Up to 400 documents a month. 5 people in the chain. Zero manual forwarding.
The routing rules were the easy part. The problem was documents matching two rules at once - an invoice that's also a contract amendment. My first version sent those to both the accountant and the lawyer. Both assumed the other one had it.
Fix: a strict priority order, plus a fallback queue for anything ambiguous. Nothing gets lost, nothing gets done twice.
Automation rarely breaks on the main path. It breaks on the 5% you didn't map.

Every time an employee manually copies data from one system to another, your business loses time.
It might only take a few minutes.
But multiply that by dozens of tasks every day, every week, and every month.
Before long, your team is spending more time on repetitive work than on growing the business.
The biggest cost isn't the time, it's the mistakes that happen along the way.
The Solution
I'd build an automation platform that connects the tools your business already uses.
Imagine a workflow where:
✅ New customer enquiries are captured automatically
✅ Invoices are generated without manual input
✅ Team members receive tasks instantly
✅ Customers get real-time updates
✅ Reports are created automatically
✅ Every process is tracked from one dashboard
Automation isn't about replacing people.
It's about removing repetitive work so your team can focus on solving problems, serving customers, and driving growth.
If you could automate one repetitive task in your business today, what would it be?
