WTFM: A Practical Guide for Standing Up Docs at a Startup

Support is underwater. Engineers spend half their day answering the same Slack questions. You just lost a deal because the prospect asked for documentation you don't have.

If any of this sounds familiar, WTFM is the book you need.

Written for founders, product managers, and engineers at startups — not professional technical writers — WTFM is a practical guide to standing up a documentation program from nothing. No big team. No dedicated budget. No prior experience required.

You'll learn how to:

  • Audit what you have, identify the gaps, and make a prioritized plan
  • Build a documentation culture without mandating or nagging
  • Write clearly for both human readers and AI systems
  • Structure and organize content so it stays findable and maintainable
  • Pick the right toolchain without overbuilding for a stage you haven't reached
  • Integrate AI as a workflow accelerator — not a replacement for good judgment
  • Automate the maintenance work that keeps docs from going stale
  • Make the business case for hiring a writer when you're ready

This book is about documentation as a program: the systems, habits, and culture that keep your docs accurate, useful, and alive as your product moves fast and your team scales.
