Customer onboarding
Auto-generate screenshots for user guides, tutorials, and help documentation
Automatically generate up-to-date screenshots for product documentation, help centers, and onboarding tutorials.
The problem
Product documentation needs screenshots, but keeping them current is painful:
- UI changes constantly, making screenshots outdated
- Manual capture is tedious and inconsistent
- Different screen sizes and locales multiply the work
- Dark mode and themes require separate screenshots
Teams often let documentation screenshots fall out of date, hurting the customer experience.
How Allscreenshots helps
Automate screenshot capture from your live product. Keep documentation always current by regenerating screenshots as part of your build or deployment process.
- Always current — Screenshots update when your UI changes
- Consistent styling — Same viewport, zoom, and wait conditions every time
- Multi-locale support — Capture different language versions
- Theme variants — Generate light and dark mode screenshots
Use element selectors to capture specific UI components rather than full pages for cleaner documentation images.
Quick example
Capture a specific UI component for your docs:
curl -X POST https://api.allscreenshots.com/v1/screenshots \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"url": "https://app.yourproduct.com/settings",
"selector": "#billing-section",
"viewport": {"width": 1200, "height": 800},
"waitUntil": "networkidle"
}'Capture the same component in dark mode:
curl -X POST https://api.allscreenshots.com/v1/screenshots \
-H "Authorization: Bearer $API_KEY" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"url": "https://app.yourproduct.com/settings",
"selector": "#billing-section",
"darkMode": true,
"viewport": {"width": 1200, "height": 800}
