How to start with AI automation in business

A team can pay for an AI subscription and still spend hours collecting information, repeating instructions and checking the result.

It's quite easy to select and start using several subscriptions such as Codex, ChatGPT, n8n, Make and others. But it definitely takes time to decide what exactly it should impact in the business. And that's where we can step in.

According to Eurostat's survey of selected business sectors, 20% of EU businesses with at least 10 employees used AI in 2025, compared to 13.5% in 2024. For a business considering AI, the next step is to decide where it can help and what result to expect.

Start with a clear goal

At Initiaira, we agree what the project should improve and how to compare the plan with the actual result. For a weekly report, that might mean preparation time and manual corrections, including any checking or maintenance the system adds.

Understand the process and company context

We follow the task from its initial sources to the expected results, identifying required systems and where a real person needs to be involved.

When the task depends on company knowledge, we bring documents, goals, rules and past decisions into one knowledge base. That context supports search, analysis and decisions, with indicated sources.

For a client running large-scale e-commerce operations, we built a system to review correspondence, business plans and financial tables together. It helps to identify discrepancies between the initial plan and the supporting figures. The benefit is less time piecing information together and clearer follow-up on agreements.

Choose the approach that fits

An existing product may be enough. Ordinary automation can move information between systems according to clear rules. Custom AI solutions can support analysis that existing products cannot handle well enough, using the company's own knowledge base.

We compare these options against the agreed goal, then review the result and make adjustments if necessary before applying the system to another process.
