Pick your role to load the tasks your team really does. Score each one for how often it comes round and how much judgement it takes, and your own automation backlog takes shape in front of you.
This site runs entirely in your browser. Nothing is saved on a server; nothing is sent anywhere.
Begin with one task, the one at the top that quietly eats the most time. There is no need to take them all on at once.
Describe it the way you would explain it to a new starter: what goes in, what comes out, and the rules in between. That description is most of the work.
Build a rough first version, live with it for a fortnight, fix what annoys you, then move to the next. Trying to automate everything at once tends to leave you trusting none of it.
A short, practical guide that takes your automate-first list and shows you how to build the first one, including which tools to build with, and where an off-the-shelf tool will serve you better.
Connect with me and send the words “automation guide”, and I will send you a copy. Do pass this on to anyone in TA or HR who would find it useful.
