Purple Orange AI
Purple Orange AI / Chicago services
Workflow automation for Chicago businesses.
Reduce the copying, chasing, and manual handoffs between your inbox, documents, and business systems. We map the process, connect the right tools, and use AI where the task needs interpretation.
Find the handoff that keeps breaking
Start with the work that crosses systems: an inquiry arriving by email, information being copied into a CRM, documents being checked, or meeting notes turning into follow-up tasks. We trace the normal path and the exceptions before choosing what to automate.
Use rules for rules. Use AI for interpretation.
A fixed routing rule may need a straightforward integration. Summarizing a document or drafting a reply may benefit from AI. We choose the simpler dependable approach for each step and define where a person needs to review the result.
Agree how the workflow should behave
The build scope names the source system, trigger, output, permissions, and owner. We define what happens when data is missing, a system is unavailable, or a request is repeated. Testing covers the agreed paths before the team takes over.
Start with a small, measurable install
A suitable draft-and-approve workflow can fit the $2,500 Reviewable Agent install: one recurring job and one or two tools, with a first live draft in seven days after access is granted. A broader implementation may need the $12,000 sprint. The intake determines fit; not every automation qualifies for the entry package.
Measure the result against the manual process
Before building, record task frequency, time spent, rework, and review effort. After launch, compare completed work against that baseline, including the time people spend checking the output and the cost of running it. The goal is a useful operational improvement, not an impressive demo.
See the operating pattern
Purple Orange Agent is our own product for recurring founder and team work. Its workspace shows the draft, source context, and human review step behind this approach. It is product evidence, not a client result or a claim of measured savings.
Prepare for the conversation
Questions before you book
Do we have to replace our CRM or email system?
We first assess the integrations available in your existing tools. Any access limitations or platform changes are discussed before the scope is agreed.
Does every automation need AI?
No. Predictable rules are often better handled with ordinary integrations. AI is useful when language, variation, or context needs interpretation.
Can you automate a process with sensitive data?
We assess data sensitivity and access requirements before accepting the scope. The $2,500 package does not include HIPAA or SOC 2 programs; work with those requirements needs separate assessment.
Bring one workflow
Tell Max what repeats, which tools it touches, and who would review the result. No confidential records are needed for the first conversation. We will assess fit and agree the next step.
