The workflow

Work arrives on a schedule or in a queue and is processed without anyone watching. Every piece exists to make thousands of runs survivable.

Starts on: Schedule · Batch · Event · Human review

Suits

  • Repetitive work with a known shape: classify, extract, summarise, enrich
  • Volume that no team could read, where a sample is checked instead
  • Anything that must run whether or not someone is at a keyboard

Strains

  • Work where the task is only clear once a person explains it
  • Cases needing a conversation to resolve, which a queue cannot have
  • Anything where a wrong answer is expensive and nobody is reviewing
