Without Manualy

Know-how lives in people's heads, on paper and in spreadsheets.

Every shift does it slightly differently, new starters shadow for weeks, and nobody can find the latest version when an auditor asks.

With Manualy

One source of truth every team can follow.

Version-controlled SOPs, checklists and flowcharts on any device, with tasks and sign-offs that show who did what, and when.

Customer stories

Teams that stopped hunting for the latest version

“No more PDFs, WhatsApps, spreadsheets, or files called ‘final_final_use_this_one_v2.doc’ with recipes and cooking methods. It’s all on Manualy now, that’s it. Manualy is our single source of truth. If anyone forgets how to do something, they know exactly where to go.”
Ahmed Abdul-rub, General Manager at Unit Food
“I think working with Manualy is a really great opportunity to tap into AI to create SOPs that don’t get lost over time, or in the hustle and bustle of the day-to-day here at HD Sports.”
Tom Cantwell, Director at HD Sports

Security & privacy

Security built into how Manualy works

Your organisation's information is kept separate from every other customer's. Passwords are never stored in readable form. Files sit in private storage that can only be reached through short-lived, signed links.

How do you store passwords?

We never store your password itself. Passwords are protected with bcrypt, a one-way hashing method designed for passwords. Not even our team can see what your password is.

How do sign-ins work?

When you sign in, Manualy issues a digitally signed session token that can't be forged or altered. It's kept in a secure, HTTP-only cookie that page scripts can't read and that is only sent back to Manualy itself. Sessions expire automatically; choosing "Remember me" keeps you signed in for longer.

Who can see my organisation's information?

Only people in your organisation. Every manual, task, compliance record, flowchart and document belongs to your organisation, and every request is checked against it. Within your organisation, roles such as admin, editor and member decide who can create and change things. Tasks and manuals can be assigned to specific business units, locations, teams or people.

Where are my files stored?

Uploaded files, such as documents attached to processes and evidence on tasks, are kept in private cloud storage on Amazon Web Services (AWS). They're never public. When you open or upload a file, Manualy creates a temporary signed link that only works for a short time: a few minutes for uploads, a few hours for downloads.

Do you use analytics or tracking?

Manualy uses essential cookies to sign you in and keep the app working. With your consent, we also use PostHog analytics to understand how the app is used so we can improve it. The analytics cookie stores an anonymous ID, never your name or email. Read our Cookie Policy.

Are you SOC 2 compliant?

We're working towards SOC 2. Our security controls are being built and aligned to the SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria, and we're working towards a formal SOC 2 report. We're happy to share our current security practices for your procurement review.

Frequently asked questions

Can I turn my existing paper checklists into digital SOPs?

Yes. Take a photo of a paper checklist or upload a Word, PDF or Excel file, and Manualy creates an editable digital version you can refine, approve and assign.

How quickly can I create an SOP?

Most SOPs are generated in 1 to 5 minutes. Complex multi-department procedures can take up to 30 minutes.

Can Manualy create and edit process flowcharts?

Yes. Build flowcharts from scratch or convert existing ones from files and photos, then edit each step and link it to its SOP.

Can I record procedures with smart glasses?

Yes. Record how a machine is operated or maintained hands-free on Meta smart glasses, then attach the video to the task or SOP so staff can rewatch it whenever they need to.

Does Manualy include rota and shift planning?

Rota and shift planning is coming soon. You'll be able to plan shifts around who is trained on each procedure, so the right people are scheduled for the right tasks.

Is there a limit to how many SOPs I can create?

The Starter plan includes up to 50 SOPs per month. Professional and Enterprise plans are unlimited.

Is my data secure with Manualy?

Yes. Your organisation's information is kept separate from every other customer's, passwords are never stored in readable form, and files sit in private storage reached only through short-lived signed links. We're also working towards SOC 2, aligning our controls with the SOC 2 Trust Services Criteria. See how we keep your data safe.

Is Manualy suitable for franchises?

Yes. Franchisors use Manualy to build their franchise operations manual, roll it out to every franchisee, manage multiple locations from one place and run store audits on any device.

Can I audit multiple stores or locations?

Yes. Schedule recurring audits and checklists for each location, capture sign-offs and photo evidence, and see the results for every site in one place.
