Where we differ in practice
Flat pricing, not per-user
Team plan is $79/month for your whole org. Waybook charges per user, so a 20-person team multiplies up quickly. Flat pricing removes the "should we really add this seat" friction as you grow.
Free, public industry templates
Browse /explore before signing up. Restaurant, church, staffing, cleaning, HVAC, plumbing, electrician, auto repair, trucking, e-commerce — clone what fits. No paywall.
No demo required to try us
Click trial, document your first SOP, invite your team — all in one afternoon. If you want a walkthrough, we'll do one, but it's optional.
Public process URLs for franchises and clients
Any process can be published to a clean, SEO-friendly URL. Franchise operators share standardized SOPs with units. Agencies share onboarding flows with clients. No extra tooling.
Migrating from Waybook
- 1. Audit your Waybook library. Most teams bring 20–40% over — the actively-used SOPs — and let the rest retire.
- 2. Start with our free templates at /explore. For your industry, you'll often find 60–80% of your SOPs already drafted — edit to fit.
- 3. Paste custom SOPs into our step-by-step editor. Numbered steps, optional images, role assignments.
- 4. Build an onboarding track. Bundle SOPs into a portal, invite your new hires, track progress, issue certificates on completion.
Typical switch is a weekend of work for a 5–15 person team. Much of that is deciding what's worth keeping.
Common questions
How do we compare to Waybook?
Both platforms target SMBs and focus on SOPs plus onboarding. The main differences: our pricing is flat monthly (not per-user), we publish free industry SOP templates anyone can browse at /explore, and our trial is self-serve without a mandatory demo.
Can I import content from Waybook?
No one-click importer. Most teams use the switch as an audit — only the actively-used documents move over. Paste each SOP into our step editor; typical switch takes a weekend for a 5–15 person team.
What about employee progress tracking?
Built-in. Assign SOPs or onboarding tracks to team members, see who has completed what, and generate dated completion certificates — no add-ons or upsells.
Do you offer industry-specific templates?
Yes, and they're free and public. Browse /explore for restaurant, church, cleaning, HVAC, staffing, and dozens of other verticals. Clone what fits into your account in one click.
How does pricing compare?
Our tiers are flat: $29/$79/$199/$499 per month, whole team included. Waybook uses per-user pricing, so total cost depends on headcount. At 10+ people, the flat model usually comes out ahead. See pricing for the breakdown.
