You recorded the walkthrough once; now you want training that scales. Instead of asking every new hire to watch a screen recording, Gamma turns your Loom walkthrough into a structured training deck in minutes, with clear steps, screenshots, and checkpoints people can follow at their own pace. Bring the transcript or recap, or connect a tool like Granola, Fireflies, or Fathom that captured it, and let Gamma's AI agent handle the reshaping.
A Loom is quick to record but hard to reference. Nobody wants to scrub to minute 14 to find the one step they forgot. A training deck fixes that: it breaks the process into discrete, numbered steps people can jump to. Gamma's AI agent reads the transcript, checks who you're training and how much they already know, and reshapes a linear walkthrough into a reference people can actually learn from.
A video walkthrough shows the process, but it isn't built for learning or reference. A good training deck:
Breaks the process into clear, numbered steps
Pairs each step with a screenshot or visual
Adds tips and common mistakes the video glossed over
Includes checkpoints so learners know they're on track
The goal is to turn a one-time demo into repeatable training anyone can follow.
For a recording, you typically bring the transcript or recap text. Upload the transcript, paste it in, or connect the tool where it lives, Granola, Fireflies, Fathom, Notion. Gamma reads the full walkthrough and recognizes each step, the order, and the key actions, no scrubbing through video.
The agent checks who's learning and where they're starting from, then maps the walkthrough onto slides: an overview, a slide per step, the tips, and a wrap-up. A continuous demo becomes a structured lesson.
Instead of a video you can't skim, you get clean slides with numbered steps, room for screenshots, and callouts for the things people get wrong. The process becomes something new hires can follow on their own.
Have the transcript or recap from your Loom ready. If a tool like Granola, Fireflies, or Fathom captured it, the transcript is ready to connect or paste. Grab a few screenshots of the key screens too.
Head to gamma.app and start from the prompt box. Upload the transcript, connect your source, or paste the recap, then ask for what you need, for example, "Turn this walkthrough transcript into a step-by-step training deck for new hires."
A typical walkthrough-to-training flow looks like:
What you'll learn and why it matters
Before you start, prerequisites or setup
Step one, with screenshot
Step two, with screenshot
Step three (and so on)
Common mistakes and tips
Checkpoint and next steps
Adjust so the trickiest step gets the detail it deserves.
Gamma builds a complete, formatted training deck from your transcript in roughly a minute.
Drop in screenshots at each step so learners see exactly what you did. Gamma handles the layout, but when you want an image or callout in a precise spot, switch to freeform editing and position it. Or use AI editing: click the element and describe the change. Add tips and warnings where people tend to get stuck.
Share an interactive web link so new hires can follow along at their own pace, embed it in your onboarding docs, or export to PDF, PowerPoint, or Google Slides, slide-for-slide with formatting intact, for your training library.
Processes change, and training that goes stale is worse than no training at all. The advantage of building your deck in Gamma is that updating it is quick. When a step changes, record a short new walkthrough, bring in the fresh transcript, and ask the agent to update just that section, no rebuilding the whole deck. You can also save your training deck as a template so every new process you document follows the same structure your team already knows, same step layout, same callout style, same checkpoints. Over time you build a library of consistent training that new hires can trust, and you spend minutes keeping it current instead of hours recreating it from scratch each time something shifts.
Gamma vs. PowerPoint or Google Slides
Speed: Turning a walkthrough into step-by-step slides manually takes hours; Gamma drafts in minutes
Structure: You'd break the process into steps yourself; Gamma's agent does it from the transcript
Design: Manual tools depend on your skills; Gamma keeps it clean automatically
The honest take: PowerPoint and Google Slides give you full manual control if you want to craft every step by hand. If you'd rather start from a structured draft based on your actual walkthrough, Gamma saves you the rebuild, and you can export back to either format when you're done.
One step per slide. Don't combine actions, learners lose track.
Show every screen. A screenshot removes guesswork at each step.
Flag the gotchas. Call out where people commonly go wrong.
Add checkpoints. Let learners confirm they're on the right track.
Keep the language plain. Write for the newest person on the team.
Just the transcript or recap. For a recording, you typically bring the transcript text, upload it, paste it, or connect a tool like Granola, Fireflies, or Fathom that captured it.
Yes, and you should. Drop screenshots into each step during refinement so learners see exactly what to do. Use freeform editing to place them precisely.
Detailed enough that someone new could follow it without you. That usually means one slide per step, a screenshot each, and callouts for common mistakes.
Yes. Save the deck for your training library and share the web link with every new hire, or update it in Gamma whenever the process changes.
Your Loom already captured the process, it's just locked in a video no one wants to scrub through. Let Gamma's agent reshape the transcript into a step-by-step deck people can learn from and return to. Give Gamma the transcript, add your screenshots, and you've built training that scales.
