Description

This workflow automatically converts unstructured internal documentation into clear, actionable Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).

Instead of manually rewriting internal knowledge, teams can upload or update documents and let AI generate consistent, step-by-step SOPs that are easy to follow and scale across the organization.

How it works
When a new or updated document is detected in Google Drive, the workflow extracts the content and splits it into manageable sections. AI then analyzes the material, identifies implicit steps, and generates a structured SOP with clear actions, responsibilities, and outcomes.

A second AI pass refines clarity and consistency. Completed SOPs are saved to Google Docs, logged in Google Sheets, and shared with stakeholders via Slack or email.
