How to Create an SOP in 20 Minutes with AI Screen Recording
A practical workflow to move from raw clicks to a polished SOP without writing everything manually.
Start from a real task, not a template
The fastest SOPs are captured while someone performs a real workflow. Instead of writing from memory, record one complete run with the exact sequence used in production.
This gives you realistic screenshots, accurate timestamps, and fewer missing steps. Your SOP becomes a reflection of actual work, not an idealized flow.
Use AI for structure, then review for clarity
AI should organize your steps into a readable draft: actions, expected result, and notes. It should not be the final editor.
Assign one reviewer from operations and one from support. In one pass, remove jargon, add warnings, and define success criteria for each critical step.
Publish with ownership and revision dates
Every SOP needs an owner and a review frequency. Add a simple header with owner, last update, and a revision date to prevent outdated instructions.
When teams know who owns the document, updates happen faster and process drift is reduced.
