The fastest path from idea to implementation-ready docs
GuideWriter replaces hours of manual writing with a focused AI interview. You talk, it documents: complete with structured sections, acceptance criteria, and export-ready formatting.
Built to save you hours every week
Six capabilities that turn a 10-minute conversation into documentation your whole team can act on.
Natural conversations that extract real requirements
Our multi-phase interview engine adapts in real time. It moves through Discovery, Clarification, Technical, Refinement, and Completion phases, asking targeted follow-up questions based on your answers. No rigid forms or templates to fill out, just a conversation.
- 5-phase adaptive interview process
- Context-aware follow-up questions
- Automatic extraction of features, constraints, and success criteria
- Conversation history preserved for reference
AI-Powered Interviews
Ten specialized formats for every team
Whether you need a full enterprise document, a lean startup spec, a marketing requirements document, or a formal SRS, GuideWriter has a template built for your workflow. Each template defines the sections, prompts, and structure so the AI knows exactly what to ask for.
- Lean Startup, Technical Spec, User Stories, and Project Charter
- Feature Request for quick submissions; RFC for architecture decisions
- Marketing Requirements (MRD) and Business Requirements (BRD) for strategy and alignment
- Functional Requirements (FRD) and Software Requirements Spec (SRS) for engineering precision
