What is 20paths?

20paths is an online platform for creating interactive how-to guides, standard operating procedures (SOPs), and documentation. Rather than writing static documents, you build step-by-step guides that include screenshots, annotations, and interactive elements. The tool is designed for teams and individuals who need to document processes quickly without technical knowledge. It's useful for internal training materials, customer-facing guides, and knowledge bases where clarity and visual demonstration matter more than lengthy written explanations.
