SOP Generator

Draw the process once — who does what, in which order, and where decisions are made. AI Flowchart turns it into a full standard operating procedure: numbered steps with instructions, decision criteria, a RACI matrix, exceptions, records and training notes. The steps and roles always match your diagram, so the document never drifts from how the work really runs.

  • Purpose, scope, definitions and responsibilities written for you
  • Numbered steps with instructions, outputs and tips
  • Decision criteria for every branch (“If Yes → step 4”)
  • RACI matrix built from the lanes and hand-offs
  • Exceptions, escalation, records and training notes
  • Expected time and cost per case from the process simulator
  • Download as Word (.docx) or PDF

Frequently asked questions

What is an SOP?

A standard operating procedure is a written, step-by-step description of how a recurring task is done — who does each step, in what order, what they check and what they record — so it is done the same way every time. ISO audits, new-hire training and quality teams rely on them.

How is the SOP made from my diagram?

The lanes become the roles, the boxes become numbered steps in the order the arrows go, and decisions become “If… go to step…” rules. The AI then writes the instructions, decision criteria, exceptions, records and training notes around those steps — it cannot add, remove or reorder steps, so the document always matches the diagram.

Is it free?

Building the SOP outline from your diagram is free, and the AI write-up uses your normal AI credits. Pro adds Word and PDF downloads, editable RACI cells and unlimited write-ups.

Can I edit the generated SOP?

Yes. Every paragraph, the header (document number, version, owner, effective date) and the RACI matrix can be edited before you download it.

Can I export it?

Yes — PNG, SVG, PDF, PowerPoint with an editable slide, Mermaid code and draw.io. You can also share a live link or present it full screen.
