For HR, operations, finance, or IT teams, workflow automation has long been essential to improving efficiency. However, traditional process building is often complex and time-consuming, requiring manual field setup, logic definition, and node configuration.

Now, with just one sentence, you can generate a complete workflow.

That’s the power of Yeeflow’s new AI Workflow Builder:

  • Generate forms and workflows from natural language or uploaded documents
  • Automatically create approval steps, task assignments, and conditional logic
  • Support visual editing with no coding required

Let’s explore how it works through real-world use cases and how different departments can benefit.

Scenario 1: Business Travel Request Automation

Use case: The operations team needs a travel request form that automatically routes through the department manager, finance, and admin for approval.

In the AI Builder, the admin simply enters:

"Create a travel request workflow with fields for departure date, destination, purpose, and estimated cost, and approval by manager and finance."

Then selects a layout and control style, clicks Generate, and the AI will:

  • Build a form with the necessary fields
  • Generate an approval flow with task assignment nodes

After generation, you can refine:

  • Approval roles and conditions (e.g., “If amount > 1000, require director approval”)
  • Notification settings and trigger rules

Scenario 2: Generate a Workflow from a Requirement Document

If you already have an internal process document (PDF or Word), you can upload it directly.

Yeeflow’s AI will recognize field definitions and workflow logic, then automatically generate a structured form and matching workflow. This is especially useful when formal documentation already exists.

Tips for high-quality input: To get the best results, try to include the following elements in your document:

  • Field Definitions: Clearly list all required form fields. For each field, note its name, control type (e.g., text box, dropdown, date), and whether it is required.
  • Business Context: Briefly explain what the workflow is for—for example, “This is used for employee domestic travel requests.”
  • Approval Steps: Outline the full approval chain. Specify each approver’s role and the order in which they should review—for example, “Step 1: Manager → Step 2: Finance.”
  • Conditional Logic (Optional): Include any rules such as “If the amount exceeds $10,000, require Director approval.”
  • Workflow Diagram (Optional): A simple visual diagram helps. You can use tools like Visio, Draw.io, or even a hand-drawn sketch to show the sequence and decision points.The clearer and more structured the document, the more accurate the AI-generated results.

The clearer and more structured the document, the more accurate the AI-generated results.

Scenario 3: Smart Logic with Conditional Paths and Connectors

AI Workflow Builder doesn’t just create linear processes—it can handle logic branching and structural merging.

  • Inclusive Gateway Action: Creates multiple approval paths based on conditions. For example:

“If amount > 10,000 → Director Approval, else → Finance Approval”

  • Connector Action: Used to merge multiple execution paths or organize the workflow without user interaction. It ensures clean and logical flow transitions.

This enables workflows to support:

  • Parallel approval by multiple departments (e.g., HR and IT)
  • Dynamic routing based on logic
  • Clean reconvergence after conditional or parallel paths

When Should You Use the AI Workflow Builder?

Use AI Builder when:

  • You need a prototype quickly
  • You have a business process but no technical resources
  • You want to digitize paper or email-based workflows fast

Typical use cases include:

  • HR: onboarding, leave requests
  • Finance: expense claims, purchase approvals
  • Legal: contract reviews, compliance checks

What Happens After Generation?

Once the workflow is generated, you can:

  1. Refine field labels and layout in the visual form designer
  2. Review workflow steps, approvals, and conditions
  3. Click publish to deploy the workflow into use

Conclusion: From Request to Automation—All in Minutes

AI Workflow Builder makes process creation faster and smarter. Without writing code, you can turn a sentence or document into a working form and workflow—saving time and reducing errors.

Whether you’re an operations leader, HR manager, or IT administrator, AI can help you turn business intent into a functioning automated system.
