AI, Agentforce & conversational workflows

AI and agents for the work your team does every day.

We help connect AI to Salesforce, Slack and your business processes, from assessing an idea to testing and implementing it.

Start with a useful question

Which task takes more time than it should?

Preparing a handover, finding project context or drafting an update are useful places to start.

The best starting point is a task your team already understands, with a clear way to check the result.

Built around your processes, data and people.

Practical possibilities

Four tasks worth exploring.

These are examples to explore, shaped around your systems and readiness.

Sales handovers

Bring together opportunity context, commitments and next steps for a colleague to review.

Service response drafts

Use approved knowledge and case context to prepare a useful starting point for your service team.

Project updates

Turn permitted project information into a draft of progress, decisions and next actions.

Actions from a conversation

Start a guided workflow through chat, with permissions and review before business records change.

See the possibilities

Ask in Slack. Review the output.

An assistant gathers permitted information and prepares a draft. This sample conversation shows a priorities list, project update and statement of work returned for review.

Fictional Slack-style conversation: Alex asks the Priorities, Project and Scope agents for help. They prepare a priorities list, project update and statement-of-work draft, all held for human review.

01 · Priorities

A priorities list

Alex: “@Priorities show today’s priorities”

The agent prepares a short list: review the sales handover, confirm the service owner and prepare for playback.

02 · Project update

A project update

Alex: “@Project prepare the project update”

The agent drafts progress, open decisions and next steps from approved project notes. No update is sent.

03 · Scope

A scope draft

Alex: “@Scope draft a statement of work”

The agent prepares scope, deliverables and open questions. Assumptions and commercials still need review.

04 · Human review

Human review

Alex: “Keep these as drafts. I’ll review them.”

All three outputs wait for human review. Nothing is shared and no business records are changed.

Sample conversation using invented content. Available actions depend on the connections and permissions we implement.

How the pieces fit

A conversation connected to your business.

A request can bring together the right information, tools and specialist workflows. Salesforce remains the business platform beneath it, with access controls and human review designed into the process.

Workflow

A request from your team

For example: prepare a sales handover in Slack

Workflow coordination

Understand the task · apply permissions · choose the next step

Permitted tools & business data

Records, approved knowledge and workflows

The appropriate AI capability

Agentforce or an optional model such as ChatGPT or Claude

A result ready for review

Check the draft and approve any permitted action

Salesforce

Your core business records, processes and permissions

MCP setup & connected AI

Connect AI to the information it needs.

An assistant is more useful when it can work with the information your team actually uses. Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard for connecting compatible AI applications to tools and data sources. It can be part of the connection between a conversation and your business systems.

Less copying between systems

Let an assistant retrieve permitted information from connected sources, instead of asking people to paste the same context into each task.

Better-informed drafts

Bring relevant records and approved knowledge into summaries, handovers and updates, with sources your team can check.

Fewer manual handovers

Connect a request to a defined workflow, from gathering information to preparing an output or proposing a permitted action.

A foundation you can extend

Where compatible tools are available, reuse a standard connection approach as you introduce more useful AI workflows.

What setup involves

What we configure and test.

We help identify the right use case, assess suitable connectors and configure the access needed for the agreed workflow.

  1. Choose the task and systems. Define the outcome, information needed and connector compatibility.
  2. Set the access boundaries. Configure authentication, limit permissions and separate read-only access from actions that change records.
  3. Design review and exception handling. Agree what needs human approval, how failures are handled and what activity is recorded.
  4. Test, document and hand over. Validate behaviour with representative scenarios, including denied access, and agree ownership for ongoing support.

MCP is a connection standard, not a security guarantee. Access controls, approval steps and monitoring need to be implemented and tested. Salesforce, Slack and other systems may use MCP, native connectors or APIs depending on the use case.

A sound foundation

Before an assistant gets access.

Use-case discovery

Start with a practical task across sales, service or operations and define what a useful outcome looks like.

Context & data

Review records, knowledge, data quality, permissions and the information an assistant would need.

Human review & controls

Agree what can be suggested, what needs approval and how actions and exceptions will be recorded.

Choosing the right tool

Choose Agentforce, a custom assistant or conventional automation according to the work and the constraints.

From idea to useful workflow

From evaluation to implementation.

01

Evaluate

Agree the task, value, constraints and readiness.

02

Prototype

Make the proposed workflow tangible using suitable sample information.

03

Validate

Check quality, permissions, review points and exception handling with your team.

04

Implement

Introduce the agreed solution, document it and support adoption.

If conventional automation is the better answer, we will recommend it. Your business does not need a complex agent system to make meaningful progress.

What would you like your systems to do better?

Bring us a task your team would like help with. We will explore the options and the controls it needs.
