From doing everything yourself to architecting systems that run themselves. Five phases. One transformation.
Every SOP you write follows this path. You start as the operator, and gradually hand off execution to AI - not all at once, but step by step, with verification at every stage.
Each phase shifts the balance between human effort and AI capability.
Click any phase to see what you do, what Sentigen does, and how to graduate to the next level.
At each phase, your relationship with the work changes. The procedures stay the same - your involvement evolves.
You do everything
You watch AI watch you
AI proposes, you decide
AI executes, you review
You design systems, AI runs them
Honest expectations for how long each phase takes.
