For Documentation

Docs that actually
show what to do.

Good documentation has screenshots. Great documentation has annotated screenshots with numbered steps. Quick Gen makes both fast enough that you'll actually do it instead of writing another wall of text.

The right tools for
documentation screenshots.

Numbered callouts

Place auto-incrementing numbered markers on your screenshot to label each step. "Click 1, fill in 2, submit 3" reads instantly — no paragraph of instructions needed.

Arrows and shapes

Point at the exact button, menu item, or field the user needs to interact with. Circle important areas, draw rectangles around sections. Visual directions that anyone can follow.

Auto-save to folder

Point Quick Gen at your docs asset folder. Every screenshot is automatically saved with a timestamp. No manual "save as" step — just capture and move on. Rename later.

Multiple output formats

Save as PNG for lossless quality in docs, JPG for smaller file sizes on the web, WebP for modern docs sites, or base64 for inline embedding in markdown.

Blur sensitive content

Documentation screenshots often show real user data, internal URLs, or configuration values. Blur them before including in public-facing docs.

Video walkthroughs

Some processes are easier to show than describe. Record a screen region with mic narration for tutorials, onboarding guides, or complex multi-step workflows.

Works with any docs platform

Quick Gen outputs standard image formats that work everywhere — Notion, Confluence, GitBook, Docusaurus, ReadMe, plain markdown READMEs, or any CMS that accepts image pastes.

Since every capture goes to your clipboard, inserting a screenshot into your docs is literally Ctrl+Q, select, switch to your editor, Ctrl+V. The image is embedded.
