Taqtile, Inc. has created an exceptionally efficient – and absolutely free – tool for creating spatially anchored work instructions for use by deskless personnel in industrial and defense organizations – Manifest® Maker. Powerful new capabilities have been incorporated into Maker, including Artificial Intelligence (AI) to dramatically reduce the effort required to dynamically create step-by-step videos on complex procedures. The new version of Maker is available now and supports iPhone, iPad, and Apple Vision Pro.

Manifest Maker enables organizations to capture expert operators doing jobs, procedures, and workflows correctly, then document and share these procedures throughout the organization. Intuitive Manifest Maker tools make creating custom work instructions easier than ever before, without the need for specialized skills or equipment. Completed work instructions, enhanced with AR and spatially anchored content, can be exported to the Manifest platform with a single tap and made available to deskless workers anywhere, anytime.
Expanded Hardware Support
Industrial users now have more hardware options for using Manifest Maker, so they can now leverage the power of Apple Vision Pro, the utility of iPad, and the ubiquity of iPhone. Apple Vision Pro users can spatially anchor content and valuable information for each step, providing helpful context for workers. Manifest Maker 2.0 runs natively on Apple Vision Pro, iPad and iPhone, for optimized performance.
AI Capabilities Streamline Procedure Creation
By leveraging AI, Manifest Maker automatically creates linear, procedural steps out of captured video footage. The addition of AI enables efficient creation of documented procedures, including detailed work instructions that deskless workers can easily follow when conducting maintenance, making repairs, or performing inspections.
Effortlessly Create 3D Models
3D models are valuable tools for training and supporting employees, familiarizing them with complex equipment, and helping them follow repair and maintenance procedures. With Maker, making these highly useful models takes less time to create and requires no specialized skills. Anyone with an iPhone, iPad, or Apple Vision Pro can easily capture industrial objects, and turn them into 3D models for use in Manifest Maker and shared across the Manifest platform.
When designing highly engaging, easy-to-follow visual procedures, Manifest Maker users can drag-and-drop 2D or 3D images into the app from a Scratch Pad. Images and videos stored on shared drives can be accessed from Manifest Maker, then imported for use in work instructions. Furthermore, features like auto-transcribed text and dictated guidance are also built into the tool.
“Supporting Apple Vision Pro and its game-changing spatial computing capabilities is going to make it easier to create superior work instructions that will make deskless employees more effective and more efficient,” explains John Tomizuka, Co-founder and Chief Technical Officer, Taqtile. “With the addition of AI and other technical enhancements, the new version of Manifest Maker is more powerful, simpler to use, and a more valuable option for industrial users.”
Capturing knowledge is critical for maintaining institutional knowledge as valuable employees retire or leave an organization. Manifest Maker can also digitize antiquated paper-based work instructions, and transform existing procedures into dynamic, spatial aids to more effectively instruct deskless workers. With the Manifest platform, deskless workers can access Manifest Maker step-by-step work instructions, digital manuals and guidance, animated 3D models and digital twins, detailed holograms, and other invaluable company-centric knowledge, increasing maintenance and operational efficiencies, and improving overall safety.
