AI Workflow

A documented, repeatable sequence of AI-powered steps that automates a business process.

Also known as: AI automation, AI pipeline, AI process

An AI workflow is a documented, repeatable sequence of AI-powered steps that automates a business process or produces a consistent output. It typically combines triggers, AI model calls, data transformations, and integrations into a structured flow that can be deployed and reproduced.

Unlike a standalone AI agent, a workflow is oriented around a process rather than an autonomous goal. Examples include a content production workflow (brief input to published article), a lead enrichment workflow (form submission to enriched CRM record), or a document processing workflow (upload to structured extraction).
