SOP DRAFTING — RUN THIS PROMPT IN YOUR AI TOOL OF CHOICE
Zero → Frontier — free, ungated, no attribution required

HOW TO USE THIS: Describe your process in plain, messy language — the
AI will structure it into a proper Standard Operating Procedure. You
don't need to already know SOP format.

I need a Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) written for this process:

PROCESS NAME: [e.g. "Onboarding a new client"]
WHO DOES THIS: [role/person]
HOW OFTEN: [frequency]
ROUGH DESCRIPTION OF WHAT HAPPENS, IN ORDER (messy is fine, just get
it all down):
[describe every step you can think of, in whatever order they come
to mind — the AI will organize it]

TOOLS/SYSTEMS INVOLVED: [list any software, accounts, or tools used]
THINGS THAT COMMONLY GO WRONG: [list any known failure points]

Turn this into a structured SOP with these sections:
1. Purpose — one sentence on why this process exists
2. Who's responsible
3. Step-by-step instructions, numbered, in the correct order (fix
   any ordering issues from my rough description)
4. Common mistakes and how to avoid each one
5. What "done" looks like — how to confirm the process was completed
   correctly
6. Related processes or SOPs this connects to, if any

If my description has a gap or an unclear step, ask me a clarifying
question rather than inventing a plausible-sounding step.
