Show HN: Workflow86 - An AI business analyst and automation engineer Hey HN, We built Workflow86 to help teams build and automate their internal business processes and workflows using drag and drop components like forms, tasks, tables and nodes for business logic, API requests, running custom code etc. It works as a standalone process/workflow automation tool, or as a workflow customization layer on top of existing apps and systems like HRIS, CRM and ERP. One common problem we hear from users is that no-code still has a significant learning curve, and it can take some time to understand how to properly build something. Users also needed help with knowing what to build in the first place, or what a process might or should look like. To solve this, we've integrated an AI that acts as a business analyst/consultant and workflow automation engineer. This AI is powered by a combination of Large Language Models and lots of prompt engineering, RAG and prompt chaining techniques we developed along the way. See a demo of it in action here: https://ift.tt/ZOiI715?... In business analyst/consultant mode, the AI helps users brainstorm ideas, identify and discover processes and draft what a process should look like. Like a business analyst/consultant, the AI works to pull and extract information and details from the user by asking the right questions rather than rely on the user's instructions alone. Once the required information has been gathered, the AI goes into engineer mode: it will plan and then build the entire workflow by selecting the right nodes, connecting them together and then fully configuring every single node individually as well. This includes writing custom code and API requests using stored credentials when required. Once a workflow is built, edits can be done manually or by asking the AI to adjust the workflow at any time (e.g., “Add a compensation band check before final approval”). The AI has full context of the current state of the workflow, so it can “patch” in any changes like adding new nodes, rewriting existing nodes and so on. Some use cases we’ve seen from customers include building: - automated compliance checks for new CRM leads - custom international contractor onboarding workflows on top of a HRIS - automated vendor risk assessment before ERP updates Try it out and let us know how the AI performs and any other feedback you have!
