The gap

The slow part isn't the work. It's the handoffs in between.

Here's that same invoice, handled by hand.

10 manual steps → 1 workflow · 1 decision

That's where automation changes the workflow.

What we automate

Different industries. The same workflow patterns.

Most of the work that slows a business down falls into six patterns.

  • Automation example

    Document intake & extraction

    Documents are read on arrival, and their key details go where they belong, ready for review.

    An invoice number, amount and due date are pulled out and checked before anyone retypes them.

    See it in the Lab 
  • Automation example

    Approvals & routing

    The right person, in the right order, with a record of who approved what.

    An invoice above a set amount goes to the controller after the project manager signs off.

  • Automation example

    Follow-up, deadlines & reminders

    Nothing important depends on someone remembering.

    A contract's inspection deadline creates reminders three days ahead.

    See it in the Lab 
  • Automation example

    Matching & exception checks

    Two sources are compared, and only the differences are surfaced.

    Two records show different closing dates, and the coordinator sees it before it becomes a problem.

  • Automation example

    Exception briefs & reporting

    Leaders see what needs attention, not everything that happened.

    A morning brief lists two unsigned documents, one late approval and one missing quote.

  • Automation example

    Knowledge & AI assistance

    Search, summarize and draft, always for a person to review.

    An email says "I'll send the statements Friday," so a reminder is proposed.

Underneath all six: connecting the systems you already use.

Connection

Your systems should work together.

Most businesses already have the right tools. What's missing is information moving between them on its own. Chronosero designs those connections, along with the rules for what moves, when, and who needs to see it.

Automation example

Select a system to see what typically flows through it.

Tap a system to see what typically flows through it.

Categories shown are examples. Which systems can be connected depends on the software, its access options and your requirements.

Choose an industry to follow one workflow from that kind of business, including the step where a person makes the call.

BeforeSomeone reads the entire bid package to find the bid date, bond requirement and job walk.

Automation surfaces the requirements. Your estimator decides.

Human control

Automation where it helps. Human judgment where it matters.

As the consequences of an action increase, so does the level of human control we design into the workflow.

Automation should not remove good judgment. It should remove the repetitive work surrounding good judgment.

The Chronosero principle
  • Human approval is built in where the consequences require it.
  • Workflows are designed to use only the access they need.
  • Workflows are tested against normal conditions, exceptions and failure scenarios before deployment.

How it works

It starts by understanding how the work actually happens.

  1. 01

    Discover

    We learn how the work actually happens.

    A conversation about your process, your systems and where the time goes.

  2. 02

    Map

    We identify repetitive steps, systems, decisions, handoffs and risks.

    Each step is written down, including the exceptions people handle from memory.

  3. 03

    Design

    We design the workflow and decide where human control belongs.

    You see the proposed workflow before anything is built.

  4. 04

    Build

    We connect the systems and create the automation.

    Using only the access the workflow needs.

  5. 05

    Test

    We test normal conditions, exceptions and failure scenarios.

    Including what should happen when something is missing or wrong.

  6. Your approval06

    Deploy

    The approved workflow moves into production.

    We review the workflow with you before it goes live.

  7. 07

    Support

    We help maintain and adapt the workflow as systems and requirements change.

    Systems change. The workflow is adjusted with them.

Every workflow is different. We first understand your process, systems, requirements and goals before designing the solution.
