Draft your first SOP
Use a simple structure to turn one repeated workflow into a process people can actually follow, hand off, and improve once the workflow itself is clear.
Guided SOP builder
Start rough, not polished. Name the process, define the trigger and owner, then capture the real steps, decision points, handoff, and quality check. Document what actually happens today before you optimise it.Build one usable SOP before you build a library.
People do not fail systems. Systems fail people. Use this to create one handoff-ready process the ARCAS way.
Draft it roughly first
Name the process and the trigger that starts it.
Assign one owner who keeps the process healthy.
List the actual steps in the order they happen.
Capture the decisions, handoff, and quality check.

Refine with AI
Tighten the SOP after you draft or download it.
Use this prompt to clean up ambiguity, surface missing decision rules, and generate a sharper version that a teammate or future AI agent can follow more consistently.
You are refining an SOP draft for a founder-led business. Tighten the SOP below without changing the intent of the workflow. Keep the process practical, remove ambiguity, highlight what is missing, and make the handoff clear enough for both a human teammate and a future AI agent to follow. Please return: 1. A clearer SOP version with numbered steps. 2. Missing questions or assumptions that still need an answer. 3. Recommended decision rules or guardrails. 4. Suggested quality checks or metrics. 5. A short agent-ready version with explicit inputs, steps, and handoff. Current SOP draft: SOP Purpose Trigger Owner Inputs Steps Decision points Handoff or output Quality check Failure points
