Configuring intricate workflows can be challenging, especially when determining why a specific action failed or how to best structure a sequence. As your business grows, maintaining and optimising dozens of individual flows requires significant time and technical oversight. Users often face difficulties identifying incongruities between their system setup and automation logic, leading to manual errors and inefficient processes.
Supporting your automation journey
The Flow Agent acts as an intelligent assistant within PlentyONE, helping you understand, build, and refine your automation logic. By integrating AI directly into the Flow Studio, we aim to lower the entry barrier for complex configurations and provide a "first-level support" experience directly within the software. You can interact with the AI assistant to ask specific questions about flow runs—such as why a branch wasn't executed—or receive real-time guidance while designing on the canvas.
Key benefits for your business:
- Real-time suggestions: Receive recommendations for the next logical action based on global usage patterns while building on the canvas.
- Instant error detection: Identify potential issues like logic conflicts, feasibility hurdles, or system setup incongruities before they cause errors.
- Flow summaries: Automatically generate descriptions for existing flows to quickly grasp their purpose and identify missing components.
- Optimisation hints: Benefit from AI monitoring that suggests ways to combine redundant flows or improve system settings.
Evolution of the Flow Agent
Future plans involve the AI proactively offering custom presets based on your frequent action combinations. We also aim to implement advanced search capabilities, allowing the AI to scan all internal flow notes and logic to find specific actions or configurations across your entire system.
This feature significantly reduces the time spent on technical troubleshooting, allowing you to focus on scaling your operations. Please note that the Flow Agent depends on the active use of Flow Studio and an existing AI Assistant configuration. We value your input; share your thoughts on how we can improve this feature.
