AI automation: win back the hours lost to repetitive work
IASWITCH uses AI to automate your SME's repetitive work (reading documents, triaging email, data entry, reporting) while keeping a human in the loop for sensitive cases. The goal: hours recovered every week, measured on your own data.
In brief
- Automatic data extraction from invoices, orders, quotes and forms
- Triage, filing and draft replies for incoming email
- Reports and summaries generated automatically
- Integrates with your existing tools (email, ERP, CRM, spreadsheets)
What is AI automation?
Classic automation follows fixed rules: it breaks as soon as a document changes format. AI automation relies on language models that can understand an email, an invoice or a PDF, even a messy one, extract what matters and trigger the right action.
In practice: what your team reads, re-types and files by hand, AI prepares. Your team checks and approves.
Examples of tasks you can automate
- Purchase orders received by email, re-typed into the ERP
- Supplier invoices to enter and reconcile
- Customer requests to triage, route and draft replies for
- Meeting notes and case summaries
- Weekly reports compiled from several sources
Reliable, not magic: a human stays in control
Automation is only useful if it is reliable. We put in place automatic quality checks, a confidence threshold above which AI acts alone and below which it asks for approval, plus tracking of errors and costs. You always know what the AI is doing and what it costs.
How much time can you save?
It depends on volume. Ballpark: a task that takes 8 people 4 hours a week adds up to more than 1,400 hours a year; automating half of it frees around 700 hours. The intro call lets us estimate your specific case.
How we get started
We pick a frequent, measurable task, automate it on your real data within a few weeks, measure the gain, then move to the next one. No big risky project: short steps, each one paying for itself.
Frequently asked questions
Which tasks can an SME automate with AI?
Mainly repetitive text- or document-based tasks: extracting data from invoices and orders, triaging and answering email, entering data into the ERP or CRM, writing reports and summaries.
Can AI make mistakes?
Yes, just like people. That is why we add automatic checks, a confidence threshold and human approval for uncertain or sensitive cases. Quality is measured continuously.
Do we need to change our software?
No. Automation plugs into your existing tools (email, ERP, CRM, spreadsheets, document management) through their connectors or APIs.
How is this different from a no-code tool like Zapier or Make?
No-code tools are great for chaining simple actions. Once you need to understand varied documents, guarantee reliability, protect sensitive data or control costs at scale, a purpose-built solution monitored in production becomes necessary. The two can also be combined.
