# AI automation for small businesses: one workflow in one week.

<https://klyx.fr/en/services/ai-automation>

From €2,400 excl. VAT

From €2,400 excl. VAT. We wire one workflow into your tools: a trigger, an AI step, an action. Invoices, quotes or follow-ups, live in 4 to 5 working days, with a human approval step wherever a mistake is costly.

## Your team retypes what a machine can read.

An invoice arrives by email. Someone opens the PDF, copies the amount and the VAT into the accounting tool, then files it. Quotes and follow-ups take the same path. Each task takes two minutes, but it comes back all day long. An automation with an AI step does this work well, as long as its scope is clear.

- PDFs retyped by hand into the ERP
- Follow-ups sent whenever someone remembers
- A Zap built two years ago that nobody dares to touch

## What you get, at a fixed price.

One simple workflow at a fixed price, light monitoring if you want it, and the AI Sprint when the need goes beyond one workflow.

### AI Sprint

From €4,500 excl. VAT · 2 weeks

One workflow in production, with the scope fixed before work starts.

- An agent that makes decisions, or a flow across several tools

All prices exclude VAT.

## Three examples, with a person in the loop.

Each workflow keeps a human approval step wherever a mistake is costly. These are typical examples, not client projects.

### Supplier invoices

Email + PDF → AI extraction → Accounts check → ERP entry

The PDF received by email becomes a draft in the accounting tool.

### Quotes

Form → AI draft → Review → Sent to client

The form request becomes a prefilled quote, reviewed before it goes out.

### Payment reminders

Due date → Drafted reminder → Owner sign-off → Email sent

An overdue invoice triggers a reminder written from the client's history.

An autonomous agent, a test set or an integration across several tools are outside the package: that is the AI Sprint.

## Questions about automation.

### What is the difference between AI automation and the AI Sprint?

AI automation is one linear workflow: a trigger, an AI step that reads or drafts, an action. The AI makes no decision on its own and the workflow does not connect five tools. As soon as the process needs to choose between several actions, or act across several tools with a test set, it is an AI Sprint, delivered in two weeks.

### Which tool does the workflow run in?

In your own n8n or Make account, in your name, so you stay in control. If you don't have a tool yet, we help you pick one and open the account. We also hand over the workflow export, which you can give to another provider if you ever change partners.

### How much does the workflow cost once it is live?

You pay the vendors directly: the automation tool, such as n8n or Make, and the AI model's API. For a small volume these subscriptions usually stay modest, but they depend on how many documents you process. We give you a costed estimate for your case during scoping, before we start, so you know what to expect.

### What if the AI gets an invoice wrong?

That is planned for. We add a human approval step wherever a mistake is costly: the person sees the extracted fields, fixes them if needed and approves. The workflow also emails you when a run fails. Before launch, we test the AI step on 10 of your real documents to see where it gets things wrong.

### Do my documents end up at OpenAI?

The AI step sends the document's content to a model provider's API. By default, these business APIs are not used to train models. If your documents are sensitive, we pick a provider hosted in the EU or mask some fields before sending. We settle this during scoping, before the first step is written.

### What if I need more later?

The AI automation price is credited 100% against an AI Sprint signed within 60 days. So you can start small, watch the workflow run on your real documents, then move to a fuller agent without paying twice for the discovery of your processes. After 60 days, the two stay separate fixed-price packages.
