Guidely for Non‑Technical Users in Complex SaaS
Many SaaS products are powerful, but not always intuitive. If you’re a non-technical user, you might know what you want to do — but still feel stuck trying to find where it lives in the interface.
Why “simple tasks” don’t feel simple
In complex SaaS, even common tasks can be confusing when:
- Settings are buried in multiple layers
- The UI changes and screenshots in docs don’t match
- You’re afraid of clicking the wrong thing
- You don’t do the task often enough to remember it
What Guidely changes
Guidely is a browser extension that guides you step by step inside the product. It’s designed to reduce guesswork by focusing on:
- The next step (not ten steps at once)
- Where to click (when possible)
- What to look for if the UI doesn’t match perfectly
A simple way to ask for help (that works)
Instead of asking “Where is this setting?” try:
- “I want to change my notification settings”
- “I need to invite a teammate”
- “I’m trying to update my availability”
Clear destination first; then follow the steps one by one.
What Guidely is not
Guidely is not:
- A replacement for documentation
- A tour or onboarding system created by the SaaS company
- A tool that takes control of your account or clicks without consent
It’s guidance that stays with you in the UI.
FAQ
