Cherryleaf – Clear documentation and procedures for people and AI

Cherryleaf provides technical writing, content engineering, and training services that help organisations create clear, accurate, maintainable content for users, teams, and AI-enabled systems

Our Technical Authors and consultants write, improve, and manage technical documentation, API and developer docs, online help, policies and procedures, knowledge bases, training content, and AI-aware documentation workflows.

Your customers, developers, staff, and support teams rely on documentation to get work done. When it is unclear, out of date, hard to find, or poorly structured, people make mistakes, support teams get overloaded, and product adoption suffers.

Clear instructions build confidence, reduce support costs, and make products, processes, and systems easier to understand, use, and support.

Cherryleaf helps you give people the information they need, while freeing your team to focus on the work they do best.

Cherryleaf Technical Author/technical writing online training course (Amber)

I attended a job interview which included a written exercise where I had to jot down how I would go about designing and presenting information for the users of the service unit I was applying to. I could not believe my luck, it was as if the interviewer had designed it with the contents of this course in mind, and, as a result, I got the job!

Cherryleaf Technical Author/technical writing online training course (Emma)

There is something new to learn for most technical authors who are in the early stages of their career. Overall, I would say that the course did benefit me, and I can see myself revisiting parts of it in the future.

Technical Author/technical writing online training course (Karl)

I thought it was an excellent course – very thought-provoking and useful. The exercises were enjoyable and really helped, far beyond simply reading from a book about the tasks involved in the job. And I greatly appreciate all your advice and support.

I’m very pleased with the enhancements to the Help System. You created very clear topics for some areas that I find difficult to explain. You also identified a number of ‘bugs’ with the current version that have now been fixed. This just continues to improve the product.
