AI-assisted workflows

Use AI where it improves a real workflow.

Apply AI to a bounded business task with defined inputs, review points, privacy requirements, fallback behavior, and measurable acceptance checks.

What this can include

AI is most useful when it helps a person complete a specific job—not when it is added as a vague feature. We design AI-assisted workflows around the actual source material, decision risk, expected output, and the person responsible for review.

01

Document extraction

Turn authorized documents into structured fields that a person can verify before use.

02

Classification and routing

Suggest categories, priorities, or destinations while preserving review for uncertain or sensitive cases.

03

Drafting assistance

Create first drafts from approved context and templates without pretending the output is final.

04

Knowledge retrieval

Help teams find relevant material from an authorized, scoped source set with traceable references where possible.

05

Exception summaries

Organize long records or operational events so reviewers can focus on items that need attention.

06

Workflow agents

Coordinate limited tool actions behind explicit permissions, validation, logs, and approval gates.

Details

Begin with the decision risk

The acceptable workflow depends on what happens if the output is wrong. A low-risk draft can tolerate different controls than a customer commitment, financial change, legal decision, or update to a production system.

Every AI workflow should define

  • The allowed sources and types of input.
  • The output format and required supporting context.
  • Confidence or validation rules that trigger review.
  • The person authorized to approve a material action.
  • Fallback behavior when the model or provider is unavailable.
  • Retention, privacy, cost, and provider constraints.

Details

Verification before automation

Representative tests
Use real-world examples that reflect normal cases, ambiguity, missing fields, and adversarial or malformed input.
Grounding
Constrain outputs to approved business context and preserve links or citations when the task requires them.
Structured output
Validate machine-used fields against an explicit schema instead of trusting free-form text.
Approval gates
Require human confirmation before external messages, financial actions, deletion, credential changes, or other material effects.

Details

Provider and data boundaries

Model capability, cost, latency, data handling, retention options, regional availability, and contractual terms can change. We identify provider dependencies and document the assumptions used for the scoped implementation.

Not every process should use AI. Deterministic business rules remain preferable when the inputs and decisions can be expressed reliably without probabilistic output.

Start with the problem

Define a useful first result.

Tell us what happens today, where the work gets stuck, and what should be easier. We can identify the questions and dependencies needed for a responsible scope.
