Import a routine from a file

Upload the routine you already had as a PDF, Word, Excel, CSV, text, or image, and Kaizer AI transcribes it.

Import a routine from a file

If you already program outside Kaizer, you don't have to retype anything. Open the create-routine dialog from a client's Routine tab and the first step has an Import routine button at the bottom; the same thing exists as Import plan when you create one from Plans. Drop the file in and Kaizer AI transcribes it into an editable routine.

It accepts PDF, Word (.docx), Excel (.xlsx), CSV, plain text, and images — one file at a time, up to 700 KB. Old .doc and .xls files aren't supported; re-save them in the modern format first.

The dialog closes as soon as you confirm and the transcription runs in the background: a Kaizer AI card in the bottom-right corner shows the job's status, and clicking it takes you to the routine once it's done. Importing always creates a new routine (or a new plan) and never writes over an existing one. There's no preview step either, so read it over in the editor before it reaches your client.
