✔️ Leaders in tech / saas companies looking to scale operations
✔️ Operations teams overwhelmed with manual processes
✔️ Customer success teams unable to scale personalized attentionIf your team is facing the challenges described above, this playbook is for you.
Over-automation without review: Even high-accuracy AI needs human oversight for edge cases.
Poor system integration: If AI cannot write to your core systems, you still have manual work.
Inadequate training data: AI needs representative examples to learn your business patterns.
Ignoring feedback loops: When humans correct AI errors, system should learn from it.
No escalation paths: Customers need clear way to reach human when AI cannot help.
