Bring the files or exports. Run the preparation when you need it, and review what comes back.

Then, test the trigger and recovery.
The person still approves the payment, releases the work or sends the message. Scheduling and integrations are scoped to the job.
Already have a prompt that gets you most of the way?
That is a useful starting point. Bring the prompt, an example result and the part you still have to chase or fix.
We can start by examining what you have: its inputs, the exceptions it misses and what would make it reliable enough to hand off.
The latest position may be in the playbook, a marked-up agreement or counsel’s head. We capture the rules and operating steps your team agrees, then build them into a workflow others can run.
One review standard, ready for the whole team.
Your counsel defines a good result. We test the workflow against that standard, including missing attachments and clauses that need escalation. We build with invented records; your team tests real work in its own account.
Bring the request and the rules together.
