Automation opportunity finder
Describe a piece of repetitive work — how often it happens, how long it takes, how many people touch it, how often it goes wrong — and see where it lands: automate it, simplify it first, or leave it alone. Automating a broken process makes it fail faster, so the tool will tell you when the process is the problem.
Add a piece of repetitive work
Three examples are loaded to start with. Change them, delete them, or add something from your own week.
What the list says
Ranked by what it costs you, not by what is easiest
About 324 hours a year across 3 items, of which roughly 144 look automatable on these answers.
The rest are not a failure of the tool. Some are too cheap to be worth changing, and some need the process fixed before anything is automated — automating a process that is not understood makes it fail faster and more quietly.
Chasing approvals by email
180 h/yrConnect the systems insteadSeveral people touching the same work usually means information is being carried between systems by hand. Connecting them removes the carrying, which is a different job from automating the task.
Re-typing order details into the accounting system
72 h/yrAutomate itRepetitive, rule-based and frequent enough to repay the work. This is what automation is for.
Producing the monthly report
72 h/yrAutomate itRepetitive, rule-based and frequent enough to repay the work. This is what automation is for.
These hours come from your own estimates, so treat them as the order of magnitude rather than a measurement. The point of the list is which items sit at the top, not what the total says.
What you are doing
Add the repetitive work in your week. The tool ranks it by what it costs you against what it would take to fix, and is explicit about which ones are not worth touching.
