Reusable workflow pattern

Put AI in the middle—not blindly in charge.

1. Capture

Collect the customer request, job details, document, notes, or business data needed for the task.

2. Assist

Ask AI to classify, summarize, draft, extract, compare, or prepare a next-step recommendation.

3. Review

A responsible person checks facts, business rules, tone, safety, pricing, and anything consequential.

4. Act & Measure

Send, schedule, update, or execute the approved result—and track whether the workflow actually saves time or improves outcomes.

Actionable playbooks

Three workflows you can test before trying to automate everything.

Each playbook includes a copy-ready prompt, workflow, tool stack, mini-agent concept, and human-review boundary.
