TimeExAI: Simplifying Time, Expense, and Workforce Management with AI

TimeExAI: Simplifying Time, Expense, and Workforce Management with AI

Bringing Time Tracking, Approvals, Expenses, and Compliance into One Intelligent Platform

Tracking employee time, managing leave, processing expenses, and maintaining accurate records are essential business functions. But they often require employees and managers to move between multiple systems, complete repetitive administrative tasks, and manually keep workflows moving.

CloudWave developed TimeExAI, an intelligent workforce management platform that brings time tracking, leave management, expense reporting, approvals, and compliance capabilities into a centralized environment. Employees can manage everyday tasks through the application or supported Slack workflows, while managers and administrators gain greater visibility and control over approvals, policies, projects, and organizational requirements.

By combining configurable workflows, automation, AI-assisted capabilities, and comprehensive audit trails, TimeExAI is designed to make routine workforce administration easier for employees while helping organizations maintain consistent, traceable processes.

The Challenge

Time and expense management can become surprisingly complex as organizations grow. Employees need a simple way to record hours against the correct projects and tasks, submit leave, track available balances, report expenses, and understand upcoming deadlines.

Managers face a different challenge. They must review and approve employee submissions, identify missing or incorrect information, and ensure requests follow organizational policies. Administrators must also manage users, roles, project information, reminders, leave policies, expense categories, and other requirements that can vary across organizations.

When these activities rely on disconnected tools or manual processes, routine administrative work can create unnecessary friction. Missing timesheets can require repeated follow-up, expense discrepancies may require manual review, and organizations need reliable records showing when information was entered, changed, submitted, and approved.

TimeExAI was designed to bring these processes together while making the experience more convenient for employees, managers, and administrators.

The Solution

CloudWave developed TimeExAI as a centralized platform for managing employee time, leave, expenses, approvals, and related administrative workflows.

Employees can record time by assigned project and task using daily or weekly views, add notes where needed, and submit completed timesheets directly to managers. Unapproved timesheets can be recalled for correction, while approved timesheets are locked to protect finalized records. Submission and withdrawal activity is maintained within the system for greater visibility into the history of each timesheet.

The platform also incorporates automated reminders to help employees stay aware of timesheet deadlines and alert managers when approvals are waiting for review.

Rather than limiting these capabilities to a traditional application interface, TimeExAI extends supported workflows into Slack. Employees can use natural-language interactions to perform tasks such as checking assigned projects, submitting timesheets, requesting or canceling leave, and submitting expenses. Managers can also review requests and approve, reject, or request additional information directly through Slack.

Integrated Leave and Expense Management

TimeExAI brings paid time off and expense management into the same environment as employee time tracking.

Employees can view available vacation and sick leave balances and submit requests directly through the platform. The system can identify requests that exceed available balances, and cancellations restore applicable balances. Configurable rules can also help organizations enforce requirements such as minimum notice periods for leave requests.

For expense reporting, TimeExAI incorporates Optical Character Recognition (OCR) capabilities designed to extract information from uploaded receipts and compare receipt amounts with submitted expenses. When discrepancies are identified, the system is designed to flag them before submission and make the differences visible during the approval process.

This capability is designed to reduce the manual effort involved in reviewing expense documentation while creating a clearer connection between submitted expenses and their supporting records.

Flexible Workflows Through Slack

One of TimeExAI’s key capabilities is its integration with Slack, allowing users to complete supported workforce management tasks through a familiar collaboration environment.

Using natural-language requests, employees can interact with TimeExAI without navigating through multiple screens in the primary application. Supported actions include checking project assignments, entering and submitting time, recalling timesheets, submitting or canceling leave requests, and uploading receipt images for expense processing.

Managers can similarly handle approval workflows from Slack, helping keep routine administrative tasks within the tools employees and managers already use throughout the workday.

Configurable Administration

Organizations have different policies, structures, project requirements, and approval processes. TimeExAI provides tenant-level configuration capabilities so administrators can adapt the platform to their operating environment.

Administrators can manage users, roles, permissions, locations, Slack IDs, and reminder schedules from a centralized configuration area. The platform also supports configuration of PTO and expense categories, project types, budgets, and organizational constraints, along with custom branding such as company logos and product names.

This configurable approach allows organizations to establish workflows and policies around their own requirements rather than forcing every organization into the same process.

Compliance and Auditability

Accurate time and expense records are especially important for organizations operating in environments with strict reporting and compliance requirements.

TimeExAI is designed to maintain a complete history of workforce transactions rather than only preserving their current state. The platform captures daily time entries, changes, electronic submissions, and manager approvals to provide traceability throughout the process.

Additional controls include timestamped daily entries, documented reasons for changes, electronic employee certification and supervisor approval, locking after approval, tamper-evident logging, and record retention capabilities.

Together, these controls help organizations create a more transparent and auditable record of time and workforce activity.

Key Benefits

  • Centralized workforce management: Bring time tracking, leave, expenses, approvals, and administrative workflows into one platform.
  • Simplified employee experience: Give employees a convenient way to manage routine workforce tasks through the application or supported Slack interactions.
  • Streamlined approvals: Help managers review and act on employee submissions while maintaining visibility into pending requests.
  • AI-assisted expense processing: Use OCR capabilities designed to capture information from receipts and help identify discrepancies between supporting documentation and submitted expenses.
  • Automated reminders: Keep employees and managers informed about deadlines and outstanding approvals.
  • Configurable policies and workflows: Adapt roles, reminders, leave policies, expense categories, projects, budgets, and other settings to organizational requirements.
  • Greater auditability: Maintain detailed histories of entries, changes, submissions, and approvals to support accountability and compliance.

Key Benefits

Time tracking, leave management, and expense reporting may be routine business processes, but the administrative effort behind them can quickly add up when employees, managers, and administrators must rely on disconnected systems and manual follow-up.

CloudWave developed TimeExAI to create a more connected approach. By bringing time, leave, expenses, approvals, configurable administration, AI-assisted processing, Slack-based interactions, and auditability together in one platform, TimeExAI helps organizations simplify everyday workforce management while maintaining greater visibility and control.

The result is a more streamlined experience for employees and managers and a stronger foundation for organizations that need workforce processes to remain organized, configurable, and traceable.

Automating Document Reviews with Configurable AI Validation

Automating Document Reviews with Configurable AI Validation

Improving Accuracy and Consistency with Intelligent Document Verification

Organizations across industries rely on supporting documents to process applications, verify identities, and maintain compliance. Whether reviewing birth certificates, proof of residence, licenses, or other required documentation, these validation processes are often manual, time-consuming, and subject to human error.

CloudWave developed DocAssure AI, an AI-powered solution that enables organizations to automatically evaluate uploaded documents against configurable business rules. By allowing organizations to create and manage their own validation criteria, DocAssure AI helps streamline document review while providing greater consistency, transparency, and auditability.

The Challenge

Document requirements vary widely across organizations and use cases. Each document type may require different validation criteria, making manual review both repetitive and difficult to standardize.

Teams need a way to verify that uploaded documents meet business requirements while maintaining flexibility as those requirements evolve. At the same time, reviewers need visibility into why a document passed or failed validation and the ability to revisit previous validation results when rules change.

The Solution

CloudWave designed DocAssure AI to combine artificial intelligence with user-defined business rules to automate document review within Salesforce.

The process begins by creating a document type, where users define the type of document being validated, provide a description, select the appropriate Salesforce object, and configure whether validation should occur automatically after upload.

Organizations can then generate validation rules in one of two ways. Users may upload a sample document for AI analysis, allowing the system to recommend validation rules based on the document’s contents, or they can manually provide instructions to create custom rules. Suggested rules can be reviewed, edited, accepted, or discarded, giving organizations complete control over how documents are evaluated.

Using a custom Lightning Web Component, DocAssure AI can be deployed across standard and custom Salesforce objects. Once a document is uploaded, the system validates the file against the configured rules and presents the results within Salesforce.

Validation Results and Auditing

For every processed document, users can review the original file alongside an AI-generated text extraction and detailed validation results. Each rule includes supporting evidence, confidence scores, and validation outcomes, helping users understand how the system reached its conclusions.

DocAssure AI also maintains a complete validation history for every document. If validation rules are updated, users can rerun the validation process to compare results while preserving previous executions. This creates a comprehensive audit trail that supports quality assurance, compliance, and continuous improvement of validation rules over time.

Results:

DocAssure AI provides organizations with a flexible framework for automating document reviews while allowing businesses to manage their own validation requirements.

Key capabilities include:

  • AI-assisted generation of document validation rules
  • User-managed rule creation and customization
  • Configurable document types and validation workflows
  • Automatic document validation upon upload
  • Deployment across standard and custom Salesforce objects
  • AI-generated text extraction for uploaded documents
  • Confidence scoring and evidence-based validation results
  • Validation history and reprocessing capabilities
  • Comprehensive audit trails for document reviews
  • Business-managed rule generation without ongoing developer involvement

With configurable business rules and AI-powered document analysis, DocAssure AI helps organizations standardize document validation while maintaining the flexibility to adapt as business requirements evolve.

Pulsa AI Civic: Modernizing 311 Service Request Management with AI

Pulsa AI Civic: Modernizing 311 Service Request Management with AI

Municipalities receive a constant stream of non-emergency service requests, from potholes and streetlight outages to garbage collection, snow removal, and other community concerns. While submitting a 311 request may be simple for a resident, managing that request behind the scenes can require significant manual coordination.

City staff must review incoming information, determine which department is responsible, route the request, coordinate the response, track progress, and keep residents informed along the way.

CloudWave developed Pulsa AI Civic to bring AI and automation into this process. Designed for municipal 311 operations, Pulsa AI Civic uses AI and automation to support service request intake, analysis, routing, case management, and citizen communication while giving city teams the tools and visibility they need to manage requests from submission through resolution.

The Challenge

Traditional 311 processes can place a significant administrative burden on city employees. Each new request may need to be manually reviewed to understand the issue, confirm its location, determine which department should handle it, and enter or transfer information before work can begin.

At the same time, residents expect visibility into what happens after they submit a request. A lack of timely updates can leave citizens uncertain about whether their issue was received, assigned, or being addressed.

Pulsa AI Civic was designed to reduce the manual work between a citizen reporting an issue and the appropriate city team taking action, while maintaining communication with the resident throughout the process.

The Solution

Pulsa AI Civic is an AI-powered 311 solution designed to help municipalities manage citizen service requests more intelligently from intake through resolution. Pulsa AI Civic analyzes incoming requests to identify the issue, severity, and location, then helps route each case to the appropriate department or queue.

When physical action is required, field teams receive the context they need to respond effectively. By reducing the manual coordination between intake, assignment, and response, Pulsa AI Civic helps city teams manage requests more efficiently and move issues toward resolution faster.

Pulsa AI Civic also supports ongoing citizen communication throughout the service request lifecycle. From intake through closure, residents can receive updates as their reported issue moves through the resolution process, helping cities provide a more transparent and responsive 311 experience.

Together, these capabilities create a more connected process for residents, 311 staff, departments, and field teams while giving municipalities greater visibility into service requests from initial report through resolution.

AI-Powered Request Analysis and Routing

Instead of requiring staff to manually read and categorize every incoming request, Pulsa AI Civic performs an initial assessment and identifies the location before assigning the case to the appropriate department. The system can route complaints to the most relevant expert team based on historical data and provide confidence scores based on factors such as the clarity of the description and accuracy of the address.

This helps reduce the manual triage required at the beginning of the 311 process and gets requests in front of the teams responsible for addressing them more quickly.

Location Intelligence and Related Case Identification

PUSLA AI Civic incorporates location information directly into the case management process. Requests can be pinned to a map, helping staff understand exactly where an issue was reported.

When multiple cases occur within the same area, the system can identify an “elevated area” and surface nearby or similar cases. This gives city teams additional context to identify patterns and prioritize work when several residents are reporting related issues in the same location.

Tools Designed for City Staff

Once a case reaches the appropriate department, staff have access to tools designed to make reviewing and managing requests easier.

Pulsa AI Civic can provide a summarized view of a case for quick assessment, while a chat interface allows employees to ask questions about case details and estimated resolution times. Staff can also trigger an AI re-evaluation when needed.

Department-specific dashboards help employees focus on the cases relevant to their role rather than sorting through requests assigned elsewhere in the organization.

Flexible Assignment and Case Management

Automation supports the workflow without removing staff control.

Teams can manually reassign cases when collaboration or a different department is needed. As work progresses, employees can record updates such as arriving at the reported location or confirming the issue. Those updates move the request through its appropriate stages and are reflected in the citizen-facing experience.

Pulsa AI Civic can also automatically populate form fields using information already provided in the citizen’s complaint.

Keeping Citizens Informed from Intake to Closure

Citizen communication is built directly into the workflow.

After a request is submitted, Pulsa AI can send communication and status updates to citizens via email and SMS, helping keep them informed as their reported issue moves from intake through closure.

This creates a more transparent experience for residents by providing timely updates throughout the service request lifecycle without requiring city employees to manually communicate each status change.

The Impact

Pulsa AI Civic demonstrates how municipalities can apply AI to a practical, everyday government process without removing people from the decision-making loop.

By automating initial request assessment, routing, data entry, and routine communications, the solution can reduce the administrative work required to manage 311 requests. At the same time, location intelligence, AI-assisted case analysis, department-specific dashboards, and manual reassignment capabilities give city employees greater context and control as they work toward resolution.

For residents, automated notifications and live status updates create a clearer connection between reporting an issue and seeing it addressed. The result is a 311 process designed to be more efficient for city teams, more transparent for citizens, and more responsive from intake through resolution.

Smarter 311 for More Responsive Cities

AI has the potential to improve local government most when it is applied to specific processes where employees and residents can see the difference.

Pulsa AI Civic brings that approach to 311 service management, combining AI, automation, location intelligence, case management, and citizen communication in a connected workflow designed around the realities of municipal service delivery.

AI-Powered Omnichannel Contact Center Solution

AI-Powered Omnichannel Contact Center Solution

Delivering Intelligent Customer Assistance with Human Oversight

Overview

Customer support teams handle a constant stream of questions across voice, chat, email, and other channels. Responding quickly while knowing when to involve a live representative can be challenging, especially as support volumes grow.

CloudWave developed an AI-powered contact center solution that provides autonomous lower-tier support across voice, chat, email, and text. Built with Salesforce Agentforce, Data Cloud, and MuleSoft, the solution helps organizations respond faster to routine requests while ensuring more complex situations are routed to live representatives.

The Challenge

Modern contact centers must balance growing customer expectations with limited support resources. Routine inquiries can consume valuable time that detracts from availability to help customers facing more complex situations. If experienced representatives are tied up with simple admin tasks, they won’t be able to provide personalized assistance to the customers who really need it.

Organizations also need confidence that AI is using trusted information and can work with their existing business systems. The goal is to improve response times without sacrificing accuracy or making it harder to involve a live representative when needed.

The Solution

CloudWave designed an AI-powered contact center that delivers a unified support experience across voice, chat, email, and text channels. Salesforce Agentforce and Data Cloud allow the solution to provide responses based on approved knowledge sources, while MuleSoft integrations retrieve external information and complete actions when needed.

The solution automatically detects the complexity of requests and assigns tiers to each inquiry. It supports autonomous Tier 0 and Tier 1 assistance while preserving a human-in-the-loop approach for requests that require empathy, judgment, or additional investigation. Rather than relying on hardcoded trigger words, prompt-driven instructions help determine when conversations should remain automated and when they should be transferred to a live representative.

Demonstrating Live AI Support

CloudWave’s solution can be demonstrated through a series of customer service scenarios that highlight both AI-assisted support and human collaboration.

The AI agent interprets customer requests, retrieves information from approved knowledge sources, and uses MuleSoft integrations to complete external actions when needed. For each request, the system determines whether it could resolve the issue automatically or route it to a live representative.

The demonstration also highlights the solution’s human handoff capabilities. Instead of relying only on predefined keywords, the AI evaluates each conversation to determine when a live representative should step in. 

To see the demonstration in action, contact our team.

Results

The solution outlines how AI can answer routine questions while making it easy to involve a live representative when additional support is needed.

Key capabilities include:

  • Autonomous Tier 0 and Tier 1 support
  • Omnichannel interactions across voice, chat, email, and text
  • Knowledge grounding through Salesforce Data Cloud
  • MuleSoft integrations for external actions and information retrieval
  • Prompt-driven escalation logic
  • Human handoff for complex or sensitive situations
  • Consistent responses across communication channels
  • Configurable AI-assisted customer interactions
  • Scalable support across multiple customer service programs
  • AI-powered customer service with human oversight

Rather than replacing live representatives, the solution helps customer support teams spend less time on routine requests and more time assisting customers with complex needs. Human representatives remain available for situations that require additional expertise, giving customers the support they need while allowing routine requests to be handled automatically.

Automating IT Service Management with MuleSoft Agent Fabric and Amazon Bedrock

Automating IT Service Management with MuleSoft Agent Fabric and Amazon Bedrock

Improving Service Desk Efficiency Through Intelligent Automation

Overview

Organizations often rely on support teams to manage large volumes of routine requests, ranging from policy questions to user access changes and application issues. While many of these requests follow established procedures, they still require manual triage and intervention, leading to delays, inconsistent responses, and unnecessary workloads for support personnel.

CloudWave developed an agentic IT service management (ITSM) architecture designed to automate common support scenarios while maintaining appropriate human oversight and full auditability. By combining ServiceNow, MuleSoft Agent Fabric, Amazon Bedrock, Salesforce, and Amazon Connect, the solution enables requests to be intelligently routed, resolved automatically when possible, or escalated to the appropriate teams when human intervention is required.

The Challenge

Traditional service desk operations often require support teams to spend valuable time handling repetitive requests and manually routing incidents. This can result in delayed responses, service level agreement (SLA) breaches, inconsistent policy interpretation, and customer dissatisfaction.

Organizations need a way to automate routine tasks without sacrificing governance, accuracy, or visibility. At the same time, support teams must maintain complete audit trails and ensure more complex requests are directed to the right personnel.

The Solution

CloudWave designed an agentic ITSM architecture that brings together multiple technologies to support request intake, orchestration, knowledge retrieval, automated actions, and human escalation.

ServiceNow serves as the system of record for incidents and audit history, while MuleSoft Agent Fabric acts as the orchestration layer responsible for determining how each request should be handled. Depending on the type of request, the system can retrieve information from an Amazon Bedrock-powered knowledge base, execute actions within Salesforce, or route incidents to human teams for review and resolution.

Amazon Connect and Amazon Lex provide voice capabilities, allowing callers to interact with the same orchestration framework through phone-based conversations. Every interaction, including work notes, customer comments, transcripts, and audio recordings, is captured within ServiceNow to provide a complete and auditable history.

Proof of Concept Demonstration

CloudWave’s tool demonstrates several scenarios that showcase how the architecture handles different types of service requests.

1. Human-in-the-Loop Escalation

When a request falls outside the scope of automation, the system recognizes that it cannot resolve the issue independently and automatically routes the incident to the appropriate application owner group. This ensures that requests requiring human expertise are assigned to the right team without manual triage.

2. Salesforce Action Automation

The architecture can automate Salesforce administrative requests such as permission set assignments. After any required approvals are obtained, MuleSoft Agent Fabric orchestrates the action, executes the request within Salesforce, and updates the incident with the outcome. The request is completed without requiring manual effort from support personnel.

3. Knowledge Base Automation

For policy-related questions, the system retrieves information from an Amazon Bedrock-powered knowledge base and provides grounded responses based on approved source documents. The response is returned directly to the user and documented within the ServiceNow incident, helping ensure consistent policy communication.

4. Voice-Based Support

Using Amazon Connect and Amazon Lex, callers can ask questions through a voice interface. The system interprets the request, retrieves information from the knowledge base, delivers a spoken response, and automatically creates and resolves the corresponding ServiceNow ticket. Audio recordings and transcripts are preserved as part of the incident record.

Results

The proof of concept demonstrated how agentic automation can support service desk operations while preserving governance and human oversight.

Key capabilities include:

  • Automated routing of out-of-scope requests
  • Human-in-the-loop escalation workflows
  • Zero-touch Salesforce administrative actions
  • Knowledge base retrieval using Amazon Bedrock
  • Voice-enabled support through Amazon Connect and Amazon Lex
  • Consistent policy responses grounded in approved source content
  • Unified orchestration through MuleSoft Agent Fabric
  • End-to-end audit trails within ServiceNow
  • Automatic ticket generation and resolution
  • Multi-channel support across chat, web, email, and voice

By combining intelligent orchestration with auditability and controlled automation, CloudWave demonstrated a scalable approach to improving service desk operations while ensuring requests reach the right destination with the appropriate level of human involvement.

Modernizing Sales Operations for Da Miano and Graham Through CRM and Business Systems Evaluation

Modernizing Sales Operations for Da Miano and Graham Through CRM and Business Systems Evaluation

Improving Visibility, Collaboration, and Long-Term Scalability

Overview

Our client, Da Miano and Graham, is an export management company that serves as the international sales department for manufacturers of fire protection and emergency services products.

As the organization evaluated opportunities to modernize its operations, leadership identified several challenges related to information management, sales visibility, and aging business systems. Customer interactions were primarily managed through email and phone calls, while project files were stored on a shared local server. This made it difficult to maintain a centralized view of customer relationships, sales activities, and business performance.

To address these challenges, CloudWave worked with the client to evaluate technology solutions that could support improved collaboration, greater visibility into sales operations, and future business growth.

CRM Evaluation

One of Da Miano and Graham’s primary goals was to establish a centralized CRM platform that would provide greater visibility into sales activities and customer interactions.

Previously, sales information was often spread across individual inboxes and shared file locations, making it difficult to consistently track conversations, opportunities, and follow-up activities. Leadership also wanted improved insight into pipeline activity and forecasting.

CloudWave worked with the Da Miano and Graham team to evaluate CRM options and identify an approach that aligned with both immediate business needs and long-term objectives. Rather than attempting to transform every process at once, the client chose to explore a phased strategy focused on improving visibility, standardizing information management, and supporting user adoption.

Results and Next Steps

Through this engagement, CloudWave helped the client assess its current environment, identify modernization priorities, and establish a roadmap for future technology investments.

CloudWave also integrated Microsoft Outlook with Salesforce, helping connect customer communications with CRM records. By associating email activity with customer and opportunity information, the organization gained a more centralized view of sales interactions and relationship management activities.

In addition, CloudWave integrated RingCentral with Salesforce to automatically capture call activity, including call logs and notes. This helped ensure important customer conversations were documented within the CRM and available alongside other sales and customer information.

By taking a phased approach to CRM adoption and business systems modernization, Da Miano and Graham is better positioned to improve visibility, support collaboration, and prepare for future operational needs.

FormGenie AI: Automating Document-Driven Workflows with Creatio

FormGenie AI: Automating Document-Driven Workflows with Creatio

Organizations across every industry rely on documents like contracts, invoices, forms, certifications, reports, to run day-to-day operations. But because these documents arrive in multiple formats (PDFs, scans, unstructured text), staff often spend hours manually extracting information, retyping values, and updating CRM or ERP records. These repetitive tasks slow down workflows, introduce errors, and make it harder for teams to operate efficiently.

CloudWave’s FormGenie AI, built natively for the Creatio platform, automates this entire process. The solution reads any uploaded document, extracts key fields with AI, and allows users to populate Creatio records with a single click – turning slow, manual document handling into a fast, reliable, and scalable workflow.

The Challenge

Across finance, procurement, HR, legal, operations, and customer service teams, document-driven processes tend to follow an inefficient pattern:

  • Staff receive a document
  • They search for the key values
  • Copy/paste or manually retype them into a Creatio form
  • Double-check for accuracy
  • Attach the file to the record and move on

This creates bottlenecks across the organization. Even small mistakes like missed fields, typos, incorrect amounts, or mis-entered dates – can cascade into downstream problems such as reporting inconsistencies, compliance risks, or costly rework.

Teams need a reliable way to reduce manual entry, standardize document processing, and increase accuracy without redesigning their existing systems.

The Solution: Creatio FormGenie AI

FormGenie AI uses intelligent document processing to extract structured information directly from uploaded attachments. Users can upload a document through Creatio’s standard interface, view all suggested field values, and update the record instantly.

Key Capabilities

Automated Data Extraction: Users simply upload a PDF or .docx to a Creatio record. FormGenie AI analyzes the document and identifies relevant fields like names, dates, amounts, IDs, line items, and more.

Easy Document Selection & Review: All processed attachments appear in a dropdown list, making it effortless to choose which document to extract from.

One-Click Field Population: With the “Update” action, users apply extracted values directly into Creatio fields, eliminating retyping and manual cross-checking.

Human-in-the-Loop Control: Users maintain full visibility and control. They can review suggested values, adjust them if needed, and ensure accuracy before finalizing updates.

Workflow Efficiency + Compliance Support: By reducing errors and providing clear traceability from each extracted value back to the source document, FormGenie AI supports audit readiness and regulatory alignment, especially for data-sensitive industries.

How It Works

1. Upload or Attach a Document

Users add a file like an invoice, contract, form, agreement, or report to the Attachments section of any Creatio record.

2. FormGenie AI Processes the File

The system automatically reads the document in the background, analyzing structure, text, and key-value pairs.

3. View Suggested Field Values

The user selects the processed document and sees all extracted data points presented in a structured list.

4. Apply Values with a Single Click

With one action, all validated values populate the record’s fields, preserving accuracy and saving significant time. 

5. Continue Workflow with Clean, Structured Data

Once updated, Creatio automations, approvals, and downstream workflows use the standardized data instantly.

Impact: Faster Workflows, Fewer Errors, Better Data Integrity

By bringing AI-powered document extraction directly into Creatio, FormGenie AI helps streamline document-heavy workflows and reduce manual data entry across key departments. It improves data quality with consistently structured information, accelerates processing for forms and invoices, and strengthens compliance through clear traceability to the original document.

By eliminating repetitive tasks and minimizing errors or rework, teams can process higher volumes of documents with greater confidence and far less effort, without changing their existing workflows or systems.

Document Workflow: Turning Healthcare Paperwork Into Actionable Data in Salesforce

Document Workflow: Turning Healthcare Paperwork Into Actionable Data in Salesforce

Operational staff and healthcare teams depend on fast, accurate access to information buried inside clinical reports, imaging summaries, lab documents, and medical equipment records. Yet most of this data arrives as unstructured PDFs, images, or multi-page reports that clinicians, analysts, or compliance teams must analyze manually. This slows decision-making, increases administrative burden, and creates risks when critical findings are missed.

CloudWave’s Document Workflow Agent, built on Salesforce Agentforce, automates this entire process. The agent reads any uploaded healthcare document – PDFs, images, text files – and instantly extracts key insights, highlights abnormalities, and converts the content into structured formats with full traceability. These capabilities also extend beyond healthcare, supporting any organization that needs to standardize and operationalize information from unstructured documents.

How Document Workflow Works

Using Salesforce-native multimodal AI, the agent accepts clinical narratives, imaging results, specialist reports, certifications, scanned documents, and more. Users can upload a file and ask questions such as:

  • “Summarize the key findings in this report.”
  • “Highlight any abnormal results in this file.”
  • “Extract the diagnosis, impressions, and recommendations.”
  • “Standardize this document into structured data.”
  • “Show the alignment mapping linking standardized text back to the original document.”

The agent produces:

  • A clear, AI-generated summary.
  • Highlighted abnormal or critical findings.
  • A structured JSON version of the data.
  • A markdown or “clinical English” standardized document.
  • Visual alignment mapping that shows exactly where each extracted detail came from.
  • Output ready for dashboards, analytics, and downstream workflows.

These outputs are fully traceable to the original document, ensuring confidence, transparency, and audit readiness.

By centralizing document analysis inside Salesforce, the Document Workflow Agent gives healthcare organizations a single, reliable source of truth for clinical and operational documentation. Instead of juggling PDFs, imaging files, and scanned reports across multiple systems, teams can review standardized outputs, verify findings, and push structured data directly into downstream workflows.

This not only accelerates administrative processes but also improves collaboration between clinicians, analysts, compliance staff, and operational teams who rely on consistent, searchable information to make timely decisions.

Key Features

  • Instant document analysis for PDFs, images, and text.
  • Multiple standardized output formats: JSON, markdown, clinical-English summaries.
  • Visual highlighting for fast review of abnormalities or critical content.
  • Precise source grounding that maps every extracted detail to exact document locations.
  • Semantic alignment to ensure consistency across all generated versions.
  • Integration with Salesforce dashboards using structured insights.
  • Significant time savings for clinicians and operational staff.

Results for Healthcare and other Organizations

  • Multiple hours of manual document review reduced to minutes.
  • Fewer overlooked findings thanks to automated highlighting.
  • Consistent, structured data ready for dashboards and automation.
  • Improved compliance readiness with traceable audit trails.
  • Faster clinical and operational decisions.
  • Reduced workload for clinicians, analysts, and compliance teams.

By transforming unstructured documents into structured, searchable data, the Document Workflow Agent helps organizations operate with greater speed, accuracy, and consistency.

Clinicians and operational teams can spend less time digging through reports and more time focusing on patient care and critical decision-making. These efficiencies strengthen day-to-day operations and support a more reliable, data-driven healthcare environment.
