Tidy it until it reads
at a glance.

A step is one instruction and one picture. Edit until that is true: blur what should not be seen, point at the button, say what people get wrong, and cut what does not matter.

What does Edit do?

Chronika lets you edit and blur screenshots in how-to guides after recording. Rename, reorder, hide or duplicate steps, blur or crop what should not be seen, ring the button, and add tips, notes and alerts. If an AI provider is set up, it drafts the wording for you to review, apply and undo.

01Write-up

A first draft, written for you. Yours to change.

When AI is set up, a finished recording is written up from the clicks and your narration: a title, an introduction and the text of each step. The guide page also offers Write it up, which proposes a new version for you to read first.

  • Nothing changes until you apply the write-up
  • Undo puts the previous text back
  • Without AI, recordings still get sensible titles and step text
  • AI is optional. Your administrator picks the provider, or none

Proposed write-up

How to request a new laptop

Order a replacement or first laptop through the IT portal. IT gets everything it needs to prepare the machine.

  • Click “Hardware”
  • Click “Request” next to Laptop
  • Select “14-inch, 16 GB memory”
Apply Undo

02Mark up

Blur, crop, zoom and annotate

Open any screenshot and take out what the reader does not need. Then draw attention to the part that matters.

  • Blur and crop: burned into a new image, so the original pixels do not go out with the guide
  • Zoom in on the part of the screen that matters
  • Annotate with arrows, boxes, highlights, text, numbers and a spotlight
  • Pick from six annotation colors

03Callouts

Warn people where they usually slip

Some steps need a word of warning. Add a tip, a note or an alert between steps, and retitle or describe any step in your own words.

  • Tips, notes and alerts sit between steps and are not numbered
  • Every step has an editable title and an optional description
  • Callouts show in Guide Me and in every export

Tip

Over €1,500 needs your manager’s approval first.

Note

The sixteen-inch model is for developers and designers only.

Alert

Do not submit a second request while the first is waiting.

04Order

Put the steps in order, and drop the ones you do not need

Recordings capture what you did, including the scroll you did not need to show. Fix that in the list.

  • Reorder steps
  • Hide a step without deleting it
  • Duplicate a step
  • Delete one step or many, with a single Undo

Steps

  1. Click “Hardware”
  2. Click “Request” next to Laptop
  3. Scroll down the page
  4. Select “14-inch, 16 GB memory”

In the editor

Ask me to tighten the step titles, write the introduction, or add a tip where people tend to slip, and I will change the guide for you. I cannot share a guide or see your screenshots, and I need an AI provider, which is set by whoever runs your Chronika.

What you get

What changes in the guide

  • 01

    Control over every word

    AI proposes. You apply, edit or undo.

  • 02

    Cleaner screenshots

    Blur and crop produce a new image, not an overlay on the old one.

  • 03

    Warnings where they matter

    Tips, notes and alerts sit at the step where people trip.

  • 04

    A list you can fix

    Reorder, hide, duplicate and delete without re-recording.

Questions

About Edit

Do I need AI to use Chronika?
No. With no AI provider set, recordings still get sensible titles and step text, and everything in the editor works the same. AI only adds the written-up first draft.
Which AI providers can be used?
The provider is set by whoever runs the server. Anthropic, OpenAI-compatible services, Google and Ollama are supported, among others. You choose the provider, or none.
Can I undo an AI write-up?
Yes. The write-up is shown as a proposal first. Apply it when you like it, and Undo puts the earlier text back.
If I blur something, can a reader still get at it?
No. A blur is burned into a new image and the step points at that image, so the sensitive pixels are not shipped alongside it.
Can I add steps to a guide later?
Yes. The browser extension and the Windows app can both add steps to an existing guide.
