Book DescriptionManual, repetitive business workflows drain time, frustrate teams, and stall innovation. Business Workflow Automation with AI Agents offers a powerful solution by teaching you how to use AI-powered agents and no-code platforms to transform everyday processes into adaptive, intelligent systems.
This book offers a practical guide to spotting inefficient workflows and identifying opportunities for automation. It will also help you design smooth, trustworthy collaborations between people and AI agents. You’ll learn how to build and scale agentic solutions using low-code workflow automation platforms such as Make, n8n, MindStudio, and Zapier, alongside OpenAI’s connectors, to orchestrate multi-step processes, integrate AI, and connect multiple systems. Alongside these, you’ll explore how to leverage productivity and database tools including Google Workspace, Airtable, and Notion as the collaborative environments and structured data sources that power those automations. Together, these tools can streamline onboarding, approvals, document routing, and many other business processes. The reusable templates, workflow blueprints, and real-world scenarios will help you apply this knowledge.
By the end of the book, you’ll be ready to design, deploy, and scale no-code agentic systems that make your workflows faster, smarter, and more.What you will learn
