What you get

A full knowledge base, with far less writing

The AI writer in Helpable does the heavy writing work, so you can spend your time on checking and sharing what you know.

  • Your knowledge base filled fast

    Turn the manuals, price lists and notes on your drive into readable articles in an afternoon. Your customers and team find answers sooner.

  • You stay in control

    Every result lands in the editor as a draft. Nothing goes live until you have read it, changed what you want and pressed publish.

  • Articles people actually read

    Long documents become short, clear articles in plain words, with headings and steps. Readers get to the answer quickly.

  • Hours of writing saved

    Your experts spend their time checking a draft, and the blank page is gone. The AI writer handles the first version from your own files.

  • Knowledge stays in the company

    What lives in one person's head or an old document becomes an article everyone can find. Helpable turns those notes into clear text in your knowledge base.

  • Customers helped in their language

    People find answers in the language they speak. The AI writer translates an article into English, Dutch, German, French or Spanish, and you check it first.

Sound familiar?

The knowledge is there, it just never gets written down

Most small teams know exactly what should be in their knowledge base. Writing it is where it stalls.

  • Writing articles never makes it onto the list

    There is always something more urgent, so the knowledge base stays half empty.

    With Helpable Add a file or a link and Helpable writes a first draft in moments. You only need to check it.

  • Everything lives in long documents

    Manuals and PDFs are full of answers, and nobody reads them from start to end.

    With Helpable The AI writer turns long documents into short articles with clear headings, steps and a summary.

  • Articles read like a manual

    Text written by experts is often too long, too formal or full of internal terms.

    With Helpable Pick a tone and length, or ask Helpable to shorten, simplify or rewrite an article in your own words.

  • Customers ask in other languages

    Writing every article again in another language takes days.

    With Helpable Translate an article into English, Dutch, German, French or Spanish and check the result before you publish.

Works better together

From a first draft to a trained team, all in one place

The AI writer is the start. Your colleagues add what they know, and the finished article becomes training for your team.

  • Write it with AI, finish it together

    The AI writer drafts the article from your files. Invite a colleague who knows the work to help write it, and ask a teammate to review it before it goes live. The article is right the first time it reaches readers.

    Team and roles
  • Polish it in the editor

    The draft lands in the article editor, kept apart from the published version. Add images, steps and tips, schedule the publish date, and restore an older version if you need to.

  • Turn it into a training with AI

    Once your articles are published, pick them and let Helpable make a training with lessons, learning goals and quiz questions. Each lesson links to its sources, so new people learn from the same text.

Questions about the AI writer for help articles

Can't find your answer? We're happy to help.

What is an AI writer for help articles?

An AI writer for help articles turns information you already have into clear, readable articles for customers or your team. In Helpable, the AI writer sits inside the article editor and drafts, improves, shortens, summarizes or translates articles.

Which files can the Helpable AI writer use?

The Helpable AI writer reads PDF, Word, TXT, Markdown and CSV files and links to public web pages. You can add up to 10 sources per run.

Does Helpable publish AI articles automatically?

No. Every result from the Helpable AI writer lands in the editor as an unpublished change. You read it, edit it and decide yourself when it goes live.

Does Helpable store the files I upload to the AI writer?

No. Helpable uses your sources to write that draft and does not store them. Your data is stored in the EU.

In which languages can Helpable write help articles?

Helpable writes and translates articles in English, Dutch, German, French and Spanish. You choose the language for each run.

Can I use the AI writer for an internal knowledge base?

Yes. The AI writer in Helpable works for public help centers and for internal handbooks for your team. You can later turn those articles into training with AI as well.

AI writer for help articles and knowledge base content

How the AI writer in Helpable turns your own files into help articles, how it fits with the rest of your knowledge, and how it compares to other tools.

What is an AI writer for help articles?

Helpable's AI writer turns the documents and links you already have into clear articles for your team or your customers. You add PDF, Word, TXT, Markdown or CSV files or links to public web pages, up to 10 per run, and choose the language, tone and length. A few moments later the draft is in the editor.

The gain is a full knowledge base with far less writing. Your experts spend their time checking a draft, and the blank page is gone. Your sources are used for that one draft and are not stored afterward, and your data stays in the EU.

How to write a help article with AI in four steps

With Helpable you go from a file to a published article in four steps. Open a new or existing article in the article editor and add your sources. Then type your instructions in your own words, or dictate them.

Next, pick a tone (neutral, friendly or formal) and a length (short, medium or long). The draft appears as an unpublished change. Read it, change what you want, and publish now or at a set date and time.

The same writer also improves, shortens, expands or summarizes an article, or turns it into an FAQ. You can translate articles into English, Dutch, German, French or Spanish and check each version first.

Using the AI writer with your knowledge base and training

Helpable keeps the AI writer in the same tool as your knowledge, procedures and training, so one draft can do several jobs. Articles go into your internal handbook or public help center in the knowledge base, and one search finds them next to procedures and training.

Published articles can become training: pick them in training with AI and Helpable writes lessons, learning goals and quiz questions with links to the source. Employees can also ask a question and get a short answer from your own articles, with a link to the page it came from. The AI knowledge base page shows how that works.

An AI writer for teams in many sectors

Helpable's AI writer helps any team that has its know-how in files and too little time to write it out. What matters is how you work with that knowledge.

Teams that serve customers, such as customer service, webshops and SaaS companies, turn manuals and product notes into a public help center. Teams that work on site, such as cleaning and facility services, hospitality and installation and maintenance, turn handbooks and checklists into an internal handbook new people can read in the browser on their phone.

Agencies, care providers, childcare, retail and offices use it the same way: the know-how already exists, and the AI writer makes it readable.

An alternative to Notion, Confluence or Guru for help articles

Helpable fits when you want an AI writer and a knowledge base in the same tool as your training and procedures. Notion and Confluence are broad workspaces for docs, wikis and projects, each with its own AI that answers from your workspace. Guru focuses on verified company knowledge and answers with sources inside the tools a company already uses.

Helpable adds what a small team needs to put that knowledge to work: training with quizzes and certificates, procedures with read confirmations, and AI answers from your own knowledge with the source. The app is in English and Dutch, your data is stored in the EU, and you can try it for 14 days with no card. Compare the details on the Notion alternative, Confluence alternative and Guru alternative pages.

AI writer pricing: which plan do you need?

Helpable includes the AI writer on every plan, from Business to Business Max. Each AI action uses credits from your monthly budget: 250 on Business, 750 on Business Plus and 1,500 on Business Max. If you write a lot in one month, you can buy an extra credit pack.

The plans differ mainly in team size and extras: 3 to 9 team members included, training, practice conversations with AI and 3 knowledge bases from Business Plus, and automatic assignment rules, learning insights per team and up to 10 knowledge bases on Business Max. See all details on the pricing page.
