Record a guide

Do the task once. Get the steps, and keep the video.

Record your screen or upload a video. SOPCompass finds the moments that matter, writes the steps with screenshots and keeps the original video in the SOP.

Software how-tos without the screenshot grind

Documenting a click-path by hand means pausing, capturing, cropping and pasting over and over. Instead, record yourself doing it once. SOPCompass looks for the frames where the screen actually changed, skips the stretches where nothing happened, and turns them into steps with images.

  • Record right in the app or upload a video you already have
  • Narrate as you go and your words shape the written steps
  • Every step and screenshot stays editable before you save

The video stays, and every step can play its moment

SOPCompass keeps the original video in the SOP, and each step gets a Watch this step button that jumps the video to the moment that step happened. Readers get the written steps for skimming and the real recording when they need to see it done.

  • Videos up to 500 MB are kept in the SOP
  • Watch this step jumps to the right moment
  • Narration is transcribed in your browser, on your own machine

Perfect for tool rollouts and CRM settings

New software, a changed setting, a report someone has to pull every month: these are exactly the SOPs that go stale fastest. Re-record when the screen changes and the guide is current again in minutes.

Record a guide: common questions

What kind of videos work?

Screen recordings of someone doing a task work best, especially with narration. Talking-head video without a screen is better handled by audio import.

Can I edit the screenshots?

You can swap or remove images on any step, and edit every title and instruction before and after saving.

Does my narration get uploaded to be transcribed?

No. Speech is transcribed in your browser. The video itself is uploaded so it can play in the SOP. For a video over 300 MB, paste a transcript instead.

How is this different from SOPCompass Capture?

Capture is a Chrome extension that writes a step for each click as you work in a web app. Recording works for anything on your screen, including desktop apps, and keeps the video. Use whichever fits the task.
