MakeSOP App VS Objects

MakeSOP App's answer

MakeSOP is the only SOP tool specifically designed to convert meeting recordings and training videos into professional SOPs automatically. While competitors like Scribe focus on screenshot-based documentation or Trainual focuses on training management, MakeSOP solves the specific problem of turning existing video content into written procedures.

Key differentiators: - Supports video files up to 1GB (handles full 1-hour meetings) - Converts video to SOP in 5-10 minutes using AI - No manual screenshot taking or step recording required - Works with any video source: Zoom, Teams, Meet, Loom, or screen recordings - Generates multiple formats: SOP, Notes, Summary, Action Items from same video - Built by operations consultants who spent 4+ hours per SOP manually

Perfect for teams who already have recorded meetings but need them documented as SOPs.

MakeSOP App's answer

MakeSOP was born from personal frustration.

As an operations consultant and IT professional, I was spending 4+ hours creating a single SOP from client meeting recordings. The process was exhausting: - Watch the entire video - Take detailed notes - Organize content into logical steps - Format everything professionally - Add prerequisites and quality checks

After creating 100+ SOPs this way for various clients, I realized this was a problem everyone faced but no one had solved specifically.

Tools like Scribe required performing actions live while recording screenshots. Trainual was for managing existing documentation. Notion was just a text editor. No tool let me simply upload an existing meeting recording and get a professional SOP automatically.

I built MakeSOP in November 2024 using no-code tools (Lovable.dev), Supabase, AssemblyAI for transcription, and OpenAI for structuring. The goal was simple: turn what takes 4 hours into 5 minutes.

Launched on November 8th, 2024, as a solo founder bootstrapping through IT consulting work ($2,100/month). Building in public and shipping fast. Currently serving operations teams, consultants, and training professionals who value their time.

The mission: Make professional documentation accessible to everyone, not just those who can afford dedicated technical writers.
