4 – Generate the SOP with ChatGPT
What Will You Need
Ensure you have access to both Loom and ChatGPT.
1 – Recording the Task
Begin by recording yourself performing the task on Loom.
As you do the task, verbally describe each step to provide clear instructions that Loom can transcribe.
2 – Access the Transcript on Loom
After recording, go to your Loom account.
Navigate to the specific video you’ve just recorded.
Locate and click on the “transcript” option.

3 – Copy the Transcript
In the transcript section, you’ll find an option labeled “copy.”
Click on “copy” to copy the entire transcript of your video to the clipboard.
Note – Loom allows you the option to copy the whole transcript or by section. For this, you will want the whole transcript.
4 – Generate the SOP with ChatGPT:
Open up ChatGPT
In the chat input, type this (or a similar) prompt:
“Using the below transcript, make a simple and understandable step-by-step SOP so that anyone can easily complete the task.”
Paste the copied transcript from Loom below this message.
Press “enter” or “send” in ChatGPT.
Retrieve the SOP:
ChatGPT will process the transcript and generate a comprehensive SOP based on the information provided.
Review and Save:
Review the generated SOP for clarity and accuracy.
Save or document the SOP as needed for future reference or distribution.
This procedure provides a streamlined method for creating detailed SOPs using the combined capabilities of Loom and ChatGPT. Make sure to always review the generated SOP for any necessary adjustments or refinements.
