Help+Manual, the renowned documentation software, has released its latest Version 10, introducing integrated support for ChatGPT, OpenAI Azure, DeepSeek, YandexGPT, and other compatible AI platforms.
While the interface may initially appear as a simple chat window, it offers much more: the AI integration can directly interact with the built-in XML editor. Users can now send formatted XML-text sections to ChatGPT for editing or translation and seamlessly reintegrate the revised sections back into their documentation. All formatting and metadata are preserved throughout the editing process. Generic responses from ChatGPT are converted from Markdown into the software’s proprietary XML format, ensuring smooth and consistent integration.
The AI interface is fully configurable and supports not only ChatGPT but also additional solutions such as OpenAI Azure, DeepSeek, and YandexGPT.

Version 10 also brings enhanced SVG support and introduces SnipSVG as its image editor. SnipSVG, our free and separately available image editing tool, offers powerful features for creating annotated screenshots. Images are saved in SVG format, allowing labels and annotations to remain fully editable.
With these new capabilities, Help+Manual Version 10 delivers advanced AI-driven editing features and robust SVG workflow enhancements for technical documentation teams and content creators.

- New AI Assistants: ChatGPT and DeepL Write
