The video speaker challenge begins

The speakers talk about their presentations in the video and then pass the baton on to others.

 ‚Prompt Analytics: Identifying and fixing content gaps’ from Selvaraaju Murugesan

Given the prominence of chatbots across many documentation sites, it is important for technical writers to harness the power of analytics by analysing all prompts in a privacy-centric way. Unlike lexical search analytics whereby technical writers only get list of keywords, prompt analytics provide a clear intent of the “ASK”. Analysing all prompts entered in your chatbot helps technical writers to quickly identify knowledge gaps, address trending topics, and fix the documentation gaps. Moreover, understanding prompt drift helps technical writers how customer behaviour is changing and it help them fix content accordingly.

‚Docs-as-Code: Creating Professional Software Documentation’ from Maia Reichert-Baisch and Valerie Schipka

Managing documentation in fast-paced development environments is challenging, but the Docs-as-Code approach offers a modern solution by applying software development practices to documentation. This session introduces you to the fundamentals of static site generators (SSGs) and demonstrates how open source tools like MkDocs can turn plain text into professional, user-friendly documentation websites. We will walk you through the whole setup in a live tutorial, from installation to the integration of your documentation into a continuous delivery environment. By the end of this tutorial you will have an up and running documentation website. Whether you're a technical writer, developer, or part of an agile team, you will leave this session with practical insights on how to create cost-effective, agile documentation solutions using only open source tools. Join Valerie Schipka and Maia Reichert-Baisc at tcworld conference 2025 on November 11 for the tutorial ‘Docs-as-Code: Creating Professional Software Documentation with Static Site Generators’ to gain practical insights on how to create cost-effective, agile documentation solutions using only open source tools.

Artificial Intelligence

To what extent can technical communication  and the systems used there benefit from AI?  Automation of intelligent behaviour and machine learning can be transferred to technical communication and support the semantic networking of information.
 

 

Content Creation

The synergies between user information and learning content are great. Technical communication can also benefit from the latest developments in training, because the use of interactive media in particular is becoming increasingly important.

Career & Young Technical Writers

Individual Development plays an increasingly important role in your career. Learn more about Stress Management, Self­Coaching, CreativityMethods and new career opportunities for Technical Writers. 

 

Management & Leadership

Above a certain number of employees and importance of the tasks, companies set up their own teams or even departments for technical communication. In addition to an overview of all technical topics, management and leadership skills are also required to head these departments. 

Intelligent Delivery of User Information

The dynamic provision of user information based on use cases is the future of technical communication: Individualized information at the right time in the right place, in the medium of choice. Challenges in information creation will consist of structured authoring, Component Content Management, metadata, intelligent provision, use cases and user experience.
 

Language & Translation Technologies

Experts who produce and translate texts cannot do without the appropriate supporting technology. Translation management systems, translation memories and (AI-supported) machine translation systems are the most important tools. But technologies that support the workflow or analyse the quality of texts and translations are also very helpful today. Experts report on what these technologies can do and how they can be used effectively. 

Mobile Documentation

Supplying technical information for mobile  devices (smartphones, tablets) is turning into an important driver for technical communication. Find out more about communication strategies for mobile documentation, business model  generation, mobile browser versions, app  programming, user­friendly design and the role of technical writers.

 

 

Legal Requirements and Standards

Get basic knowledge, and stay up­to­date on the newest developments in contractual law, product liability law and product safety law, as well as on the most important national and international standards.
 

 

Software Documentation

In developer and software documentation, application programming interfaces, or APIs, are documented. For example, it demonstrates how API documentation can be automatically generated from source code. You will learn about the key standards associated with developing information for users of software and software systems and how these can be applied in your daily work.

 

Terminology

Consistent terminology is a quality criterion for good and intelligible technical information. Experts show how to establish and manage a corporate terminology, what software to use for that, and what organizational precautions to take.

 

Technical Translation

High quality, as cheap as possible and preferably delivered yesterday? In contrast, specialized expertise, the mastery of various tools, knowledge of the legal framework and liability risks of technical translators. The topic area “Technical Translation” highlights the various aspects.
 

 

 

User Experience & Accessibility

Does your content strike the right chord with  users? Do your offerings successfully pull in  clients? With user experience analyses, you can test whether technical communication is reaching people. These allow you to fine­tune your content to user types and use scenarios and optimize user interfaces and navigation paths.
 

 

 

Visual Communication

Lectures inform about the basics of virtual  communication, import of CAD­data for graphics production, and the importance of typography in texts. In addition, you will learn how to create and expediently utilize 3D animation, utility films, product videos, and learning videos.
