Get StartedBenefit from Synchronized Teamwork, Enhanced Productivity, and Concise Processes
Create step-by-step guides, Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs), training manuals, how-to instructions, and tutorials to synchronize your team’s work, improve communication, reduce errors, and enhance performance.
Process Standardization
The formalization of the processes and procedures streamlines the workflow and makes it easier to coordinate. When activities follow the uniform procedures, the number of missteps reduces, rework is minimized, and productivity surges.
Algorithmization
By providing your employees with guidance adhered to the formal procedures, you support seamless workflow. When every team member follows the expected and predictable course of actions, the risk of errors and delays is close to zero.
Enhanced Productivity
Algorithmization and process clarification make it possible to avoid unnecessary repetition in activities, eliminate confusion in the sequence of actions, and incentivize smoother collaboration. As a result, productivity and motivation arise.
Easy Onboarding
Having the detailed descriptions of the key processes and procedures under your belt, you can reduce the adaptation period for new hires and help them get up to speed quickly. Visual instructions can also assist your new teammates in performing well.
Productive Training
Ensure that your new team members have an opportunity to obtain new software tools as quickly as possible. Provide your employees with visual instructions once you implement new software and benefit from smooth workflow from day one.
Strengthened Communication
When your SOPs, instructions, and manuals are prepared and can be easily shared, you don’t need to answer the same questions of your clients and colleagues. You have time and energy to develop your field of expertise and offer innovative solutions.

With MagicHow as your assistant, it's easy to learn how to document operational performance. Simply follow the process step-by-step, allowing MagicHow to record your actions. The tool will make screenshots and compile them into a comprehensive document that can be shared with your employees, colleagues, and clients with a few clicks. Unlike in case of video recording, you don’t need to worry about the speed of recording. In addition, you don’t need to rerecord a process if you do a misstep - MagicHow will help you edit your instructions later, when you have an opportunity to delete or add screenshots, add a logo and graphic elements, modify titles, and provide your slides with comments.
It will take about a few minutes to document a simple process such as the creation of an account on a corporate website. It may take you up to ten minutes to create an SOP for a more complex procedure, such as tracking support requests in Zendesk.
How Can I Edit My Proccess Documentation Made With MagicHow?
MagicHow provides automated documentation of operations performed using software. However, you can customize your instruction when the document draft is ready. There are several opportunities to edit your guiding documents:
deleting or adding screenshots;
adding comments and tips;
blurring sensitive information;
modifying titles;
inserting graphic elements.
You can also update your guiding documents at any time to keep the content up-to-date. Whether your reader will see the changes as soon as you implement them, depends on the format you save and share your instructions. Share a link or embed your documentation into a knowledge base or a portal so that your audience stay updated with your content modifications. If you save a document in PDF or copy it in HTML or Markdown format, it will remain intact.
How Can I Share My Operational Documentation Made With MagicHow?
MagicHow helps create easily shareable operational documentation that can be seamlessly delivered to a wide audience. There are a few options for sharing your guiding content:
emailing it via a link, adjusting the access settings to the audience;
saving it as PDF;
copying it in an HTML or Markdown format;
embedding it to a website.
When you sending a link to your recipients or embed an instruction, your readers see the changes in a document as soon as the modifications are made. In the other two cases, the content remains the same when the original document is edited.
On Which Devices Can I Use MagicHow?
MagicHow is available in two versions: for the browser and for the desktop. Consequently, you can use the tool on your desktop or laptop. The desktop version has the advantage of documenting processes performed with desktop software tools. Additionally, this version can be used without an internet connection.
