Solid playbook. One footnote:
"Map every step, every tool, every spreadsheet" and "document them as structured markdown" is the hardest part. Most people skip it or do it badly.
What if you described the workflow in plain English and got a professional BPMN model, full documentation, and a live executing workflow back in minutes? That's the step most agent builders are missing.
The quiet part: AI doesn't eliminate work. It eliminates the excuse for not having your processes documented and running.
Expectations go up because suddenly "describe what you need done" is all it takes to get a documented, executing workflow. The bar moved. Most orgs haven't noticed yet.
@lennysan@danshipper "Every automation needs a human." Correct. Because nobody documented the process well enough to close the loop.
The fix isn't better AI. It's describing what you do in plain English and letting AI generate the documentation and the live workflow from that.
@levie the part everyone skips: if you can't describe the process clearly enough to hand it off, you can't automate it either. the bottleneck was never the person. it was the missing documentation.
Most AI automation tools still feel like unpaid internships π
Draw workflows.
Learn BPMN.
Fix broken automations for 3 hours.
Then this startup said:
βjust describe the workflow in plain English.β
And the AI builds + deploys it for you.
Thatβs actually crazy.
