Workflow automation

If a person on your team does the same thing to a spreadsheet every morning, that is a script. We write it, schedule it, add failure alerts and hand you the source.

The problem

Someone capable is spending two hours a day copying between systems. It is invisible on any report, it is the first thing to break when they take leave, and it never gets fixed because nobody has a spare week.

How we approach it

  1. 01

    Watch the real job first

    We record the actual process, including the exceptions people handle without thinking. Those exceptions are where naive automation fails.

  2. 02

    Loud when it breaks

    Silent failure is worse than no automation. Every script alerts a human on failure and never fails halfway through a batch.

  3. 03

    Readable by your next developer

    Commented source, documented setup, no clever tricks. You are not buying a black box.

Common questions

What can be automated?
Anything with rules. Report generation, data entry between systems, invoice processing, file renaming, scraping, reconciliation, bulk email.
Do we need a server?
Small scripts can run on an existing machine. For anything scheduled and important we set up a small cloud instance, which is usually a few hundred rupees a month.
What if the source system changes?
Thirty days of fixes are included. After that, adapting to an upstream change is a small quoted job, not a rebuild.
