Work Instruction & SOP Software for Robotics and Automation
Precision assembly and commissioning only work when everyone does it the same way. SOPX turns a phone recording of a build or a deployment into a structured work instruction, keeps every version current as the hardware iterates, and gives the tech on site the exact steps by link or QR so every deployment matches the last one.

The Challenges
Shadowing works at five people and breaks at fifteen
When the team was small, everyone learned the build by watching the person next to them. As you scale, there aren't enough seniors to shadow and nothing is written down, so new hires guess.
Every deployment depends on whoever is on site
Two techs commission the same cell two different ways because the sequence was never captured. Alone on site, a newer tech has no one to check with, so the result depends on who showed up.
The know-how is stuck in one senior engineer
The person who knows how the build and commissioning really go is the one you can't pull off the job to write it up. So it never happens, and the whole team stays dependent on one person.
How SOPX Solves This
Turn a phone video into a build and deployment work instruction
Record the engineer assembling a unit or commissioning a cell on a phone. AI splits it into steps, each with a trimmed clip, an AI-written title, and a description. A draft is ready in minutes, no typing and no writing it up after the job.
Every deployment the same, whichever tech is on site
Share the exact steps by link or QR so the tech on site follows the same sequence every time, even alone. Full-screen mode walks through each step, so commissioning matches the last one and assembly stays consistent as operators change.
Keep it current as the hardware iterates
Hardware changes, and the work instruction keeps up. Edit once and everyone gets the latest version, while older revisions stay on record. Add arrows and callouts to point at the exact connector, fixture, or torque point on this revision.
Relevant Use Cases
Video to SOP
Video SOP software turns a process recording into a structured, step-by-step SOP, and AI writes each step from the footage. Film any process on a phone or screen recording, and AI turns it into a SOP where every step has a trimmed clip, a title, and a description. No writing, no editing software. Then edit it, translate it into 50+ languages, version it, and share it by link or QR, all in one workspace.
Learn more →Process Standardization
Process variation drives quality issues, waste, and errors. Standardize every task with visual SOPs generated from your best methods, accessible at every workstation.
Learn more →Work Instructions
Generate visual, step-by-step work instructions from process videos in minutes. Accessible on any device, in any language. No more unread manuals.
Learn more →Knowledge Capture
SOPX is tribal knowledge software: record your experts doing the tasks they already do every day, and AI turns the footage into structured, shareable SOPs. The expert keeps working, not authoring docs.

Operations Manager
You do not have hours to write procedures, and your best operators should not either. They film the job on a phone, AI drafts a clear step-by-step SOP, and you review it in minutes. The line keeps running when someone is out.
Learn more →Production Supervisor / Team Lead
You answer the same questions every shift, and your best operators lose time to it too. Film the job once, let AI draft a step-by-step visual work instruction, and point your team to one link they open right at the workstation.
Learn more →Continuous Improvement / Lean Manager
Your best operator should not lose an afternoon writing work instructions. Film the current best method, let AI draft structured steps in under 10 minutes, and when you improve the standard the update reaches every shift at once.
