Users Won't Watch 10-Minute Screen Recordings for One Step

Loom videos aren't searchable—users get stuck and frustrated

The Screen Recording Problem

  • Record 10-minute Loom video, users need one 30-second step
  • Can't search screen recordings for specific feature instructions
  • Videos become outdated when UI changes—need to re-record everything
  • Users pause video every 5 seconds trying to follow along
  • No way to skim or jump to relevant sections

The Docsie Solution for Screen Recordings

  • Turn screen recordings into step-by-step how-to guides with screenshots
  • Users scan for the exact step they need—no video scrubbing

  • Searchable by feature, action, or error message

Why Docsie is Different

Not Just Transcription. True Video Intelligence.

Most tools just convert speech to text. Docsie's multimodal AI actually watches your videos—reading on-screen text, identifying UI elements, and understanding visual context.

Computer Vision Analysis

AI watches and understands video content—reads on-screen text, identifies UI elements, detects visual changes, and understands what's happening in each frame

Multimodal Context Understanding

Correlates what's being said with what's being shown. Understands technical terminology, product names, and industry jargon—no more 'sequel' instead of 'SQL'

Intelligent Visual Capture

Identifies important visual moments—UI changes, diagram reveals, key screens—and captures them as illustrations correlated with text

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about converting screen recordings to how-to guides

Screen Recording Support

Most Popular

Q: How do I get my screen recording into Docsie?

A: Download your Loom, Vidyard, or other screen recording as an MP4 file, then upload it to Docsie. We'll convert it to a searchable how-to guide with step-by-step instructions and screenshots.

Q: How does it know where to take screenshots?

A: Our AI watches the screen recording and detects meaningful UI changes—button clicks, menu selections, page transitions, form submissions. It captures screenshots at these key moments and adds them to your documentation with appropriate callouts.

Q: What if my screen recording has no audio narration?

A: No problem. Docsie's computer vision analyzes what's happening on screen—reading button labels, menu text, and form fields—to generate step-by-step instructions even without audio. The visual analysis is often more accurate than narration.

Editing & Maintenance

Q: What happens when my software UI changes?

A: Unlike videos that need complete re-recording, you can update individual screenshots and text in your how-to guide. Replace one outdated screenshot, adjust the step text, and republish—no need to re-record the entire workflow.

Q: Can I add my own screenshots or annotations?

A: Absolutely. The AI-generated guide is fully editable. Add custom screenshots, insert additional steps, add warning boxes, or include your own annotations. It's a starting point you can customize to match your documentation standards.
