Waypoint — Step-by-Step Guide & How-To Creator

The knowledge that keeps things running lives in people's heads — and most how-tos skip the one step that actually matters. Waypoint turns anyone into a great explainer: clear, tested, step-by-step guides your readers can actually follow.

The results you'll feel

• Capture what's in your head — before the person who knows it leaves.
• Guides people can follow — one action per step, with the expected result spelled out.
• Cut the support questions — build troubleshooting trees that answer "what if it doesn't work?"
• Write clearly, on purpose — the Clarity Lab flags steps that are too long, undefined jargon and missing outcomes.

Everything it does

• Guide Builder — numbered steps with action, detail, tip/warning callouts, image placeholders, code blocks and an "expected result" per step.
• Walkthrough Mode — a reader view: one step at a time, progress, check-off and per-step troubleshooting.
• Troubleshooting Tree Builder — symptom → checks → causes → fixes as a decision flow.
• 20 Templates — software tutorial, hardware setup, recipe, DIY repair, onboarding task, API quickstart, runbook and more.
• Clarity Lab, Glossary, Prerequisites & Tools, Feedback QA checklist and a full Export Center (print, Markdown, HTML, CSV).

What's inside the download

• The Waypoint app — one self-contained offline HTML file
• A styled multi-sheet companion Excel workbook (guide register, step planner, troubleshooting matrix, charts)
