How to create an SOP in 5 minutes with Dyzo Owl
Step-by-step: install the extension, record a workflow, edit in the side panel, and share a clean SOP as a link or PDF.
Before you start
You'll need a free account at owl.dyzo.ai and the Dyzo Owl Chrome extension. If you haven't yet, read What is an SOP tool? first.
Step 1 — Open the side panel
Click the Dyzo Owl icon in Chrome's toolbar. The side panel slides out from the right and stays open while you work.
Step 2 — Log in (once)
Hit Log in to Dyzo Owl. A tab opens at owl.dyzo.ai; sign in and come back — the panel is connected. No tokens or copy-paste.
Step 3 — Record
Press Start recording and do your task as you normally would. Every click becomes a step with a screenshot and a marker showing where you clicked. Move across tabs or websites freely — it's all one guide. Password fields are auto-blurred.
Step 4 — Review & edit
Hit Stop & review. Tidy up the captions, reorder steps with ↑/↓, delete the noisy ones. Then click Save guide — it opens in the web editor.
Tips for great SOPs
- Run the task slowly. A second between clicks gives a cleaner screenshot.
- Rename generic captions. "Click on the page" becomes "Click the green Save button" with one edit.
- Use Blur for any internal data. Drag-blur over emails, names, or revenue figures.
- One workflow per SOP. If it covers two unrelated tasks, split them.
FAQ
- Can I edit steps after recording?
- Yes — in the side panel before saving, and again in the web editor with arrows, boxes, blur, and text labels.
- What can I export to?
- PDF (via your browser's print), clean HTML, and Markdown.
- How many free SOPs do I get?
- Five per month. Upgrade to Pro for unlimited.
