chase.

Yours, only yours

It never leaves your browser.

100% local. No telemetry, no sign-in, no cloud. Switch on automatic backups to your Downloads folder so your work is always safe, entirely on your own machine.

Why ClickToDoc

Built for people who write instructions, not data.

Every feature exists to turn a click-by-click task into a document you'd be happy to send anyone, in less time than the screenshots alone used to take.

Enhance with your AI

Plug in OpenAI, Gemini, Claude, OpenRouter - or a fully local Ollama model. It polishes titles, writes descriptions, translates, annotates screenshots by sight and redacts sensitive data. You review every change; one undo reverts it all.

Many clicks, one step

Multi-click mode folds a whole dropdown-and-menu sequence into a single screenshot with numbered markers - and the AI can merge near-duplicate steps after the fact.

Narrate as you go

Turn on Voice Notes and everything you say lands on the step you're on, live - your spoken context becomes the written guide.

A real editor

Arrows (straight, curved, hand-drawn), highlights, boxes, numbered markers with leader tails, speech bubbles, blur, focus dim, zoom callouts and smart erase that blends into the background. Pixel-identical in every export.

Rearrange everything

Drag steps to reorder in the list or the grid view, insert headings, notes and images exactly where you are, duplicate steps, paste screenshots straight from your clipboard - and move or copy steps between workflows.

Fully customisable

Click-marker styles and colours, stroke widths, text sizes, per-step spotlight and smart zoom, Word templates from your own .docx, palettes, banners and logos - the guide looks like yours.

Export anywhere

Self-contained HTML, branded Word DOCX with a table of contents, print-ready PDF, Markdown, an animated GIF walkthrough, all images as ZIP - or a documented JSON that any AI agent can read and edit.

Local-first & private

No accounts, no servers, no telemetry. Sensitive fields are masked at capture; smart redact finds emails, cards and phone numbers. Even AI requests go straight from your machine to your provider - with your redactions burned in.

Backups, your way

Scheduled JSON backups to your own Downloads folder; restore on any machine. Optional publish to your own server and Google Drive upload for self-hosters. A desktop app records beyond the browser.
