Helpable is employee handbook software for rules, policies and practical answers in one place. Helpable keeps your handbook in an internal knowledge base with clear categories, lets people confirm the policies that matter and shows the current version on every phone and laptop.
Most handbooks are written once, sent around and then slowly go out of date.
The handbook is a long file in a shared folder. People ask a colleague, and the colleague remembers the old rule.
A new leave rule goes out by email. Half the team reads it, and the file in the folder still has last year's text.
When a policy really matters, such as safety or privacy, you have no simple way to see who has read the current version.
On day one they receive the whole handbook at once, with no order and no check that the key rules landed.
Five steps that turn your handbook into something people read and keep reading.
Add your current handbook file or a link, and the AI writer drafts an article from it. You check the text and publish.
Sort pages into categories and nest pages under pages. Schedule a new rule to go live on the day it starts.
Put policies people must know, such as safety or privacy, in a procedure and request a read confirmation.
Start from the company policies training template and assign it automatically to every new team member.
Check per person who confirmed which version of a policy and who finished the policies training.
Clear categories, policies people confirm and one search box, so the right answer is always a few seconds away.
Group your handbook into categories such as working here, leave and sickness and safety. People click to the page they need and see when it was last updated.
Put a must-read policy in a procedure and ask for a read confirmation. You see who acknowledged the current version, and who is still pending.
Type a word and find the matching article, procedure and training lesson in one list.
The parts of Helpable that turn a handbook into a living reference for your team.
Put the handbook in categories with pages under pages, so people find the leave rule or the dress code in one search. It opens on any phone.
Put must-read policies in a procedure and ask everyone to confirm with one click. You see per person who confirmed which version, so you know whom to remind.
Schedule a new rule to go live on the first of the month and keep earlier versions in the history. You can always look back at what a rule said before.
Start from the Company policies template on conduct, leave and expenses, adapt it and assign it to new hires. The handbook becomes part of onboarding.
Turn the current PDF handbook or a Word file into draft articles you check and publish. The old handbook moves over quickly.
Translate handbook pages with the AI writer for colleagues who read another language best, and check every version first. Everyone understands the same rules.
HR and the office manager write and publish, and everyone else reads. Rules only change through the people responsible for them.
Employees ask a question in their own words and get a short answer from your own articles, procedures and documents, with a link to the exact page it came from. You stop being the person everyone asks.
Upload your handbook or policies. Helpable makes them searchable right away and suggests articles you check, change and approve. Nothing goes live until you say so.
When the answer isn't there, Helpable says so and the question lands on your list of things to write down, with no name attached.
Teams that have outgrown a handbook in a PDF or a shared folder.
Cleaning, installation and field staff who rarely see the office and still need the current rules.
In practice: Cleaners who never visit the office read the new sick-leave rule on their phone and confirm it with one click. You see per person who confirmed, so the team lead knows exactly whom to call.
See howHospitality, retail and warehouse teams where someone new starts every month.
In practice: Every new store employee reads the dress code, break rules and cash rules in week one, as part of their onboarding training. The key rules end with a read confirmation, so the printed folder can go.
See howAgencies, accountancy firms, real estate offices and recruiters with rules on clients, data and time off.
In practice: A new hire looks up the expense rule on their own and finds the current text, with the date it last changed. The office manager stops answering the same leave question every week.
See howFast-growing teams that onboard new engineers, support and sales staff every month and keep changing their policies.
In practice: The remote work policy changes for the third time this year. You publish the new version with a one-line summary, announce it and see by Friday who has confirmed it.
See howTeams with a code of conduct and privacy rules that every person has to confirm.
In practice: Every childcare worker and substitute confirms the code of conduct and the privacy rules before their first day on the group. When someone asks, you show the list per person and per version.
