# Job aids

## Job aids your team actually keeps open

Record the task once. Clueso produces a step-by-step job aid with screenshots of the real system, plus a short video for the people who would rather watch.

## A job aid is a by-product, not a project

- **Generated from the recording** — Clueso captures each step and drafts the instructions, so you edit a draft instead of writing from scratch.

- **Screenshots of the real system** — Every step shows the actual screen, captured automatically as you record.

- **A video beside every aid** — Same capture, both formats. Watch it once, keep the aid open after.

- **150+ languages** — Localize the aid and the video together for every site.

- The steps for one job, start to finish.

- The condensed version for a trained user.

- What to do before anyone is fluent.

- The ten things people always ask.

- For desks and shop floors.

- The aid, where the work happens.

Record it once. Get the aid and the video.

## Frequently asked questions

### What is the difference between a job aid and a full training module?

A job aid is used during the task, not before it — one page, one job, no narrative. Clueso generates it from the same recording that produces the training video.

### Can we brand and print them?

Yes. Clueprints apply your brand, and the written guide exports for print or publishes to a branded help centre.

### How do we keep a hundred aids current?

The Clueso agent detects which aids a change affected and updates them. Each aid is tied to its recording, so the update replaces the clip for the step that changed and the rest of the aid stays as written.

### Can we generate guides for routine employee tasks like submitting expenses or booking time off?

Yes. Record the task once in the system people actually use and you get the step-by-step aid and a short video from the same capture — which is usually faster than writing the aid would have been.

### Do job aids update by themselves when the process changes?

Where the Clueso agent is connected to your product’s codebase, yes — it detects what changed and updates the aids that change affected. Otherwise each aid is tied to its recording, so an update means swapping the clip for the step that changed and refreshing: minutes rather than a rewrite.
