SOP assistant for frontline staff

AI SOP assistant for frontline and shift workers

Staff on the floor, in the kitchen or on site ask how to do a task and get the steps from your own procedures, on their phone.

The problem

Procedures live in binders and shared folders that nobody opens mid-shift. New starters ask whoever is nearby, and the answer depends on who that is. Supervisors get pulled away from their own work to repeat the same instructions, and steps get skipped.

What the AI does

  1. Step 1: Reads your SOPs, checklists, equipment manuals and safety sheets from SharePoint, Google Drive or Notion.
  2. Step 2: Answers questions in Microsoft Teams, Slack or a simple mobile web page, in short numbered steps.
  3. Step 3: Links to the exact procedure and page each answer came from, so staff can check the source.
  4. Step 4: Answers in the staff member's preferred language when your team speaks more than one.
  5. Step 5: Says when it does not know and points the person to their supervisor, instead of guessing on safety-critical tasks.
  6. Step 6: Logs the questions it could not answer so managers can see which procedures are missing or unclear.

Where a person approves

Managers decide which documents the assistant can use and approve updates to them. Safety and clinical procedures are answered word for word from the approved document, never paraphrased.

What changes

Staff get the right answer in the moment, and the answer is the same whoever asks. Supervisors spend less time repeating instructions, and gaps in your procedures become visible.
