Frequently asked questions

### What is "process debt"?
Process debt refers to the accumulation of manual workflows and reliance on human bottlenecks within an organisation's operations. This leads to inefficiencies and lost time.

### How can AI help reduce manual admin?
AI systems can be designed to automate repetitive tasks currently performed manually. By removing these manual operations and human bottlenecks, AI removes process debt and frees up employee time.

### What happens when manual admin is eliminated?
