Title: Data Formatting & Cleaning in Excel
Description: I turn messy spreadsheet exports into clean, consistent, analysis-ready data. I remove duplicates and extra spaces, standardize names, dates and currency, and flag missing values for review instead of guessing.

This looks so minimalistic.
OCR extracts business names, formation dates, and addresses from uploaded documents automatically. But users still need to trust what the system found before anything gets submitted.

This week, I have been working on automating my boss's inbox management, delegating email triage to AI while I handle reviews and approvals that require sound judgment. Because one wrong response to a client can cost a business revenue, I wanted to build a system that saves time without handing over critical decisions to AI.
How I built it:
I created two connected automation scenarios in Make.com.
Scenario 1: Intelligent Inbox Triage:
AI analyzes incoming emails, categorizes them by priority, summarizes their content, and recommends the next action. This makes it easier to identify urgent messages and decide what needs attention first.
Scenario 2: Human Review & Approval:
The workflow supports the review and approval process before an email is sent. Slack notifications help bring relevant updates to my attention, so I can review the proposed action and approve the response before it goes out.
Below are snippets of the two scenarios, including a Slack notification, showing how the workflow operates.
My takeaway? AI can help manage the inbox, but when a response could affect revenue or a client relationship, the final decision should remain human.
I'd test the triage with urgent emails that sound casual, such as 'I still can't access the account.' Do you review a sample of low-priority messages to catch urgent ones the AI missed?
