Advanced Permissions

Decide who sees what, edits what, and signs in how

Set access at the board, library, and role level. Add custom roles, SSO, IP allowlists, and a full audit trail so sensitive SOPs stay with the people who should have them.

Expert review intervals

Name the expert. Set the review cycle. SOPs stay current on their own.

Assign a subject-matter expert as the owner of every card or playbook and set a review date. When the date arrives, Whale creates a review assignment for the right person so processes never quietly rot.

Version History

Every edit saved. Every version one click away.

Every time a card is saved in Whale, a new version lands in the timeline with the author and timestamp. Compare any two versions side by side and restore a previous one in a single click.

Custom Badges

Reward training with badges your team can see

Custom Badges award employees when they finish a training flow or pass a quiz. Each badge sits on the employee profile and in the org chart, so the whole team sees who is trained on what.

Mobile App

Put every SOP and training flow in your team's pocket

The Whale app runs natively on iOS and Android. Frontline and deskless teams open SOPs, complete assigned training, pass quizzes, and tick checklists from wherever the work happens.

Comments

Flag the step. Ask the question. Fix the SOP

Threaded comments on any card or guide capture feedback where the process lives. Your team flags stale steps, asks questions, and suggests edits without leaving Whale.

Org Chart

See who does what, where they sit, and who they report to

Whale’s org chart pulls from your user profiles. Departments, positions, and reporting lines in one view. Update a role, the chart updates with it. Every position links to the SOPs that role owns.

Checklist

Run every process the same way, every time

Checklists turn any procedure into an executable task list your team runs in real time. Every step is ticked off, photos are captured as evidence, and every run is timestamped and logged.

Auto-Translate

Write the SOP once. Read it in five languages.

Auto-Translate converts any Whale Card into English, French, German, Portuguese, or Spanish from whatever language you wrote it in. One source, five versions, every team member reading in the language they actually speak.

Branding

A workspace that looks like your company, not Whale

Custom logo, brand colors, your own domain at whale.yourcompany.com, and an email sender name your team recognizes. Whale reads as an internal tool, which is the version your team actually opens.

Tag Management

Tag every SOP once. Find the right one every time.

Tag Management gives admins a controlled vocabulary to label Cards, Playbooks, and guides. Filter the knowledge base by role, department, or location, and power CoPilot, reporting, and training flows from the same set of tags.

Software Integrations

Connect Whale with your preferred tools

Whale easily connects with popular tools using built-in integrations and offers custom options for your specific needs. Whether it’s a two-way or one-way sync, Whale helps you simplify and organize your processes.
