AI Automation FAQ

What is AI automation?

AI automation uses AI models and software tools to complete repeatable tasks such as research, drafting, classification, reporting, and customer support.

Which tasks should be automated with AI?

Good candidates have clear inputs, predictable outputs, low risk, and a review process for mistakes.

Do AI automations need agents?

Not always. Many reliable automations use simple model calls and workflow tools; agents are useful when the task needs planning or tool use.
