A procedure in Helpable with numbered steps, owner, review dates and read confirmations

The same procedure in SweetProcess and in Helpable

SweetProcess runs a procedure as a task. Helpable turns it into a lesson and a quiz, so you know people understand it before they run it.

With SweetProcess today
The procedure runs as a task with a checklist and a form. SweetProcess is built to document processes and run them; a separate training module was not described on its site.
With Helpable
Before someone runs the procedure, they learn it in a short lesson and pass a quiz. Helpable builds the lesson from your own procedure and asks for a read confirmation per version.

Who should pick which

The short answer

  • When SweetProcess fits

    Pick SweetProcess if you want to document processes with process maps and policies, run procedures as tasks with forms, or record workflows with a browser plugin; SweetProcess also offers SSO.

  • When Helpable fits

    Pick Helpable over SweetProcess if you want procedures to become training: Helpable adds lessons, read confirmations per version, certificates and reports, and works in English and Dutch with data in the EU.

  • When both fit

    Use SweetProcess and Helpable together if SweetProcess runs your daily task lists and you want structured onboarding and proof of who read each version in Helpable.

SweetProcess may suit you better if

  • You want to run procedures as recurring tasks with forms
  • You want process maps and policies next to procedures
  • You want teammates to suggest changes that managers approve
  • You need Zapier, an API, SSO or a workflow recorder

  • You want certificates with a public verification page from Business Plus, and expiry dates on Business Max
  • You want read confirmations per version, with an overview per person
  • Your team works in Dutch, English or both
  • You want data stored in the EU

What SweetProcess is built for

SweetProcess helps you document procedures, processes and policies in one place, whether you manage a team or are hiring your first employee. Processes can be drawn as process maps.

Procedures and processes can be assigned as tasks that work like checklists, with forms to collect data along the way. Teammates can suggest changes for managers to approve, and there is full version history, a public or private knowledge base, quizzes, an AI draft from a procedure title, a browser plugin that records workflows, PDF and Word export, Zapier and an API.

Why teams compare alternatives

Common reasons we hear, which may or may not apply to you.

  • Training is the main goal

    Teams that want lessons, quizzes, certificates and training reports per person look at how far each tool goes beyond documentation.

  • The team works in Dutch

    Helpable's app is available in English and Dutch. SweetProcess does not list its interface languages on its site.

  • Data should stay in the EU

    Helpable stores data in the EU. SweetProcess does not state a hosting region on its site.

Switching from SweetProcess: what it involves

You can have your most-used knowledge and a first training in Helpable on the same day. SweetProcess keeps working for as long as you want it to.

  1. Bring in what you have

    Upload the files you have (Word, PDF, Markdown, text or CSV), import a public website or connect Notion under Settings › Integrations. Each one becomes a searchable document. SweetProcess can export procedures to PDF and Word, which you upload here.

    Typical time: 10 to 20 minutes

  2. Check the drafts and name owners

    AI turns each document into a draft article or procedure. You read it, fix what is off, give it an owner and a review date, and publish. Nothing goes live by itself.

    Typical time: 1 to 2 hours for your key pages

  3. Let AI build the first training

    Pick the articles and procedures a new colleague needs and say who it is for. AI drafts lessons and quiz questions that link back to them. You check and publish.

    Typical time: About 15 minutes

  4. Invite the team and assign

    Invite people by email, put them in teams and assign training and procedures with a due date. Ask for read confirmations; reminders go out by email.

    Typical time: About 15 minutes

    Typical time: 14 days

Who Helpable is a good fit for

Helpable is made for teams of about 5 to 50 where the way work is done lives in a few heads, in almost any sector.

  • Teams on location

    Cleaners, installers and field staff who follow procedures at a client site.

    In practice: An installer opens the commissioning steps on his phone in the boiler room, with a photo per step, and the office sees he confirmed the latest version.

    See how

  • Shift and store teams

    Hospitality and retail teams where new people start every month.

    In practice: A store manager assigns the opening and returns procedures to three new hires with a due date, and the reminders go out by themselves.

    See how

  • Care and childcare teams

    Teams that work by protocols and must show who read the latest version.

    In practice: A childcare center updates its sleep protocol, asks every carer to confirm it and shows the per-person overview when the inspector asks.

    See how

  • Agencies and office teams

    Agencies and service firms that want client work done the same way by everyone.

    In practice: An agency writes its client onboarding as one procedure with a checklist in each step, so a new account manager delivers the same result in week one.

    See how

  • Startups and software companies

    Teams that document how they work and want new hires trained on it quickly, in English or Dutch.

    In practice: Support agents learn each product change through a short training drafted from the release articles, and the lead sees who passed the quiz.

Questions about switching from SweetProcess

Can't find your answer? We're happy to help.

Contact us
Is Helpable a good SweetProcess alternative?

Helpable is a good SweetProcess alternative for teams whose main goal is training people on their procedures, with lessons, quizzes, certificates and read confirmations, in English or Dutch. If you mainly run procedures as recurring tasks with forms, SweetProcess covers that and Helpable does not.

Can I move my SweetProcess procedures to Helpable?

Yes. SweetProcess can export to PDF and Word; upload those files to Helpable and AI drafts a procedure or article from each one for you to check, or paste the steps into Helpable procedures.

Can Helpable run procedures as tasks or checklists?

Helpable procedures can contain checklists inside their steps, and you assign procedures to people with read confirmations. Recurring task lists with forms are not available in Helpable.

Does Helpable keep a version history?

Yes. Every published procedure version in Helpable is kept with a change summary, and read confirmations are recorded per version.

Does Helpable have a public knowledge base too?

Yes. Helpable can publish a public help center for customers next to the internal knowledge base, with its own branding and search.

Is Helpable available in Dutch?

Yes. Helpable's app is available in English and Dutch, and you can write content in either language.

What does Helpable cost compared with SweetProcess?

Helpable starts at $29 per month for Business, with 3 team members, procedures, read confirmations and the AI writer. Business Plus costs $89 per month and adds 5 team members, training with quizzes and assigning with due dates, and Business Max costs $179 per month and adds automatic assignment. SweetProcess uses a base price for up to 10 members plus a fee per extra member; check its pricing page for current amounts.

Can I try Helpable for free?

Yes. Helpable has a free trial of 14 days on Business Plus, and you don't need a credit card. SweetProcess also offers a 14-day trial with no credit card, and it has no free plan.

Where does Helpable store my data?

Helpable stores your data in the EU. SweetProcess does not state a hosting region on its website, so ask them directly if this matters to you.

Does Helpable have a mobile app, SSO or Zapier?

Helpable works in the browser on phone, tablet and laptop, and there is no native mobile app. SSO and integrations such as Zapier or Slack are not available in Helpable today. SweetProcess does offer SSO, Zapier and an API, so if you rely on those, keep that in mind.

SweetProcess alternative: what teams want to know

People who search for a SweetProcess alternative have usually documented their procedures already and now want the team trained on them. These are the common questions, answered for teams of 5 to 50.

SweetProcess alternative with employee training built in

For teams whose next step after documenting is employee training, Helpable is a SweetProcess alternative with lessons, quizzes, certificates and read confirmations next to the procedures in one tool. SweetProcess is built around documenting procedures, processes and policies and running them as tasks, and it has quizzes; its site does not describe a separate training module.

The difference shows when a new colleague starts. In SweetProcess you can assign the procedures as tasks. In Helpable you assign a training with a due date that walks the new person through the procedures in order, checks each part with a quiz and ends with a certificate. The team lead sees in one overview who is done, who is behind and who is overdue. See employee training software for the full picture.

SOP software where you see who read the latest version

In Helpable every published version of a procedure is kept with a change summary, and you see per person who confirmed which version and who is still pending.

A practical case: the returns process at a webshop changes because the carrier changed. The operations manager edits the steps, publishes version four with one line about what changed and announces it. By the end of the day the overview shows that eight people confirmed and two have yet to open it, so she knows exactly who to ask. SweetProcess also keeps full version history and lets teammates suggest changes for managers to approve; read confirmations are not described on its site. More on read and acknowledge.

How to turn SOPs into training with AI

With Helpable you pick the procedures and articles people must know, and AI drafts a training with lessons and quiz questions, each lesson listing its sources.

SweetProcess uses AI to draft a procedure from its title, which helps at the writing stage. Helpable's AI works one step later, on your finished procedures, so the training matches the work as you documented it. You review the draft, add a photo where a step needs one and publish when it is right. A lesson that is the procedure itself always shows the current version. Read how training with AI works.

How to move from SweetProcess to Helpable

Moving to Helpable starts with the procedures people use every week, exported from SweetProcess to PDF or Word. Upload those files and AI drafts a procedure or article from each, so you bring content over in order of use.

Add the exported files to the AI writer, which drafts an article you check, or paste the steps straight into a new procedure and give it an owner and a review date. Then pick five or six core procedures, let AI draft a first training and assign it to one team with a due date. When that runs well, invite everyone else. Many teams keep their old tool open for a few weeks while the rest moves over. The page on work instruction software shows what a procedure in Helpable holds.

When is SweetProcess the better fit?

SweetProcess fits better when you run procedures as recurring tasks with forms, want process maps and policies next to them, or need teammates to suggest changes that managers approve. It is also the choice if you rely on Zapier, an API, SSO or a workflow recorder, since Helpable has no integrations or SSO today.

Choose Helpable when training is the goal, your team works in English or Dutch and you want data stored in the EU. SweetProcess does not state its interface languages or its hosting region on its site, so ask them if that matters to you.
