AI Automation

Using AI to automatically perform repetitive or cognitive tasks on behalf of a human.

Detailed explanation

Unlike classic automation (RPA, scripts), AI automation handles unstructured inputs (free text, images, voice), makes decisions and adapts to context. It is often combined with a workflow and API integrations.

Examples

Automatic level-1 support replies
Data extraction from PDF invoices
Content moderation on a platform
