Process example

AI prepares a draft. You review and send.

The workflow writes a reply from known information and fixed rules. Price, date and credit note stay out until an employee allows them. You send.

AI in your daily work

From customer email to reply. You stay in control.

The workflow retrieves information and AI prepares a reply. You review the draft. When an exception occurs, you take over.

Question about order 1048

Sam

Hi, has order 1048 been shipped yet? Can I still change the delivery address? Best, Sam.

An address change is only possible before the order is handed over to the carrier.

Waiting for your review. Nothing proceeds automatically.

Software retrieves data. AI interprets the email and prepares text. Fixed rules limit the route. The employee reviews and decides.

The fixed rule determines whether a draft is prepared or an employee must take over the request.

Systems and access rights are agreed for each business.

Customer contact: replying to a credit request

A reply that leaves the credit decision open

01 / Source

The customer asks for a credit for a previous delivery.

02 / Prepared draft

A draft acknowledgment with the relevant order and a request for the reason for the credit.

Missing information
The reason for the credit and approval from the responsible employee.
Human decision
The employee decides on the credit and sends the final reply.

The short answer

The workflow writes a draft within fixed rules and from fixed sources. It never sends. An employee reads, adjusts or rejects and sends it themselves. That is deliberate: a wrong draft costs a minute, a sent mistake costs a customer.

The concrete problem

Someone starts from a blank page every time. In the rush, the text promises a time, a rate or a credit note that has not been checked yet. The expensive part is not the typing. The expensive part is the commitment you then have to take back.

Who this is for

Decision-maker

You want to respond faster without AI promising anything on behalf of the company.

The person writing the email

You want a draft that uses the facts from the source, with the forbidden sentences already taken out, so that you only add tone and decision.

What you receive

  • Baseline measurement of volume, minutes until the reply is sent, and how often a draft is reversed.
  • Draft text per agreed email type, with forbidden commitments in code.
  • Approve, adjust or reject before anything is sent.
  • Test on real emails and a final measurement.
  • Handover to whoever handles the inbox afterwards.

Where you can see the working example

The four enquiries on inbox and email show the draft per regime: fault report without a time, maintenance without a price, credit note without a commitment, spam without a reply.

Systems

The mailbox the reply has to come from, plus the records or system that hold customer status and rates. Sending via SMTP or the software only happens after approval, or not at all if that integration falls outside the scope.

Data and human control

The model may only see the text of this email and the fields the rule needs. It may not search for additional customer files on its own. Sending remains a human action. See security.

One process working in ten working days

From the agreed start and complete information: baseline and design, followed by build, testing, final measurement and handover within ten working days. This is one process. If you combine it with inbox sorting or case-file preparation, that is a second process of €1,500, or the AI Operating System of €4,500 where everything comes together. The route is on the how it works page.

Limits

No autonomous sending. No marketing copy or cold outreach. No second language or second channel in the same assignment, unless agreed in the diagnosis. Reading attachments is document checks.

Price

€1,500 excluding VAT, ten working days, one process. You pay half at the start and half at delivery. If it does not work as agreed, I fix it or you get your money back. The choice is yours. Check the numbers in the calculator.

Frequently asked questions

Does the workflow send the draft itself?

No. The draft waits until an employee approves, adjusts or rejects it.

May the draft mention a price or date?

No, unless you explicitly allow it in the rules. In the standard set-up the model may not commit to a price, delivery date or credit note.
