When a process changes, the SOP author has to re-capture the affected screenshots, manually find every place that step appears, and republish, with no system tracking what changed or when.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Cp>This becomes a real bottleneck at scale: a team maintaining 200+ SOPs across departments can spend a disproportionate share of documentation time on updates rather than new content, since each revision means redoing capture work from scratch. Compliance-sensitive SOPs compound the risk further, since an outdated screenshot can go unnoticed until an audit or an error surfaces it.\u003C\u002Fp>\u003Ch2 id=\"%C2%A7-4-what-to-evaluate\">§ 4 What to Evaluate\u003C\u002Fh2>\n\u003C!--kg-card-begin: html-->\n\u003Ctable>\n\u003Cthead>\n\u003Ctr>\n\u003Cth>Criterion\u003C\u002Fth>\n\u003Cth>Scribe\u003C\u002Fth>\n\u003Cth>Trainn\u003C\u002Fth>\n\u003C\u002Ftr>\n\u003C\u002Fthead>\n\u003Ctbody>\n\u003Ctr>\n\u003Ctd>Scale to hundreds of pieces\u003C\u002Ftd>\n\u003Ctd>Free plan unlimited for web apps; export and branding need paid tiers\u003C\u002Ftd>\n\u003Ctd>Update-in-place lets a team swap one clip instead of re-recording\u003C\u002Ftd>\n\u003C\u002Ftr>\n\u003Ctr>\n\u003Ctd>Workflow replacement\u003C\u002Ftd>\n\u003Ctd>Pairs with Confluence, Notion, Guru, Google Docs\u003C\u002Ftd>\n\u003Ctd>Replaces separate capture, video, and interactive tools\u003C\u002Ftd>\n\u003C\u002Ftr>\n\u003Ctr>\n\u003Ctd>KB\u002Fhelp center embedding\u003C\u002Ftd>\n\u003Ctd>Exports into existing knowledge base tools\u003C\u002Ftd>\n\u003Ctd>Publishes SOPs into knowledge bases and customer portals\u003C\u002Ftd>\n\u003C\u002Ftr>\n\u003Ctr>\n\u003Ctd>Editing skill required\u003C\u002Ftd>\n\u003Ctd>None for screenshots; branding needs Pro plan\u003C\u002Ftd>\n\u003Ctd>AI auto-zoom and spotlight need no manual editing\u003C\u002Ftd>\n\u003C\u002Ftr>\n\u003Ctr>\n\u003Ctd>Who can produce (SME vs. specialist)\u003C\u002Ftd>\n\u003Ctd>SME captures; polished formatting often needs a specialist\u003C\u002Ftd>\n\u003Ctd>SME records once and gets a finished video, guide, and walkthrough\u003C\u002Ftd>\n\u003C\u002Ftr>\n\u003C\u002Ftbody>\n\u003C\u002Ftable>\n\u003C!--kg-card-end: html-->\n\u003Cp>Trainn is built for SOP libraries that need to scale in volume while staying accurate as processes change, using update-in-place instead of full re-capture.
