How do you create a step-by-step guide?
Start the Chrome extension, do the task as you normally would and stop the recording. Every click becomes a step with a screenshot. Then you edit the text in the editor, redact sensitive areas, and share the guide by link or download it as a PDF.
Can Izly be used to write an SOP or work instruction?
Yes. You record the process once and the resulting step-by-step guide works as a standard operating procedure (SOP), a how-to guide or a work instruction. No separate template is needed because the step text is generated from the clicks.
Can it fill a web form from an Excel table?
Yes. Record filling the form once, then paste the table from Excel or Google Sheets on the site (a CSV file works too) and the automation runs once per row. Each column becomes a value, and you get a result table with one line per row. The Free plan runs up to 5 rows per table run; Pro has no row limit.
Does my table leave my browser?
No. The table, the values typed and the result table stay in your browser; the Izly server only gets counts and statuses. You download the result table as a CSV file or copy it. Passwords are never recorded, and you sign in to sites yourself.
Which languages can the video speak?
English and Turkish: voice and captions in both, plus translation between them. A Turkish guide can become an English video and the other way round. A video is ready in a few minutes. Free: 3 guides in total as a trial, Pro: 15 guides a month, Studio: unlimited.
Does it work on any website?
It works on pages you can use by hand in desktop Chrome, because it repeats the clicks and typing you recorded. If a page changes, the run stops and asks you. Izly is not a crawler or a price tracker: it follows what you recorded and does not watch pages over time. Sites have their own terms, and where one offers an official bulk upload or API, that is the better route.
Can Izly do the task for me?
Yes. Any guide can become an automation: press Run in the side panel or on the guide page and Izly clicks and types through the steps in Chrome. If it cannot find a step, it pauses and asks you. The free plan includes 10 runs a month; Pro has no limit.
How do I edit an automation?
The guide’s Automation window has three settings for each step: ask for the text on every run, skip it when it is not on the page, and wait before it. If a button has moved, you show its new place once with “Show me again” during a run. To add, remove or reorder steps you edit the guide; the automation always uses the guide as it is now.
Which browser does it work in?
For now there is a desktop Chrome extension, and no capture on mobile. A Windows and Mac app for work outside the browser is planned, with a waitlist and no date.
Is AI required?
No. Recording, editing and sharing work fully without AI. Title and description suggestions are optional; when on, requests go to the gateway on our own infrastructure, and a workspace admin can switch AI off completely.
Are passwords and sensitive data recorded?
The content of password fields is not read or stored. That rule is by design and its verification tests are still running. You redact other sensitive areas by hand in the editor: redaction overwrites the pixels on the server permanently and cannot be undone.
How long are raw screenshots kept?
Seven days by default. A workspace setting changes it from 0 to 30 days (at most 7 on the Free plan), and 0 means raw images are not kept at all. Sharing and PDF are designed to use only the redacted copies. Details are on the Security page.
What does the free plan include?
10 guides, 10 automation runs a month (up to 5 rows per table run), sharing by link, manual redaction, PDF with a small footer, and videos of 3 guides in total as a trial. It does not ask for a credit card.
Where does the name Izly come from?
From the Turkish word “iz”, a trace or footprint. Every step leaves one and the next person follows it. It also sounds like “easily”, which is what a guide is for.
