Industry Monitoring
ON A RECURRING DIGEST
The problem
Useful industry news is scattered. Leaders either drown in newsletters or miss the one regulation note that mattered.
Trigger
Starts on a recurring digest.
Tools and systems
Connections depend on your deployment. Native where available, otherwise through Zapier, an API, or another connection you already use.
- Slack
What it reads
- Messages in the connected inbox
- Internal alerts and threads you route to Slack
Actions it can take
- Reply or reach out on the connected channels you allow
- Notify the team in Slack with a summary
- Hand off to a person when the request is outside the playbook
Human controls
- You own the source list and topic filters.
- The digest is information, not legal advice.
- Anything that looks like a compliance event can be flagged for a person.
Workflow steps
- 1You list sources and topics that matter to the business.
- 2The AI Employee checks those sources on a schedule.
- 3Items are summarized in plain language with links.
- 4Off-topic noise is dropped.
- 5The digest is emailed or posted to Slack.
Example use case
Friday's note has four items: a state licensing reminder, a manufacturer bulletin, a local utility rebate change, and one article marked skim only. The operations manager forwards the rebate item to sales.
Often handled by your AI Operations Employee, as part of the broader AI Workforce.
How to customize
This job is configured around your knowledge, hours, approval rules, and the systems in this deployment. Connections depend on the deployment. Native where available, otherwise through Zapier, an API, or another connection you already use.
