INSIGHTS / PRACTICAL FIELD NOTES

Better questions. Better workflows.

Clear guidance for leaders deciding where AI is useful, where people must stay in control and what reliable implementation looks like in day-to-day operations.

  • Start with the workChoose from evidence, volume and consequences, not novelty.
  • Show who approves whatPut the right person at every consequential decision.
  • Measure what changedDefine the baseline and acceptance criteria before building.

FIELD NOTES

Decisions that shape a useful first implementation.

Each field note answers one question buyers and process owners face before a workflow is ready to build. Read the answer, inspect the reasoning and follow it into a working example.

Human approval

When should a human approve an AI action?

The question it helps you answerWhere should an AI workflow pause for approval?

Approval is a decision with a defined scope. Design the evidence, approval rights and failure paths around that decision.

Cost and value

What does AI workflow automation cost in Switzerland?

The question it helps you answerHow much does it cost to automate one business workflow with AI?

Price the workflow, not the technology: a one-off build, running costs and the review time your team keeps, with indicative CHF prices for each offer.

TOOLS / FROM READING TO A DECISION

Test the idea against your own work.

Use the rule-based tools and working demos to move from general guidance to a specific workflow, value hypothesis or implementation conversation.

Workflow Fit Checker

See whether one workflow looks clearly scoped, risky or in need of definition first.

Check workflow fit

ROI Calculator

Make volume, handling time and capacity-value assumptions explicit.

ONE WORKFLOW IS ENOUGH TO START

LET’S MAKE IT WORK.

Name one workflow
that repeats every week.

In a short fit call, we can usually determine whether the workflow is suitable, what systems are involved and whether a fixed-scope implementation is realistic.

No obligationNo sensitive data requiredNo automated sales spam

What happens next.

  1. We review the workflow.
  2. We reply within one business day.
  3. If it fits, we hold a free 45-minute Workflow Triage Clinic.
  4. If the work is complex, the next step may be a Workflow Blueprint before any implementation proposal.
Prepare for a 45-minute Triage Clinic

Bring one repetitive task, its owner, the systems involved and an approximate monthly volume. An anonymised example is enough. NDA available before sensitive discussions.
