Workflow Use Cases
- Customer onboarding: verify email → create account → set up permissions → send welcome email → schedule check-in call → DONE
- Invoice processing: receive invoice → validate format → extract fields → match to purchase order → check discrepancies → route to payment or exception handling
- Content moderation: receive submission → run automated checks → score content → if score > threshold: auto-approve / if borderline: human review / if clearly violating: auto-reject → notify submitter
- Incident response: receive alert → classify severity → if critical: wake on-call engineer / if high: create ticket + notify team / if low: log and monitor → resolve or escalate
- HR onboarding: offer signed → create accounts → assign equipment → enrol in payroll → schedule orientation → assign buddy → 30-day check-in
