How do you explain a route to someone who has never seen the run before? Is the hard part remembering every skip, or putting them in an order a new runner can actually follow? The Speedrunning Route Explainer turns your own understanding of a route into something another runner can learn from.
Short answer: The Speedrunning Route Explainer is a free AI tool that turns a route description into a clear, structured explanation of the tricks, skips and split order, written for a runner who does not already know the category.
What is Speedrunning Route Explainer?
The Speedrunning Route Explainer is a free AI writing tool for speedrunners writing up a route for a wiki, a Discord resource channel or a newer runner learning the category. Describe the game, the category and the order of tricks and skips, and it drafts an explanation that walks through the route logically instead of assuming prior knowledge. It works for both a short route and a longer, multi-section category.
How Does Speedrunning Route Explainer Work?
Type the game, category and trick order into the prompt box, pick an engine from the model selector, then work through the advanced options before you hit generate. What comes back sits in the output card with a word count and reading time attached, ready to copy, share, or pull down as a TXT, Word or HTML file. Documenting several categories for the same game is where the history panel earns its keep, since every earlier draft stays there for reference.
Key Options
| Option | What it controls | Suggested starting point |
|---|---|---|
| Pace | How intense the explanation reads, from Relaxed through Extreme | Packed, it matches how tightly optimised most routes actually are |
| Duration | How much of the route to cover in one pass | 2-3 days, a good scope for one full category without splitting it up |
| Traveler Type | Who the explanation is written for, from Solo through Group | Solo, unless you are documenting a co-op or relay category |
| Adventure Level | How much risk and optimisation detail the explanation leans into | Push it higher for a route full of tight timing windows and precise tricks |
The remaining toggles, restaurant suggestions, transport tips, booking placeholders and weather notes, come from a general planning template, not a speedrunning one. Focus on Pace, Duration and Adventure Level instead.
What works well
- Turns a route you know by muscle memory into something a newer runner can actually follow
- Pace setting maps well onto how tightly optimised a route needs to read
- Useful for building out a wiki or resource channel across several categories
What to watch for
- The tool cannot verify a route works, only describe accurate tricks you have practised yourself
- A vague prompt like the fast route produces generic text, name the actual tricks and split order
Runners This Explainer Is Built For
A wiki editor documenting a category for the first time is the clearest fit, turning private notes into something a stranger can follow. Discord resource channels use it the same way, one write-up instead of scattered messages. It also suits a mentor walking a newer runner through their first attempt, with Traveler Type set to Solo.
Tips For A Route Explanation Newer Runners Can Follow
- List tricks in the exact order they happen, not by how impressive they are
- Name the split points a category uses
- Flag tricks that are optional or safer alternatives for beginners
Note Several advanced options come from a general planning template. Stick to Pace, Duration and Adventure Level for what actually matters here.
Tips And Common Mistakes
- Forgetting to regenerate after a route change, so the explainer still describes a skip nobody uses anymore
- Leaving the travel style toggles on by habit, they add noise instead of clarity here
- Assuming the reader knows jargon a genuinely new runner has not learned yet
EizTools does not put this tool behind a login, and the AI engine writing your explanation is a choice from a dropdown rather than a fixed default. If you need a personal log rather than an explanation aimed at other runners, the Speedrun Notes Generator is built for that shorter format.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the Speedrunning Route Explainer know my specific game's route?
No, it works from what you describe. Give it the actual tricks and split order from your own practice for an accurate explanation.
Can it explain a route to someone who has never speedrun the game before?
Yes, set Traveler Type to Solo and keep the explanation structured step by step for a reader with no prior category knowledge.
Should I use every advanced option available?
No, several toggles come from a general planning template and do not apply here, leave those off.
Is the Speedrunning Route Explainer free to use?
Yes, with nothing gated behind a plan. EizTools runs this tool without a login or a payment step, so documenting a whole game's category list costs the same as writing up just one.
Can it cover a co-op or relay category?
Yes, set Traveler Type to Group and describe how the route is split between runners for an explanation that reflects that structure.
A route only spreads through a community once someone takes the time to explain it clearly, not just run it well. Bring your actual tricks and split order, choose a pace that fits the category, and let the Speedrunning Route Explainer write the version a newer runner can learn from.
