How to Build AI Workflows Over Your Data

Some things don’t really “click” until you see them in action. You hear people talking about some new technology, trend, or tool. But you don’t really “get it” until you see it.

That’s how data-driven AI workflows were for me.

I’d heard the AI hype. Then I saw an AI assistant working over live business data. My wheels started spinning. It opened up so many possibilities. 

Then I saw that AI assistant added to a workflow. Data was passed to the assistant, which then made a decision…and led to another workflow step, which could then lead to another assistant and so on.

That’s when it really clicked. You can do anything with this.

In this article, I’ll explain more about AI workflows and why they’re so important to businesses. What are they? How do they work? Why should you care?

Also, we’ve included a video that walks through the whole process of creating an AI workflow from start to finish. After all, some things don’t really “click” until you see them in action.

Build an Inventory Management System in 75 minutes with Low-Code (step-by-step video)

We just released a new video that takes you step-by-step through an inventory management system build process. We created this video to demonstrate just how quickly you can create custom applications (like an inventory management system) with m-Power. In roughly 75 minutes, we go from just the data in our database to a fully functional inventory management system, and explain each step along the way. Watch the video below to see the whole process!

What is event-triggered messaging?

EducationToday, let’s explain another important term in the world of web application development: event-triggered messaging. What is it, why is it important, and how does it help your company? Let me explain.

Event-triggered messaging is a web application feature that involves automated email or sms messages sent on a pre-determined schedule, or based on application events. Messages can be triggered by any event, from customer interactions to changes in data and everything in between.

Workflow application demo

EducationA couple of months back, we released a powerful new m-Power feature: Event-triggered messaging. In short, it lets your applications deliver email or sms messages on a pre-determined schedule, or based on application events.

Now, you can use this feature in all sorts of ways–from running and emailing reports on a scheduled basis to automatically corresponding with customers and everything in between. Really, you’re only limited by your imagination.

Today, I’d like to show you one very powerful use for event-triggered messaging: Workflow applications! That’s right, this new feature lets you create new workflow applications, or even add workflow elements to your existing applications.

Rather than try to explain it, we’ve put together this short workflow application demo video. Hopefully, it will give you a better idea of what’s possible, and even spark some ideas of your own. Enjoy!
